Possible Causes

Blown line fuse on control board, Faulty power cord, Defective main control board power supply, Loose mains connector inside cabinet

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Ensure the outlet is switched off or unplug the cord before opening any panels. Mains voltage can be lethal.

  • Verify outlet: Test the wall outlet with another appliance or a tester. Reset any tripped breaker or GFCI.
  • Inspect power cord: Check for cuts, burns, or kinks. Replace if damaged.
  • Check internal connections (advanced): Remove the top panel and locate the mains input connector on the main control board. Ensure it is fully seated and wires are secure.
  • Fuse check: Some Electrolux boards have an onboard fuse. If accessible and visibly blown, the board or fuse may need replacement, but the underlying cause (short) must be found.

If you are not trained to work with mains circuits, contact a professional technician.
