Dg920 pressure relief valve - Irons

I think you have a tank that is calcified and is not getting enough heat to the water assuming there is enough water in it. If it was blocked it would either cause the relief valve to vent or explode.

I would start by cleaning it, my best guess would be to run a few cycles with vinegar in it. This is a mild acid that will dissolve the calcium deposits. Try maybe a 50%-50% with vinegar and water.

Be sure the vinegar will not damage the unit, I do not know.

Hope these links help.

Questions Answers for euro pro steam cleaner iron

So many people make a copy of that iron maybe a local repair shop for tefal, black n decker, or another can do it. Taking things apart sometimes is not worth the trouble of putting back together. sometimes it requires special tools. call around first before you try it yourself

see this causes and fix it. God bless you
Clean an iron:

1. Unplug the iron and make sure it is cool before cleaning.
2. Use a toothpick or pipe cleaner to remove buildup in the steam vents, making sure the debris doesn't fall into the vents.
3. Use a fine sewing needle to carefully clean the spray nozzle of mineral deposits.
4. To flush sediment from a steam iron, pour 1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup vinegar into the water tank. Place the iron on a rack over a broiling pan and set the iron to steam until the tank runs dry. Repeat if necessary. Or follow the instructions for using a commercial iron cleaner.

Service the steam and spray mechanism:

1. Unplug the iron.
2. Use a fine sewing needle to unclog the steam valve assembly. Also, check the valve spring and replace it if it is broken or has lost tension.
3. If the spray pump is accessible, remove it and check for leaks by placing the spray tube in water and squirting the pump. Clean or replace as needed.

Clean a metal soleplate:

1. Unplug the iron.
2. Use a sponge and commercial soleplate cleaner or baking soda and water to remove dirt buildup on the soleplate. Rinse well with water and dry. Don't use harsh abrasives or immerse an electric iron in water.
3. Use very fine steel wool (0000) or an emery cloth to remove scratches and burns on the soleplate, then clean the soleplate.

It sounds like the problem is related to the impeller. Vaporizing water, even if it has been distilled, will eventually leave behind it's minerals and deposit it where ever the vapor is allowed to dry. I think if you disassemble the unit and clean it, then lubricate the rotating parts with a silicone based gel then it should likely operate.

Yes, you got the right point, pls. chk that.

Could be a possible block of the water jackets to the steamer,ajammed valve .press down the water release nob several times to see if the block clears.Have an air pressure hose connected to the inlet while the nob is pressed.

When you say short, it means to most people that you have intermittant connection in the cord, and one would say, replace it with the same or better type cord. If you are good at soldering, wire splicing and crimping, it should be fairly easy to separate the base using Security Torx Bits (i.e. tamper resistant screws are used), and a bit of judicious patience. Once appart, if they use crimped or solder connections you can cut, splice and crimp as needed. Your cord will be a bit shorter and you will have to reindex the strain relief service loop, but it should be painless. If you are not confident working with UL listed safe equipment (your loved ones will be using this appliance) you can get it serviced here:

It is probably an intermittent cord connection next to the strain relief. You can simply remove the back cover, cut the cord, pull the remaining cord (approx 6-8") and reconnect it. You can also order part # RS-DE 245954 the whole cord assembly including the circuit board for about $25.

The best way to deal with it is to open the base of the cold iron which uses Security Torx fasteners (you can get bits at Harbor Freight). Be gentle, there are some hidden fasteners that are blocked by the power cord and such. Take careful drawings or better yet take a few digital pix so you can reassemble without any trouble, use masking tape and sharpie to label hoses. Use needle nose pliers to back off wire hose clamps, push the cloth braid back towards the tank end, and cut off 1" or so the hoses dressing them down evenly but still will reach the desired locations, put the strain relief holders and reassemble and your done.

Fuse gone, Break in the supply cable or both

If there are no indicator lights on the iron I would check out the fuse first if that is ok then I would waggle the power cord where it goes into the strain relief grommet just before it goes into the iron body.

If you get a connection then it is a case of stripping down the iron and re-wiring the cable
