I tried to use my flatiron overseas in Hong Kong and it would never get warm. After getting back to the US it still will not heat up. Is there a way to open up the flatiron and check the fuse?

Unscrew the screws out the bottom and anywhere else you can see them should find them dipped in to the plastic frame of the iron get a thin screwdriver
i'm lookin gfor a solution too; mine was fine one day, now both plates wont heat, even though it says its gotten to the temperature i set. Someone else said the heating coils might've burned out and to get a new one?
Hi
I know its hard to say... But please get a new iron....
You me y do more harm to other electricals just trying to fix the iron....
I know this is not a great solution byt a pratical one...
most iron cases can not be seperated from the iron plate but, if you can take off the bottom plate you will see a heating element and attached to that a small cylinder it has a point on one side and a flat end on the other it is called a thermal fuse and radioshack sells them they are made in different versions so take the fuse in to get the right one clip it back in and your iron should work again
