Usually when hairdryers exceeded their temperature settings the thermostat shuts off and the reset button is pressed and the unit turns on.But if it doesn't it means that a fusible breaker is open(meaning that the line is cut-off).You want to repair it your self?Get a philips screw driver(one with a + tip on the end)unscrew the dryer opening it in half.There you would notice wounded wire(called nicrome wire-your heater) and there is this little silvery capsule like object with two wires on each end.Take note of the orientation of the part(the end is flat and the other end is conical) get a similar type on your local hardware store.And replace the bad one with the same position of the original.Screw the cover back take note of the parts where they are originally where and check if you have connected everything right(twice or thrice to make sure and be safe)before plugging it to the outlet.

Conair hair dryer 1002axa stopped working

The thermal cut-out on hair dryers is usually self-resetting, the device will restore power once the unit cools down... Most of these types of problems are due to lint clogging the air intake and causing overheating, be sure to clean the intake before attempting a repair.

Conair waterfall footbath

You might try disassembling it and checking for a blown fuse. Does it have a on cord reset like most hair dryers? Try resetting that if it does.

I found a list of all their instruction booklets for hair dryers (some are 1875 watts) but they don't have the Yellow Bird:

Power chord frayed and I need a new one for a conair hair iron CS36. The chord pivots in the handle 360 degrees.

go to (www.fixit.com/small apliance)
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.
