No Power Diagnostic Flow
Systematic check of power input path from wall outlet through machine electrical components to identify where power is lost.
Qualified technician handoff: stop before live electrical testing, sealed-system refrigeration work, compressor service, or protected-compartment access unless a qualified technician is handling the work.

- 1
Verify wall outlet power
operator-intermediatelowUse a known-good lamp or outlet tester to confirm the wall outlet provides power. Do not use the vending machine for this test.
Outlet TesterExpected: Outlet tester indicates power is present or absent.
Evidence to note: meter-reading
- 2
Inspect power cord
operator-intermediatelowVisually inspect the full length of the power cord from the wall plug to the machine entry point for cuts, kinks, discoloration, or exposed conductors. Unplug before close inspection of the machine-end connection.
Flashlight or Work LightStop conditions- exposed-wiring
- cord-heat-damage
Expected: Power cord is intact with no visible damage.
Evidence to note: photo
- 3
Check main fuse or circuit breaker
operator-intermediatehighWith the machine unplugged, locate the main fuse holder or circuit breaker. Inspect the fuse visually for break or discoloration. If a multimeter is available and you are trained, check fuse continuity. Do not open live electrical panels.
Qualified technician handoff: stop before live electrical testing, sealed-system refrigeration work, compressor service, or protected-compartment access unless a qualified technician is handling the work.

- scorch-marks-on-fuse-holder
Expected: Fuse is intact with continuity, or identified as blown.
Evidence to note: meter-reading
- 4
Replace main fuse
operator-intermediatehighReplace the fuse with one of identical rating and type only. The fuse rating must match the original specification. If the replacement fuse blows immediately, do not install a third fuse. Stop and hand off to a qualified technician.

Expected: Machine powers on after fuse replacement.

Check internal power distribution
technician-advancedlive-voltageIf fuse and cord are good but machine is still dead, the issue may be at the internal power supply, transformer, or controller connection. This requires live-voltage testing and must be performed by a qualified technician.
Qualified technician handoff: stop before live electrical testing, sealed-system refrigeration work, compressor service, or protected-compartment access unless a qualified technician is handling the work.

- unsure-of-safety
Expected: Power is traced to the point of failure.
Evidence to note: meter-reading
- 6
Power restored - confirm normal operation
operator-intermediatelowWith power restored, verify the display activates, keypad responds, and no error codes are shown. Run a test vend if the machine is loaded.
Expected: Machine operates normally through a full vend cycle.
