    UTH not working?
    I'm stumped! I had to unplug my ranco, flexwatt UTH to vaccum a few mintues ago. I just plugged it back in, and nothing. No light, nothing on the little lcd window... nothing. Left it plugged in for a few minutes to see if it would come on, nope. What in the world!? Help?

    maybe ya "blew" the UTH. like somehow sent a charge through it and fried it.

    try another outlet.

    Did you check your breakers and fuses to make sure nothing popped or blew? Or maybe the outlet it is in is a GFI outlet and it tripped, That's all I can think of.

    I have a UVB/heat lamp for my beardie, and if that gets unplugged or turned off for any reason, it won't come on again until it completely cools down. Maybe the UTH has a similar safety mechanism? :confuzd:

    I sure hope not!
    I've tried a few outlets, and checked all the breakers.

    I don't know what I did, but it is now working again!!!!!!
    Lesson learned: Don't unplug UTH!
