How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the breaker and unplug the unit before inspecting power connections.

  • Check power cord and terminal block: Tighten any loose screws and inspect for heat damage.

  • Inspect control boards: Look for signs of overheating or corrosion on the main and UI boards.
  • Replace suspect board: If flickering persists after securing power connections, replace the main control or UI board as indicated by further diagnosis.
