Iron Randomly turns off

The iron keeps turning off for no reason. It doesn't matter what heat settings. It will work for a week at a time and then for no reason shutdown and will not turn back on. Another time it will turn on and off. I think its a bad On Off switch I can hear a little buzzing sound sometime. I removed and checked all the contection and reassemabled. Problem continues.

The iron is only 18 months old and out of warrenty. I was thinking of boxing in up and returning to see waht would happen.

I know in this economy, fixing a small appliance is always something to look at before buying a new one, but in this case, that is what I am going to suggest. An iron is an appliance that has the potential to burn your house down when it is in GOOD working order. It sounds like there is either a bad component, or there is an internal short. Either way, I would be safe and get a new one.

Hope this helps,
Chad

Why my Sharks Euro Pro steam iron has water drops instead of steam when ironing?

Hi,

please lower the amount of water that you're putting into the iron by half and your problem should go away. You can also turn up the iron heat a little bit.

Thank you.

Iron leaks water while I am ironing, why?

You are probably not holding the iron the right way! Don’t hold the iron upside down, or don’t put too much water in at a time. Make sure that the heat on iron is turned up hot enough to burn the water fast enough so it doesn’t leak.

If the iron doesn't heat, make sure 1) power is on to the outlet, 2) check the electrical cord and 3) check the thermostat and replace if necessary. Use the VOM.

It leaks water when I iron sometimes staining my clothes with black streaks or water stains.

Hello :

1:Clean your steam iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Your iron is more likely to leak when it has not been cleaned properly. Plus, the water that leaks from a steam iron that hasn't been cleaned will likely be dirty and stain your fabric. Every steam iron brand is different, so be sure to check the manual that came with your iron or browse the manufacturer's website for instructions on keeping your steam iron in good working order.

2:Use your steam iron on a rigid surface like an ironing board. In a rush, you might be tempted to quickly iron a blouse or pants on the nearest available surface like a bed, carpet or even on a table with a towel draped over it. However, these surfaces may not provide the proper amount of level padding for successful steam ironing, and leaks are more likely to occur. Take the time to set up your ironing board for smooth steam ironing to reduce water leaks on a bumpy surface.

3:Allow your steam iron to heat fully in the upright position before ironing. Because your steam iron is designed to convert water into steam that will easily smooth out wrinkles on bulky fabrics, you can avoid leaks by ensuring your iron has time to get the water to the correct temperature. If you lay your steam iron in the horizontal position too quickly, water that is not hot enough to convert to steam will leak. Give the iron a chance to heat up, and then test your steam function on your ironing board cover or spare fabric swatch before tacking your favorite blouse.

4:Turn off the steam function on your iron when ironing at lower temperatures. Since your iron's steam function is designed to convert the water in your iron to steam at the right temperature, lower iron temperatures can cause water to leak if your steam setting is still activated. For ironing more delicate fabrics, turn off the steam to avoid water leaks.
