For what reason does the Indesit washing machine not turn on, how to fix it?

Washing machines from the manufacturer Indesit are reliable. But they can also fail, causing a lot of trouble for the owner.

Sometimes a household appliance simply does not turn on. How to fix this failure depends on the type of failure. In some cases, it is very easy to eliminate it even on your own, without special knowledge.

In this article we will tell you why the Indesit washing machine does not turn on and how to fix the problem.

Calling a specialist: where to go and how much to pay?

If your washing machine malfunctions, you need to make a decision: fix the problem yourself or entrust this matter to a specialist. If you can’t cope with the failure, you can turn to professionals for help .
You can search for a company that repairs Indesit washing machines on the Internet by indicating the name of your city. The cost of work depends on the complexity of the breakdown, and can vary significantly by region.

It is advisable to seek help from companies that have been providing services on the market for a long time and value their reputation. The master who comes on call carries out repairs and gives a guarantee for his work .

But if you randomly select a specialist from an advertisement, there is a chance that you will fall for scammers and allow a low-skilled technician to approach your equipment. In this case, there will be no confidence that the work to eliminate the failure will be carried out efficiently.

On average, the price for repair work in the capital is within the following limits:

• replacing a button on the control panel – from 1,000 rubles;
• replacement of FPS – from 1,400 rubles;
• replacement of the control unit – from 2,000 rubles, etc.

It should be taken into account that the cost of a new part is paid separately, as well as consumables.
A lot of important and useful information about repairing Indesit washing machines is presented in this section.

Types of engines

Before troubleshooting a washing machine motor, you need to determine the type of unit.

For this purpose, three modern types of engines are produced, their features are presented in the table:

Control module

If after this the indicators do not light up, then the reason is different. Next you should try checking the control module of the Indesit WISLI washing machine. These are microcircuits, the “brains” of the device. You need to change something here only with some experience behind you. A video will help with this work.

Washing machine control module

By the way, the causes of other common Indesit malfunctions also lie in the control boards:

• if all the lights on the panel blink;
• if there are problems with spinning, etc.

When the capacitors on the microcircuit fail, the indicators usually begin to blink simultaneously. Replacing capacitors is the easiest way, but you will need good soldering iron skills and the right model. After replacement, as a rule, the light bulbs stop blinking.

If there are problems with spinning, they also look at the electronic module. This is not an easy task and requires knowledge and preparation. That is why, if the spin cycle does not work correctly, it is advisable to give the board to a specialist.

Device is not working? Why does the Indesit washing machine blink and not turn on? You need to look at the varistor - part of the microcircuit, a resistor necessary to protect the board from voltage surges.

Replacing it is quite simple with your own hands:

1. Remove the powder container. Underneath there are two screws that need to be unscrewed.
2. Remove the control panel.
3. Disassemble the unit and disconnect the board.
4. Find the varistors and check their resistance using a multimeter. Often the part turns black or falls out completely.
5. The burnt varistor is soldered off. It is replaced by another one with similar characteristics. The device should start working.

When using a soldering iron, you need to be careful not to damage the traces and other elements of the printed circuit board. If this happens, most likely, you will no longer be able to do without the help of a specialist.

You should also keep in mind:

1. Varistors are not the only possible malfunction that leads to the Indesit WISLI washing machine not turning on. This is just one of the simple and common ones.
2. In case of inept repair, the microcircuit can be permanently damaged beyond repair. Its cost is approximately 20% of the price of the entire Indesit washing machine.
3. Service centers usually do not repair the board, but install a new one. It’s easier, faster, and most importantly – more profitable. Private craftsmen often undertake repairs. Their repairs will be cheaper, but you should pay attention to their experience and qualifications.

If the indicators light up, burn randomly or go out

The Indesit washing machine may start, but not work, not only because the lock does not turn on, but also due to other malfunctions, for example, a system failure. In this case, the lamps blink randomly or light up and immediately go out. You need to disconnect the machine from the network and wait a few minutes; if this does not help, open the instruction manual and look in it for information about performing a system reset.

In some cases, erratic blinking of light bulbs may occur due to wiring problems. It burns out or the connectors become loose due to constant vibration. It is necessary to carefully inspect the wires and then test them with a multimeter. Damaged elements are replaced with new ones. Usually you can talk about a wiring fault if the machine blinks and does not turn on.

If the lights blink in a certain sequence, this means that the machine has completed a self-diagnosis program and is reporting some kind of breakdown. To decipher the code, you need to open the user manual, it contains detailed information.

Reasons for failure of the Indesit washing machine

A situation in which the washing machine does not turn on at all may be due to a number of reasons:

1. The plug or socket is damaged.
2. Lack of electricity in the house.
3. Cord damage.
4. Control module failure.
5. Noise filter malfunction.
6. Broken "On" button etc.

Breakdowns can be caused by both long service life and improper operation of the washing machine. Do not allow uncontrolled moisture to enter the body of the washing machine, power surges, or careless handling of the wiring. Any negligence when operating a washing machine can ultimately cause major problems and costly repairs.

If washing programs do not start

If the indicators and display on the Indesit washing machine are on, all modes are working, but after pressing the start button the washing program does not start, this indicates a malfunction of the hatch lock (UBL).

In the hatches of Indesit washing machines, in addition to the usual lock, an electronic lock is installed. Its operation is indicated by a click after the door is closed. If it does not fire, the system board does not receive a lockout notification and does not allow the wash to start. The “Lock” indicator indicates a malfunction; the other lights will not light up. The program selected on the washing machine will only turn on after the door is locked.

To check the UBL, you need:

• Open the hatch.
• Bend the seal and remove the hatch cuff clamp.
• Thread the cuff into the tank.
• Unscrew the retaining screws.
• Get the lock.
• Disconnect the wires.

Next, you should check the lock with a multimeter. If it is broken, you need to purchase and install a new one.

If the lock works, but the set washing mode does not turn on, this may indicate a faulty pressure switch, pump, water inlet valve, or clogged communications. It is necessary to check all the listed components, replace the faulty sensor, valve or pump, and remove blockages.

What's broken and how to fix it?

In situations where simple failures are not confirmed, it is necessary to move on to a serious analysis of the components involved in the process of turning on the washing machine.

Interference filter

An interference filter is a part that is designed to dampen electromagnetic waves coming from the device. This eliminates the possibility of interference with other equipment in the house. Another property of the FPS unit is the protection of the control unit from voltage surges.

To fix the problem, you must:

1. 
   Turn off the water supply to the washing machine.

2. Disconnect the machine from the power supply by removing the plug from the socket.
3. Remove the back wall by first unscrewing the screws holding it in place.
4. The mains capacitor is located near the side wall of the machine.
5. Disconnect the part by unfastening the supply wires.
6. If the filter is burnt out, it must be replaced.
7. If no external defects are visible, the part is checked with a multimeter. The FPS, which is in working condition, is returned to its original place.
8. Reinstall the back wall.

After replacing the damaged part, you should check the operation of the washing machine.

Power button

First, you can simply inspect the button . If it is stuck or loose, this may affect its performance.

The button is checked using a special device - a multimeter. To diagnose the node, you should make a call. The device will not respond to a non-working button.

Control module

The control module plays the role of the “brain” of the washing machine. To carry out diagnostics and inspection, the unit should be removed from the machine body by disconnecting the wires . If the tracks, varistor (semiconductor resistor) or other board elements burn out, it is necessary to carry out high-quality diagnostics.

Due to the complexity of the organization and the need for special knowledge, you should entrust the repair of the control module to a specialist.

The video will tell you about repairing the control module:

Washing mode does not start

If after pressing the power button the indicators and display light up, this does not always indicate that the washing machine is ready for operation. Failure to start the wash may indicate a malfunction of the hatch locking device. This problem is indicated by the “lock” symbol on the display .

Access to the unit that is failing is from the hatch. To do this, you must partially disassemble the washing machine to get to the lock.

Work order:

• open the door;
• the cuff must be folded inward;
• remove the clamp;
• unscrew the screws and remove the lock;
• disconnect the wires.

Electronics testing is carried out with a multimeter. If everything is in order with the lock, then the fault should be looked for in other elements - pressure switch, pump, etc.

Start button

Another reason may be that the device's start button is faulty. As a result, it does not turn on. Often such a breakdown occurs in older models of the Indesit washing machine, released about 15 years ago. Due to their features, if the button fails, everything else does not work.

The following actions are performed:

• the control module is removed according to the scheme discussed above;
• the resistance on the button is determined, and it must be on;
• If this is the case, a new one is installed.

If after all the above checks the machine still does not turn on, the reason is not common or something was done incorrectly. Then it is better to call a specialist.

What could have broken?

At any moment, a washing machine that was functioning properly just yesterday may stop working. In such a situation, when you connect the machine to the outlet and press the power button, nothing happens - the device does not emit a sound signal, the LEDs on the control panel remain extinguished. The reasons for this “behavior” of the equipment may be the following:

• malfunction of the socket where the power cord is connected;
• damage to the cord plug;
• power outage in a house or apartment;
• failure of the noise filter;
• power cord defect;

• sticking or damage to the “On” button;
• control module malfunction;
• Broken wiring inside the washing machine.

Therefore, before calling a technician, you should find out the probable cause of the problem. A burnt-out cord, its plug, or a damaged power filter can easily be replaced yourself. The start button is also easy to repair. Let's figure out where to start diagnosing.

Causes of level sensor failures

Sometimes the level sensors on washing machines break down. These elements fail due to malfunctions of the module. The breakdown may also be caused by network overload. Level sensors cannot be repaired, but they can be replaced. For this purpose, it is necessary to ensure that the elements are broken. To do this, remove the lid from the washing machine and inspect the drum. The level sensors are located under the plate and are connected to it through contacts. If the tester shows a zero value, then the device is broken. It needs to be changed.

Reasons for appearance

Reasons why error F12 may appear on an Indesit washing machine:

1. The program crashed when the device was connected to the network. Most often, such a violation occurs due to a voltage drop, a sudden change in water pressure in the water supply system, or due to an emergency shutdown.
2. There were violations during the operation of the machine. Error F12 may appear if too many items were loaded into the drum, or the user started the third wash cycle without a rest break.
3. The buttons that are responsible for a specific program are out of order.
4. The contacts leading from the control module to the indicators have burnt out or come loose.
5. The control module has failed.

Depending on the reason that caused the malfunction of the equipment, the actions to eliminate the malfunction will differ.

The lights are on

This situation is also possible. The indicator lights up or blinks, but the machine does not start in any mode. On older models with a command device, the knob turns continuously.

Are you unplugging your washing machine?

Oh yes! No

Crash

First of all, try resetting the program. The machine may have frozen or there has been a power failure. Different brands and models have different reset mechanisms. You must read the instructions. Try unplugging for a few minutes.

On older Indesit models, to reset, do the following:

• put the switch on the point;
• launch;
• wait 3-5 seconds - the lights should blink several times;
• transfer to the washing program;
• turn it on.

Expert opinion

Ask a Question

It is very difficult to reset an error in Bosch cars. Different models have their own algorithms.

Error code

On machines without a display, indicators indicate an error code that corresponds to a specific malfunction. It is deciphered using special correspondence tables. For Samsung SMA, the error values ​​can be found here.

If any difficulties arise, it is better to contact a repair specialist.

A leak

Quite often, the reason for the strange behavior of the machine is an electrical leakage to the body. First of all, it occurs on the heating element or motor, but it is necessary to check all elements of the washing machine. To do this, you need a high-quality tester with a high “resistance” limit - 40 MOhm.

Control module

Module

The lights may light or blink due to the module. If the combinations do not match your machine's fault code and there is no leak, then the control board most likely needs to be repaired or replaced.

As you can see, there are trivial reasons why the washing machine does not turn on and which you can fix yourself. But at the same time, a number of breakdowns cannot be eliminated without an experienced specialist from the service center.

No indication

The lack of indication can be caused by various reasons. Let's look at them all in more detail.

No voltage

Surprisingly, this situation is quite common and is not associated with a machine malfunction. Check the presence of voltage with a tester, or using a portable electrical device, such as a table lamp.

Why missing:

• wiring is damaged;
• the socket is faulty;

• the machine gun or RCD has been knocked out;
• there is no electricity in the apartment.

ouzo

If the wiring from the panel to the outlet is damaged, you will need to call a technician from the housing and communal services. Replacing it yourself is not recommended unless you have the necessary knowledge.

Important! Note that to connect the SMA you need a wire with a thickness of at least 2.5 mm and a 12A machine.

Sockets burn out due to poor connections, which sparks and damages the entire device. Usually this situation is visible in advance, and you can correct it yourself.

A machine gun or RCD doesn’t just knock it out. This means that there are problems inside the machine that need to be diagnosed. The machine may trip due to its insufficient power, especially if other electrical appliances are connected to it.

Expert opinion

I work in the household appliance repair industry. Extensive experience in restoring washing machines and dishwashers.

Ask a Question

We repeat - such a connection is unacceptable! And sooner or later it will lead to problems.

Socket

If the RCD knocks out, this means that there is a leak on the housing. If your washing machine is not grounded, you may get an electric shock. Continuous operation of the ACS with current leakage will lead to damage to the control module. Please note that this is a rather expensive element that cannot always be repaired.

Expert opinion

Let's summarize: the activation of the protection indicates probable malfunctions, and professional diagnostics are necessary.

We will not discuss the situation with the lack of electricity in the apartment.

Network cable and filter

If there is voltage in the outlet, first check the serviceability of the cable and then the interference filter. This cannot be done without using a multimeter.

Network filter

The wiring is damaged due to interruptions or constant kinks. The filter fails due to voltage surges inside the washing machine, or instability in the home network. Its main task is to protect other devices in your apartment from SMA.

Using the tester, we first “ring” the integrity in the “resistance” test mode, and then we diagnose the voltage at the output. If it's working properly, we'll diagnose it further.

Wires

Similarly, we examine the loop from the filter to the control module. It could be damaged due to overload. In addition, in Samsung and LG washing machines, the wires are stretched without any extra length, exactly to the required distance. That is, they are constantly under strain, and sometimes break. This, unfortunately, is their weak point.

Are you unplugging your washing machine?

Oh yes! No

Button

In some machines, the power is turned on with an additional “Start” button. In modern SMA ARDO, Zanussi, Electrolux assembled in Poland and Ukraine, it is made impractical, and quite often fails. This may be the reason for the lack of display and operation. It is checked by a tester for short circuit and open circuit.

Module

Electronic module

Due to a voltage drop inside the machine or the connected electrical network, the control module fails. If you checked all the previous elements described above and they are working, then the problem is in this board.

Expert opinion

I work in the household appliance repair industry. Extensive experience in restoring washing machines and dishwashers.

Ask a Question

Note that in the West, electronic components are simply changed. In branded services, they do the same. They are expensive, and in our country there are specialists who repair them. The probability of recovery is approximately 80%.

Interference filter and network cable

The Indesit WISLI washing machine still won't turn on? Next you should look at the power cord of the Indesit washing machine and the plug, as well as the interference filter.

You will have to remove the network connector and the filter at the same time, since they are connected.

To do this you need:

1. Disconnect everything unnecessary from communications.
2. Turn the Indesit washing machine.
3. Remove the screws and then the cover.
4. At the top left is the capacitor. It needs to be removed from the mount.
5. At the base of the case there is also a mount that secures the cable. It needs to be disconnected.
6. After the previous manipulations, the network connector with the filter can be easily pulled out.

Interference filter in a washing machine

Next, you should disconnect the filter and check the power cord. This is done by ringing with a multimeter. If a breakdown is found, the entire wire must be replaced. It is not recommended to repair the old one or replace the cores in it.

Interference filter

After this, the interference filter rings. The probes are installed on the legs of its capacitor. If everything is normal, the resistance is additionally checked. If the value is “0” or “1”, the cause is the capacitor and must be replaced.

Indesit washing machine does not turn on

Sometimes household appliances that worked normally just yesterday malfunction. This is especially unpleasant when you have planned a huge wash, and the Indesit machine simply does not start. In this case, you shouldn’t worry too much and immediately send your home “helper” to the landfill. Often, most of the malfunctions that cause it to stop responding to your commands can be quickly fixed, and on your own.

Indesit washing machine does not turn on: how to return the equipment to working order?

So, before calling a specialist, you can carry out some simple diagnostics yourself, namely:

• Check to see if the equipment is connected to power. If the plug is connected, but the machine continues to not respond to being turned on, then you need to make sure that there is current in the outlet at all. Strong surges in the electrical network often cut off power to sockets. At the same time, changes can damage not all sockets in the house, but only some of them. Therefore, to check the serviceability of the outlet to which the machine is connected, connect a hair dryer or other equipment to it.
• Make sure the plug is working properly and check that the cord is not damaged. In cases where everything is normal with the electrical network, the problem lies in the washing machine. Therefore, first inspect the plug and cord. If there are visible traces of burning on them, or you smell the smell of melted plastic, then there is no need to try to turn on the unit again. At the very least, it is dangerous.

If self-diagnosis does not reveal the reasons for the malfunction, then, most likely, some of the “internals” of the equipment are broken.

When should you contact a specialist?

Of course, an expert will immediately determine which of the breakdowns led to the Indesit washing machine not turning on. But you yourself can recognize the signs of defects that have appeared and understand what problems happened to the machine. So, the unit may not turn on if:

• The hatch does not lock normally. In this case, the washing simply will not start, and the reason for this is a broken locking device. It is necessary in order to protect equipment owners from the “flood”. If such damage occurs, the locking device must be replaced.
• When I try to turn it on, none of the indicators light up. Most likely, the power button is broken and needs to be replaced. In addition, such a symptom may indicate a malfunction of the control element or interference filter.
• If all the indicators light up or flash all at once, and the machine continues to not start, then you should look for damage in the internal wires.

Troubleshooting: where to start?

When starting to troubleshoot a failure, it is better to proceed from diagnosing the more frequent and simpler problems according to statistics, gradually moving on to more complex ones.

No electricity supply

If the Indesit washing machine does not respond to the power button, then you need to check if there is a power supply .

It may not even be in the entire house. If electricity is supplied to the washing machine via a separate line, this should be checked.

It is easy to verify the presence or absence of electricity - just turn on the light in the room or insert some electrical appliance into the socket intended for the washing machine and turn it on. Even a table lamp is suitable for the experiment .

You should also check whether the plug fits well into the socket and whether the contact necessary for operation is provided. If the plug is loose or the socket has visible scorched spots, repair is required.

If you have specialized knowledge, you can carry it out yourself ; if you don’t have it, you can resort to the help of an electrician. Work with electrical communications is carried out with no power and in compliance with safety precautions.

Power cord problem

If installed and used correctly, the power cord is rarely damaged. But it is necessary to check it for external defects.

Possible problems:

• crushing by furniture or other objects;
• bend;
• damage due to frequent bending and straightening of the wire;
• damage by pets, etc.

If the wire is defective, it must be repaired or replaced with a new one in case of irreparable damage.

Check wiring

A problem with the washing machine's power supply may be indicated by erratic blinking of the indicators. The reason for this may be bad contacts, loose connectors, etc.

Most often, the problem appears during long-term use and is caused by wear and vibration during operation. Inspecting all contacts and nodes with electrical connections will help correct the situation.

The machine does not respond at all when turned on

If you connected the washing machine to the network and pressed the power button, but the equipment did not respond in any way, there may be a loss of electricity in the outlet. Check if there is light in the house and if other electrical appliances are working. If everything is fine with electricity, you need to consider other common reasons why the machine may not turn on:

1. The circuit breaker has been knocked out. Perhaps moisture got into the outlet or a short circuit occurred for other reasons. Check whether the circuit breaker that supplies power to the washing machine is turned on. If disabled, try turning it back on. Does the machine still kick out? Then you need to identify the cause of the short circuit.
2. The residual current device (RCD) tripped and turned off the electricity. Perhaps there was a current leak on the body of the machine, the RCD failed or reacted by turning off due to poor-quality wiring.
3. The socket is broken. To avoid this breakdown, you should check the functionality of the power socket using an indicator screwdriver or a multimeter. The easiest way is to plug another electrical appliance into this outlet. If it works properly, then the cause of the breakdown lies in something else.

If the circuit breaker, RCD and socket are working properly, you need to consider other possible causes of the problem.

If the machine does not start at all and the indicators do not light up, the power cord or extension cord may be faulty. In the first case, it is worth checking the wire that directly connects the machine to the outlet for mechanical loads. Carefully inspect the outside of the wire - it may be bent or damaged. The best way to check the serviceability of the cord from the inside is to test it with a multimeter.

A multimeter is a multifunctional device for measuring resistance, voltage and current. You can purchase it at electrical stores. The machine may not turn on due to a faulty extension cord. Try connecting the washing machine directly through the outlet, thereby eliminating a possible malfunction of the element.

We invite you to familiarize yourself with the transportation bolts on the washing machine (20 photos): how to remove them? Where are they located on the washing machine? What do they look like? How to install and what to replace?

A faulty power button can also cause the washing machine to not respond to commands. In some units, the current supply through the power cord goes directly to the power button; that is why its breakdown can negatively affect the startup of the equipment.

To check the functionality of the button, it is best to use a multimeter. The device should be switched to buzzer mode and the button should be ringed first when it is turned on, then when it is turned off. The machine must be de-energized. If the multimeter makes a sound when the button is on, it means the button is properly supplying power from the network. In the off position, it should not ring through the multimeter.

Another possible cause of the malfunction is a breakdown of the network interference filter (IPF). The device is needed to protect the washing machine and nearby equipment from power outages. When it breaks, current cannot flow through the circuit, so it is impossible to turn on the washing machine.

In most washing machines, the surge filter is mounted on the body, under the top cover.

To avoid damage, you should find the location of the filter in the machine. In Samsung, LG, Indesit, Ariston, Ardo, Bosch, Zanussi, Electrolux, Beko machines it is usually attached to the body, under the top cover. To check the serviceability of the part, you can ring the filter using a multimeter. If the device detects only the incoming voltage, but no current flows at the output, then the FPS needs to be replaced.

When all of the above reasons have been excluded, the control module should be checked for damage. If you do not have sufficient knowledge in the field of electronics, it will be difficult to independently identify the malfunction of this part. In such a situation, it is necessary to entrust the diagnosis to a specialized specialist who can detect the problem and, depending on the cause, replace or repair the module.

If the machine reacts to startup with the light of one indicator, we can say that it turns on, but does not work. After turning it on, it is impossible to fill the drum with water, select and set the washing mode - the equipment does not respond to any commands. In this case, the problem may lie in a wide variety of reasons.

First, check whether the hatch door is tightly closed. It should automatically lock after starting the wash program. If the door closes with a characteristic click, but after the wash starts it does not lock, then the problem lies in the washing machine hatch door locking device.

You can check the serviceability of the hatch door locking device yourself

You can check the blocking yourself by ringing it with a multimeter. If the device detects the supply of voltage to the device after starting the program, then it is working properly. Otherwise, the hatch locking device needs to be replaced.

Other reasons that the equipment refuses to work may be hidden in a malfunction of the control module or a breakdown in communication between the control panel and the module. Such problems must be resolved by specialists.

You connected the washing machine to the network, it started, but suddenly all the lights turned on or began to blink chaotically. Signs such as these may indicate a wiring problem.

In such a case, you will have to either completely replace the wiring in the house, or repair the part that is causing the problem. The breakdown may be due to loose contacts, which can easily be repaired on your own. Also, blinking indicators sometimes indicate damage to the software module.

If, when you turn on the washing machine, all the indicators light up at the same time, this indicates problems with the contacts or wiring.

If the washing machine doesn't turn on the first time, there's no reason to panic. Perhaps the problem is not serious and you can solve it in a few minutes. If none of the proposed methods yielded results or you were unable to understand the intricacies of the repair, it is best to entrust the work to the service department.

Recommendations for proper care

Any equipment needs to be looked after and a washing machine is no exception. It must be kept clean, tidy and dry at all times. Here are some care tips:

• Periodically wipe the body and interior with a damp sponge and a special detergent. After that, go over with a dry cloth and let the machine dry completely.
• It is advisable to remove the wire and hose from under your feet, especially if there are small children in the house.
• The removable detergent trays need to be cleaned.
• Before washing, do not forget to turn the pockets inside out so that nothing remains in them. For clothes with metal inserts or other hard parts, use special bags.
• Be sure to inspect the centrifuge after washing and spinning. Small hard objects such as buttons, coins or other clothing items caught in it will cause malfunction. Immediately remove any excess from the drum.
• The composition of tap water contains many impurities, so you need to constantly monitor the condition of the drain filter and pump and clean it periodically.
• Wash the inside of the machine with special liquids and run it on a wash cycle without any items. This is what the manufacturer recommends.
• Do not allow scale to form on the heating element.

Question details

Electrical problem

If your Indesit washing machine turns off and shows no signs of life, then do not panic. The problem is not necessarily with the machine. Perhaps something happened to the power grid. If there is light in the entire apartment and other sockets are working, then you need to check the power of the socket. Just turn off the machine and plug another electrical appliance into this outlet that is in good working order. If the device does not turn on, then you need to repair the socket. Do it yourself if you have the required skills, or invite a specialist.

Important! Disconnect the power supply before carrying out any manipulations with the outlet.
