Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Check that the socket is live using another appliance before opening the washer. Always unplug before internal checks.
- Check wall outlet and fuse: Verify the circuit breaker or fuse has not tripped. Replace the plug fuse (if fitted) with the correct rating.
- Inspect power cord: Look for cuts or damage along the cord.
- Check mains filter: Remove the rear/top panel and locate the mains interference filter where the cord enters. Ensure connectors are secure and not burnt.
If the machine still shows no signs of life, the control board power supply may have failed and should be tested and replaced by a professional.
