How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure the outlet is safe; do not work on live circuits.

Basic checks:

  • Test the wall outlet with another appliance.
  • Check the household breaker or fuse.

Inspect washer power path:

  • Unplug the washer and remove the top cover.
  • Check the power cord entry, filter (EMI filter), and on/off switch for loose connections or burn marks.
  • Some Brandt models have an internal fuse on the PCB; check and replace only with identical rating if blown, and investigate cause.

If power still does not reach the control board or the board shows signs of damage, the main PCB or power module must be replaced by a qualified technician.
