Multi-cooker Philips HD3039/40 does not turn on – repair chronicles

If the multi-cooker does not turn on and the display does not lighted up, then either this breakdown is most likely related to the power supply or a problem is in the control panel of the multi-cooker.

The clock on the display can show the time, as they are powered by the built-in battery on the control board.

Open the case of the multi-cooker, its bottom is fixed with only four screws.

At a minor inspection of the power wires, a thermal fuse, which clips to the metal casing, can be identified in a heat-resistant tube.

Release the clip and move the tube from the thermal fuse.

Check the thermal fuse. If there is a breakage, that means it has succession of action and is subject to replacement, and multi-cooker does not turn on because of it.

Replace it with a new one, important to take into account the operation temperature of the new thermal fuse, it must exactly coincide with the old one (it is 152°C in this multi-cooker).

The thermal fuse should not be soldered, it is necessary to use crimp terminals for connection.

Collect and check the multi-cooker.

As you can see, the multi-cooker works. And thermal fuses most often burn out because of non-compliance with the rules for loading products. If the multi-cooker thermo fuse burn out after replacement over again, it is necessary to check the temperature sensors, etc.

You mustn’t remove the thermal fuse from the power circuit at all, as this is very dangerous. In case of an emergency situation this is the last line of protection!
