Questions and answers
how to get it to start, all lights glowing, water in, just humming, no action
If the True & Tidy STM-500 is humming with all lights on but not functioning, the issue could be due to one or more of the following:
1. Water Tank Not Seated Properly: The unit may not operate if the water tank is not correctly placed. Check and reseat the tank.
2. Mineral Buildup: Hard water deposits can block steam flow. Descale the steam system using a vinegar and water solution.
3. Internal Blockage: A clogged steam nozzle or hose may cause humming without steam output. Clean the nozzle and hose.
4. Pump Malfunction: The humming could indicate the pump is running but unable to draw or push water, possibly due to air lock or mechanical failure.
5. Electrical Fault: Internal electrical components may be malfunctioning despite power reaching the unit. This may require professional repair.
6. Overheating Protection: If the unit overheated previously, it might be in a protective shutdown mode. Allow it to cool and reset.
Check each of these areas to diagnose and potentially resolve the issue.
