There is two places this problem can be. First of all, I would see if you can at the switch itself, sometimes if you of course unplug unit. See if you can get to the switch it could be just a bad contact where it triggers the Teflon coating heating strip. Now most likely it is there, but however these Teflon coating heating strips are prone to go out, they are cheap and flimsy and it does not take much to damage them like a spot or tear, or ware mark. It tends to break the circuit. However first try and make sure your switch is working and triggering the heating element, then if not, you need to order a new heating strip from manufacturer. Sometimes more hassle and expense then replacing unit itself. Thanks Mike

I think that you have the same problem that I have. The protective tape over the heating element [a strip in my case] has a hole in it and allows the element to come in direct contact with the bag. Also, the heating strip had a kink in it was was no longer flat. I carefully cleaned the heating strip and flattened it out as best I can. I have ordered some tape from : http://www.ebay.com/itm/170848027703?item=170848027703&viewitem=&sspagename=ADME:X:AAQ:MOTORS:1123&vxp=mtr to replace the defective one. A simple job.
