How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Ensure the outlet is safe and not overloaded. Unplug the unit before opening any panels.
Steps to troubleshoot no power:
- Check outlet: Plug a lamp or other device into the same outlet to confirm it has power. Reset any tripped GFCI or breaker.
- Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, burns, or kinks. If damaged, replace the cord set.
- Check power switch: Ensure the unit's power switch is in the ON position and not loose or broken.
- Internal fuse: Remove the rear or bottom panel to locate any inline or board-mounted fuse. Test with a multimeter and replace with the same rating if blown.
- Control board: If power is reaching the board but there is no response, the main control PCB may be failed and should be replaced.
