SOURCE: Toaster Side wont 'start'

I would say the door interlock switch (or its mount or wiring) has failed.

This is to prevent it from running when the door is open.

It may be shut, but if the signal from the switch is not present, it will not run.

SOURCE: I have a 4 slice

The toast carriage is held down by an electro-magnet, not by any type of physical clasp or hook.

So the most frequent problem with elector-magnet is due to the heat some wire or springs become loose so the electro-magnet is not working properly so it does not stay down.

Another reason that electro-magnet not work properly is due to bread remaining does not leave the lector-magnet contacts to contact. You should clean between where the metal of the Electrical contact meet each other.

I bought one of your toasters and it only heats on one side

Hello, Laura -

Fixya.com does not sell toasters or anything else.

You will need to contact the manufacturer of your toaster. If you choose to add the manufacturer's name to your question, you can do so through the Edit feature. Then, I or someone else can find the link for you to contact the manufacturer.

All works except toaster elements do not heat up. is there a quick fix?

unplug it and let it sit for a minute. then plug it back in. If that does not work, then its not going to be a quickfix. Rather it will be an internal issue with lots of screws and testing with meters.

My black & decker tro964 is not heating

That may sound like a stupid question, but is it plugged in?
Have you tried to plug in the toaster on a different power outlet?
If there is a ground fault switch where the toaster is plugged in (that's those outlets which have 2 buttons on the front, one labeld "Test" the other usually labeled "Reset") unplug the toaster and push the "Reset" button and try the toaster again. To test, if the power outlet, were the toaster is usually plugged in, is working, try a hair dryer or any other device on that outlet.
Its most likely cheaper to replace the whole toaster than to replace the heating elements, for about 40 $ since that's the price of your toaster on some websites.

Toaster does not work!!!

I investigated further (took it apart again to satisfy my curiosity) and it appears that one of the top heating elements (the front one) is open (burnt out). I cannot see an easy way to replace it (contacts are spot welded) and I can't find a place to buy the element. If I could it probably won't be worth it since a new oven costs $25 at Target (B&D TR0490W). Too bad since the oven looks like new. I assume the upper elements burn out more frequently because heat rises from the lower elements and adds extra heat at the top.
