  If, after installation, the motors and lights on your KOBE Ventilation Hood aren't working, there are several potential causes: * **Power Supply:** Ensure that the circuit breaker and the unit's power switch are turned ON. Use a voltage meter to verify the power supply. * **Wiring:** Check and tighten all wire connections to ensure they are secure. * **Control Unit/Processor Board:** Verify the wire continuity from the control unit to the processor board. A disconnection here could be the issue.
