    What to do if no LEDs are lit on my Nortek IEI 232e Standalone?
    • M
      Michael CunninghamAug 1, 2025
      If no LEDs are lit on your Nortek Keypad, it indicates that power is not reaching the keypad. Here's what you can do: 1. Use a voltmeter to check the voltage at the keypad on the red and black wires. 2. If there's no voltage, check the power supply. 3. If the power supply has no voltage, contact the power supply manufacturer. 4. If the power supply has voltage, but the keypad doesn't, check for breaks in the wires and test the wire run for continuity. 5. To confirm the keypad's functionality, power it with a 12-Volt Battery.
