Blown mains fuse in plug, Faulty power cord, Defective mains interference filter (EMI filter), Failed main control PCB power supply
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure your hands are dry when working with plugs and sockets. Do not open sealed electronic modules unless qualified.
- Check wall outlet and fuse: Test the socket with another appliance. If OK, remove the Rangemaster plug and inspect/replace the fuse with the correct rating (usually 13A in the UK).
- Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, burns, or crushed sections of the cable. If damaged, the entire cord set must be replaced.
- Check mains switch: Ensure any external wall switch or isolator is turned on.
- Internal checks (advanced): With the machine unplugged, remove the top cover and locate the mains interference filter and main PCB. Check for loose connectors or obvious burn marks. A failed filter or PCB will require replacement by a technician.
