Hi,

Here is a tip that I wrote about Electric Irons and why they do not heat....

Electric Ironnot Heating Up or not Working Right heatman101

First remove screw the on the back of the iron. Next pull out on the fill tub on the front of the iron. Pliers might be needed. Another screw will seen at this time. Remove this screw and the sole plate will separate from the top portion of the DE 871.

Only if you check up with Rowenta this part will be available but if you can search around in service shops you may be able to salvage one from a coil damaged iron that was discarded.
If not fabricate the top with a fibreglass or plastic repair shop and it can be doe to suit the top after a paint job.(If broken use good glue and then paint on top)

check thermal fuse

go to the store get a 2 part epoxy glue follow the directions and mix the glue put it on both the knob and the part the knob goes on wait untill the glue gets tacky then put the knob back on wait 24 hrs. before you use the iron so that the glue can set

mY de 87.1C WAS WORKING AN ABOUT TWENTY MINUTES OF IRONING, THE CORD & PLUG IN BLEW & IT QUIT.

If you dropped it it will probably be an easy fix. Just openup the unit and look for a crack in the cicuit board. This is the case 99 percent of the time in apliance drops. If you find a crack in a board simply epoxy it and on the cicuit side of the board solder jumper wires from point a to point b when you follow the boken trace(s). If more than one trace is broken repeat the process until all the circuits can be repaired. Make sure you use wire of a high enough rating to handle the current the trace handles, and also use wire with heat resistant insulation in this application.
First things first though. Just open it up and have a look. The plug to the heating element may have just been knocked off. With a little trouble shooting skills and a good look you should be able to see your problem. If you get it open and see something I did not tell you how to fix just post any question you have and I will answer them for you.

My iron spits rust spots on my cloths and need cleaning. I lost the manual in a move. I need help.
Thanks

These are called tamper proof screws and you have to get them from the manufacturer. You have to be an authorized service center to get them. There were too many law suits aganinst the companies so they placed these special screws on the units so the do-it-yourselfers can not open them. I think they just do not want the units repaired and this is their excuse. They would rather have you toss the unit and buy another one. Sorry I can not be of more help.
