NI-A57SR steam Iron suddenly not functioning

I have been using NI-A57SR for couple of months but few days back it showed no sign of "turn on" its not getting heating up nor the indicator is showing any light.i guess the thermal fuse could have been burnt.
I literally have no idea how to open this press nor i know where to source the fuse or alternatively if it has some other problem.

Please advise . my cell number is 661-599-4430

I had the same problem, when I took it apart, I noticed the theromstat points needed sanding. Just a reminder, make sure to write down the order of wire leads before disconnecting. By the way to test if the heating element is working connect white lead to the second connection from the left and black lead to the far right. Place your iron flat down on a wet cloth ( so that you won't burn your surface). You can also use an electrical tester. If heating element does not work though, it is time to buy a new iron.

Black and decker all temp steam iron stopped working while ironing and now it won't turn on.

please see the cause and fix it:
a) tank or ports clogged. Dissasembly and inspect replace tank and seal if badly clogged. Emptying iron after each use allow heats to evaporate remaining water and helps prevent clooging. Inspect valve and linkage: clean or replace as necessary
GOD BLESS YOU

Panasonic iron NI-A56NR wont turn on

first test your heating element to see if it is working.
You can by pass the control module by removing it from the line. Just disconnect all wires that goes to the module and put aside, then, connect back lead to the far right connection and white wire to the third connection from the left. Be careful playing with electricity is hazardous to yout health if you don't know what you are doing.

Iron is out of order

an appliance repair center could probably fix it but you have to consider the cost against a new iron
mostly it is more costly to repair than to fix

Iron no longer has steam function

If you are using tap water then the hardness of the water could cause the problem. You can usually fix this buy running vinegar water through the iron once or twice like you would a coffee pot.
If you have been using distilled water then you probably need to replace the iron.

Euro-pro iron steam genarator model # ep8001

I have a temporary solution that is working: Use WD-40 around the switch. Spray with the straw that comes with the WD-40. Let stand for a couple days, then turn the whole unit upside down and spray again, and let it stand that way for a couple days. If we could get inside, it could be more of a sure thing, but I had given up on mine and when I accidently hit the switch after siting for the last few days, , it came on!

Now for Sears to try to locate the tool that will open the case.
