• טשעק מאַכט: Ensure power is supplied to the control panel and the timer mechanism.
• Verify Tripper Placement: Confirm that the ON and OFF trippers are correctly positioned on the dial for the desired schedule.
• דורכקוקן די גירז: If the timer dial is not rotating or the manual lever does not engage the switch, the internal gears may be damaged or stripped. This often requires replacement of the timer mechanism. You can often feel the smaller gears turning by gently touching them through openings in the back of the mechanism, even if the main dial is not moving.
• וויירינג קאַנעקשאַנז: Recheck all wiring connections for tightness and proper placement according to the wiring diagram.

6.2. Timer Dial Not Moving

• This indicates a motor or gear train failure within the mechanism. The mechanism will need to be replaced.
