Do you mean a Metal Oxide Varistor? Are you sure it has been properly selected for the application, and meets the voltage and energy criteria? Are you aware that MOVs degrade over time and may need to be replaced?

It would help if you can explain the problem a little more clearly.

True, we would need to know much more details. Assume that we don't know anything about your circuit/project.
