Kyros Deep Blue Chiller not powering on

[christianleo]

Does anyone have any knowledge or experience with the Kyros Deep Blue Aquarium Chiller. Mine suddenly will not power on and was wondering does anyone have any advice of how to repair it or what I could look into as to why it won't power on. Anything will help. Thank you

most commonly either a fuse but my guess would be capacitor, they swell up with heat and go bad.

Look for something that looks like this.

Thank you so much for replying. I most certainly will tomorrow. I really appreciate you informing me about this. If the problem is the capacitor where you suggest I could find replacement part?

on the capacitor there will be information about how many ferrets etc, if you can find any capacitor with that number it will work, its just a storage bank when system kicks on it needs a lot of juice and capacitor provides that. (in simple words)

Very commonly found online, just a simple google with the correct ferret info will bring tons of pages, and prices are cheap.

make sure to take a pic or 2 of the setup before you unplug any wires from it. this way you know what goes where, and take pics of the sticker with specs so we can also guide you for what to look for.

Gotcha. This is perfect help. Pics will be taken and I’ll post them when I get off work later today
