Machine Completely Dead — No Power
USI USI 3014
Machine Completely Dead — No Power
This section guides you through verifying the entire power chain, from the external source to the machine's internal components, to determine the root cause of zero power.
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.
- Recurring fuse failure: Do not re-energize. Tag machine out of service. Escalate to advanced technician.
- Arcing, sparking, or component venting observed: Unplug immediately. Do not re-energize. Escalate to advanced technician.
- If troubleshooting involves checking the main power input, fuse replacement, or any component related to the primary power source, this must be handled by a qualified technician.
- If arcing, sparking, or component venting is observed at any point, immediately unplug the unit and escalate to a qualified technician.

Where to find this
Use this as orientation before touching the machine. It is location help, not a repair instruction.

- Brings external mains power into the machine and provides primary overcurrent protection.
- Power cord
- Line fuse or circuit breaker
- EMI filter (if equipped)
Do not open energized or protected electrical areas unless a qualified technician or licensed electrician is handling the work.
