Why Is My Zen Aromatherapy Diffuser Blinking?

If you’ve ever noticed that your zen aromatherapy diffuser is blinking, it may be time to take a closer look at the issue. There are a few things that can go wrong with your oil diffuser, and it’s important to fix them before they stop working altogether.

A broken fan

If your diffuser isn’t blowing out vapours anymore, you likely have a problem with the diffuser’s little fan. These little motors are crucial for pushing the vapors up into the air and out of the pad. Without them, the vapors would just sit inside the diffuser and never blow out of the pad.

The other issue with these little fans is that they can get blocked up or clogged up with mineral deposits, which will cause them to stop working as effectively. This is why it’s so important to keep your oil diffuser on a flat surface so that the fan doesn’t get blocked or obstructed.

It’s also important to check that the diffuser is plugged in correctly. Most essential oil diffusers have two plugs: one that connects to a power source, such as a wall outlet, and another that connects to the actual diffuser itself. If you’ve ever accidentally plugged your diffuser in the wrong way, it can cause it to stop working.

A bad plug

Sometimes the power cord of an oil diffuser will become damaged or loose, which can prevent it from functioning properly. To check whether this is the case, remove the power cord from the diffuser and try plugging it in again. You should also check the diffuser’s manual to see if there is any specific instructions you need to follow.

A cracked ceramic disc

If your diffuser isn’t producing any vapor, it could be that the diffuser has a crack in its ceramic disc. This can prevent the mist from dispersing evenly and can also reduce the effectiveness of the oils that are being diffused.

This is often caused by overfilling the diffuser. It can also happen if the diffuser is bumped or moved around while it’s still filled with water and essential oils. If you notice that your diffuser isn’t producing any mist, unplug it and clean the interior of the unit, then try re-filling with water.

A cracked ceramic disc can be fixed by replacing the diffuser’s ceramic disc with a new one. It’s a relatively simple process that will help restore your diffuser to optimal performance.

It’s also worth noting that a crack in the ceramic disc can affect the quality of the oil that is being diffused, so it’s important to make sure you’re using high-quality oils that have been tested and certified for safety.

Your essential oil diffuser should last a long time if you care for it. To help extend its life, empty it out regularly and wipe it down with a paper towel dampened with vinegar after each use. Doing this will not only keep the diffuser looking and feeling new, but will also help to prevent corrosion on the components.
