How to troubleshoot a Tuttnauer 2340 MK when the POWER indicator light doesn't turn on?
- B
  Brendan SandersAug 14, 2025
  If the POWER indicator light on your Tuttnauer Laboratory Equipment does not light up, several issues could be the cause. First, the main switch might be defective, in which case you should check and replace it if necessary. It could also be a problem with the "POWER" bulb itself, so try replacing it. Inspect the line from the entry point to the main switch for any damage and repair it. Another potential issue is an internal electrical problem within the unit, which requires further investigation. Additionally, the “Power” light may need to be replaced.

What to do if the door handle of my Tuttnauer 2340 MK won't turn to open?
- K
  Karen EdwardsAug 25, 2025
  If the door handle of your Tuttnauer Laboratory Equipment cannot be turned counter-clockwise to open, it may be because the door pin is set in a groove. Try turning the handle slightly in the closing direction (clockwise) and then attempt to open it again. If the problem persists, the door locking system may be stuck or the bellows damaged. Refer to “Pressure Door Lock System”. After opening the door, replace the bellows.
