Tutorials to fixing cord shortage from hair straightener

Small Appliance Repair shop may be able to help, but probably best and more economical to just replace. If money is a factor to replace, check local thrift stores for a used one.

Most heated hair appliances are protected by a thermistor that will fail if overheated. These are small, about 1/2" long, cylindrical in shape with a pointy end and a wire coming from each end. When they go bad, they do not conduct electricity (zero ohms on a meter). There is a three digit number on the side that is the shutoff temperature. You can get these at Radio Shack.

Don't bypass this safety device.

Most likely it is the power cord. We have the same iron and the power cord has a break in it just as it comes out of the swivel. You can turn it on and hold the power cord tight up against the swivel and it should stay on. I was able to fix it by stripping the cord down to the wire soldering and adding shrink tubing to the connection. That lasted for about 1 year and it has done it again. I may have to replace it but not sure how to take it apart.

FIRST CHECK PLUG FUSE HAS NOT BLOWN , THEN CHECK ELECTRICAL WIRE FOR ANY BURNS OR BREAKS.

that same thing is happening to me! but iv had mine for almost 2 years...exact same hair straightener, its happening to many people! i dont know if this is the problem but alot of people wrap their cords around their straighteners (i did too) and it twists the cord that conects to the hair straightener and makes it loose. i still have not found a way to solve this problem.

i would just go out and buy a new one, and if your looking for good but inexpensive i suggest vidal sassoon. they get really hot and have many settings and many different types. mine has worked greats

just remember not to wrap the cord

what I found out with my hair dryer (conair infinity model) was that there was a short at the plug and when I bent the wire a little to left or right the dryer would work. The plug is GFI protected that means there is a test and reset switch built in to the plug. There for for me to fix my hair dryer I would have to replace purchase order the whole cord. The cord assembly cost almost half the price it would cost to replace the dryer with a new dryer. I purchased a new dryer.

the differnece is that rhe wt-dry ceramic straightener is only 20% ceramic and burns your hair while the infinity nano system straightener is better but still leaves your hair with a burnt smell. If you have that burnt smell it means your hair is frying. Use a damage repair shapoo and conditioner

have you tried a different pwer plug? otherwise it sounds like a wire has come of inside i wouldnt recommend fixing as you could get another one for less then a service fee

IF you take off about a inch of wire from the plug and re-wire it [somtimes with new plug also] make sure to remember the fuse and this should do the trick.
