How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Do not attempt repairs on live circuits. Unplug before inspecting the cord or internal components.
- 1. Check household breaker: Verify the circuit breaker for the refrigerator outlet is not tripped. Reset if necessary.
- 2. Test outlet: Plug in a lamp or tester to confirm the outlet has power.
- 3. Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, burns, or crushed sections. If damaged, replace the power cord assembly.
- 4. Try another outlet: Temporarily plug the refrigerator into a different known-good outlet (no extension cords) to rule out wiring issues.
- 5. Internal fuse/control: If the outlet and cord are good, the internal fuse or power supply on the main control board may have failed. Board replacement is typically required.
