Hello, welcome to Fixya!

Your unit is having a power fault because it is not switching on. The unit might have worked fine in the past, but that's electronics for you. Power surge, irregular power supply, excess power supply, etc can affect the unit thereby not making it to power on.

First, remove the unit's power cord from the wall, wait for about 30mins, then plug it back in. If it doesn't power on, plug it into another outlet, to make sure there electric current entering into the receiver.

If plugging into another power outlet doesn't power it on then it confirms that the unit is having a power fault.

When electric current comes from the power outlet into the unit, it goes straight into the power supply board which then circulates the current into the unit. So if the unit doesn't power on, the first thing is to make sure there is power entering into the unit.

So check the power cord, if it is a 3-pin plug, it must have a fuse in it. check the fuse if it is not blown. if fuse is intact, then power supply board should be checked.

This unit must have a power supply board in it where power enters from the mains. A capacitor, fuse, diode, etc may have been defective on the power board and maybe that's why its not making the unit turn on. There might also be some disconnection or something, inside the unit which is not making it to power on.

To actually find out what's wrong, you need to disassemble the unit with a screw driver and check what's wrong. You will be needing a meter and continuity tester in order to read the components on the power board. Once you detect any bad component, you can make necessary replacement at any electronics accessories store within your vicinity. This is the only way by which you can detect and solve the problem.

Of course, testing the power board with a meter will require someone that has the ability. So it you can't, then you might be needing the help of a repairman or you can call a friend that has the ability to help you out.

I wish you the best of luck.

Take care.

My Honeywell HZ-717 won't turn on. Suggestions?

  1. If the Socket where the heater has been plugged in is receiving power, the Fuse in the Plug may have blown. Check that.
  2. Check for loose cabling contact.
  3. Since it is new, it must be under warranty, call the Service people from Honeywell first.

HZ-725 honeywell cooltouch heater..Lights on but no heat

The screws are "Tamper-Proof Torx" head, it takes a special T15H tool bit to remove the screws. I just disassembled one of these non-working units and the problem with this unit is a open diode on the heater element board. Not sure the purpose of the diode, but no voltage is going through it. I doubt if parts are available as I see no link for parts on the www.kaz.com website. This unit has been quite hot inside as the plastic mounting peg for the heater element board is melted near the diode area.

Honeywell Ceramic Heater (HZ-370) does not swivel anymore

The instructions say this unit is not designed to be taken apart and they are right. Although i was able to unscrew the back plate and slip my hand into wipe the swivel base. It turns once again and my wife thinks I'm a genius.

Oil filled heater wont stay on

I was having the same problem and did a search to find this link. This morning when I turned it on, I backed the temperature down to 66 when it first came on (defaults to 70) and it appears to be working now (it's been on for over 10 minutes)
