FANUC Power Supply Alarms and Troubleshooting Guide

Introduction

A FANUC power supply alarm is one of the most common issues that can cause CNC machines to stop unexpectedly.FANUC power supply modules are the heart of the CNC system, providing stable DC power for servo and spindle amplifiers. When a fault occurs, it can cause machine downtime and system instability. Understanding the causes and repair methods of these power supply alarms can help you diagnose problems more effectively and restore production quickly.

At CNCFixtech, our technicians specialize in FANUC power supply repair, covering αi, βi various series units. In this guide, we summarize the most frequent FANUC power supply alarms, explain their causes, and share practical repair solutions.

Common FANUC Power Supply Alarm Types

Alarm CodeFault DescriptionPossible CauseRecommended Action
PIL Light OFFPower indicator not illuminated after power ON

1. No AC input power

2. Fault in power circuit

1. Check AC 200V input at CX1 (R, S terminals)
2. Inspect internal circuit and repair if necessary
MCC Not EngagedMain contactor fails to close1. Emergency stop not released
2. Terminal plug connection faulty
3. MCC contactor damaged
4. Power line broken
1. Release E-stop and test circuit
2. Check plug K9 (JX1B) connection to JXB1 on SVM/SPM
3. Replace damaged MCC contactor or wire
STATUS LED ON, Alarm DisplayedAlarm code appears on 7-segment displayInternal fault in power supply moduleCheck alarm number and LED status, analyze fault based on alarm code
Alarm Code “01”IPM (Intelligent Power Module) error in main circuit1. IGBT or IPM module failure
2. AC reactor degraded
1. Replace IGBT or IPM after verifying cause
2. Replace AC reactor
Alarm Code “02”Cooling fan not rotatingFan motor failureRepair or replace fan motor
Alarm Code “03”Heatsink temperature rise abnormal1. Cooling fan fault
2. Poor cabinet ventilation
3. Overload
1. Replace fan motor
2. Clean cooling system
3. Check for overload condition
Alarm Code “04”DC bus voltage too low1. Power interruption
2. Low input voltage
3. Incorrect shutdown operation
Check power stability and follow proper shutdown procedures
Alarm Code “05”DC charging not completed in time1. DC short circuit
2. Faulty charging resistor
1. Inspect circuit and replace damaged parts
2. Replace resistor or line board
Alarm Code “06”Abnormal input powerInput phase missingTest power input circuit, replace faulty components
Alarm Code “07”DC voltage too high1. High AC impedance
2. Regeneration circuit fault
3. IPM/IGBT failure
1. Check impedance
2. Verify IR/IS terminals for overvoltage
3. Replace IPM/IGBT after confirming cause

FANUC Repair Process

How we process your repair requirements

Step 1: Contact Us:

Get in touch with us and provide as much detail as possible about the issue you are experiencing.

Our professional repair team will help assess the severity of the problem and the possibility of repair.

  • If the fault is likely repairable, we will provide an initial quote and arrange for logistics to collect the item.
  • If the fault is difficult to repair, we will suggest replacing the parts and offer a special discount quote for your reference.

The customer sends or delivers the servo drive to our company. We register it in our system and prepare it for further inspection.

Our engineers diagnose the fault points of the servo drive and provide a detailed inspection report, including the final repair cost and estimated repair time.

We provide the repair quote to the customer and wait for their confirmation. If the customer agrees to the quote, we proceed with the repair. 

Upon customer approval, we carry out the necessary repairs. After repairs are completed, we perform tests with the motor and conduct aging tests to ensure the servo drive operates reliably under various conditions. Once the testing is successful, we register the drive for delivery.

The customer completes the payment, and we deliver the repaired servo drive to the customer.

We provide attentive follow-up service to ensure customer satisfaction and address any further needs.
