      Vickie ColeAug 18, 2025
      If the CPAP control panel LEDs don’t flash or illuminate when the power supply is connected, check all power connections. If that doesn't work, try another power outlet, ensuring it's not controlled by a wall switch. You can also test the outlet with another device. If the power source LED is not lit, it might indicate a faulty power source.
