Goodnight 420G

My Goodnight 420G quit working following a power outage. With the power back on I could not get the cpap to restart?

It has a fuse that could have blown.

If you find it i would head to an electronics store of some sort like radio shack in the usa or an automotive parts place. Either one should have a wide variety of fuses.

Was this a new-ish machine? If so, call your supplier IMMEDIATELY.

My 420E died about a bit over a year ago (on Christmas Eve 2008) and my supplier told me that ALL GoodKnight 420 machines (esp. the G, but also the others) manufactured after January 2007 or so are continued to be inferior and should be replaced under warranty with the newer Sandman models. Apparently Covidien switched manufacturing plants and the new plant, basically, sucked.

If you open it up and replace the fuse and that doesn't work, then you'll have voided your warranty. And I'd have guessed you'd fried the circuits, anyway, not blown a fuse.

Good, informed advice by tilly as far as changing the equipment is concerned.

But isn't the fuse there to be blow the circuit won't get fried? What am I missing? I

By the way, the problem could be with the power brick itself.
