Refrigerator will not start at all, no lights or display.

Safety: Ensure your hands are dry when working with plugs and sockets. Unplug before opening any panels.

Steps:

• 1. Check outlet: Test the wall socket with another appliance to confirm it has power.
• 2. Check plug and fuse (UK models): Inspect the plug fuse and replace with the correct rating if blown.
• 3. Inspect power cord: Look for visible damage. Replace the CDA mains cable if any cuts or burns are present.
• 4. Internal fuse: Some CDA main PCBs have an onboard fuse. Access the PCB and check/replace this fuse only if you are competent; otherwise, have a technician do it.

Warning: If the internal fuse blows again immediately, there is likely a serious internal fault that needs professional diagnosis.
