Possible Causes
Tripped house breaker, faulty outlet, damaged power cord, failed main control board, internal thermal fuse open
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Before opening any panels, verify power at the outlet with a known-good device. Unplug the cooler before inspecting internal wiring.
- Step 1 – Check house power: Reset any tripped breakers or replace blown fuses in the home electrical panel. Test the outlet with a lamp.
- Step 2 – Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, burns, or crushed sections on the Café wine cooler's power cord. Replace the cord if damaged.
- Step 3 – Verify internal connections: Remove the rear lower panel and confirm that the power cord is securely connected to the main control board or terminal block.
- Step 4 – Check main control board: Look for burnt components or a blown onboard fuse. Some boards have a replaceable fuse; if blown, replace only with the same rating and investigate the cause.
- Step 5 – Replace main control board: If power is present at the board but there is no response from the unit, replace the Café-compatible main control board.
If you are not comfortable working with line voltage, contact a qualified technician.
