What Tool Do I Need To Open Russell Hobbs Glass Toaster

SOURCE: Russell Hobbs 10617 led bar

may have screws on the bottom and the loader knob usually has to be pried off. Place soft wood like a ruler against the housing and pry carefully from side to side with a large screwdriver. After working on it, plug it in outside to a ground-fault ac plug on a fireproof surface to test.

I had the same problem which I managed to solve. The electro magnet that holds the toast lever down takes its power from a poor joint.
Remove the bottom of the toaster. You will see 2 wires encased in a heat proof sleeving going from the small circuit board. One of these wires dissapears up inside the heating element board about mid way along the board. You will now have to remove the metal covering by twisting 6 tabs. This is best done by taking off the black knobs you use to push the toast down - if you can - I couldnt, so I had to use long nosed pliers to bend the tabs and then with difficulty, remove the metal cover. YOu should now see the terminal that the wire is connected to. It is this connection that fails either between the wire and coonnector or connector and heatin element on the reverse side. I put a small bolt through the hole and used a nut to tighten the pressed fitting. I didnt use solder because I thought that it would just melt!
Anyway, my toaster worked after that. Russell Hobbs failed to give me any advice at all.
I hope that has helped.

The ICU is a 16C56-02 microprocessor. However, I don't think you can just swap chips - it has to be programmed first, so unless you have an eprom and know the correct code....
If all of the lights work, and the toaster works, but the lever doesn't stay down (seems to be the common issue), I would try resoldering the transistor legs on the circuit board. The transistor is used to switch the magnetic solenoid that controls the lever. Mine had a cold solder joint, and when I resoldered, it worked fine. Wouldn't be surprised if they put out a whole bunch of boards with the same issue. Good luck.
