Washer will not start at all; no lights or display

Safety first: Do not open live electrical panels. Unplug the washer before internal checks.

Steps to restore power:

• Check outlet and breaker: Test the wall socket with another appliance. Reset any tripped breakers or replace blown fuses as needed.
• Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, burns, or kinks. If damaged, replace the cord assembly.
• Check mains filter: With the top or rear panel removed (power unplugged), locate the mains filter module where the cord enters. Inspect for burns or bulging components. Replace if visibly damaged.

When to call a technician: If the outlet and cord are good but the machine remains dead, the control board power supply likely needs professional repair or replacement.
