Possible Causes

Blown internal fuse on PCB, Faulty power cord, Loose mains connection at terminal block, Failed main control PCB power supply

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Ensure the outlet is switched off or unplugged before opening any panels.

  • Check outlet: Test the wall socket with another appliance to confirm power is available.
  • Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, kinks, or burn marks. Replace the cord if damaged.
  • Access terminal block: Remove the rear panel and verify that the mains wires are securely fastened to the terminal block or PCB input.
  • Check internal fuse: Many Gorenje PCBs have a small fuse. Test for continuity and replace with the same rating if blown. If it blows again immediately, there is likely a short on the PCB or wiring that needs professional diagnosis.
  • Replace PCB: If the fuse is good and power is present at the board but nothing powers up, the PCB power supply is likely defective and the board should be replaced.
