It suddenly quits...i have to juggle the line cord to have a power.

replace cord

When cords won't retract, it's usually because they were pulled out too far, ie: past the red line on the cord.
Retractable cords have a limit to how far they can be pulled out in order for the spring to be able to "rewind" them back.
On products with retractable cords, they have a red line near the base of the cord to warn you to stop.

check your power cord if it has a break from the plug side.if not take it to a repair shop for repairs. the steamer has a element inside that gives off the heat if that goes bad then there is no where it can be replaced or repair.but if its the wires then repairs can be made.best way to know that is to take it to the repair shop.good luck.

try to open the terminal box of your flat iron use the ohmmeter test one prod on line one of service cord of plug to line one if you got a resistance or continuity it means line one of your cord is ok together with the line 2 test it possible your cord damage or try to test the heating element if has a resistance it means good or try to adjust the setting on rotate knob or fuse busted replace it.

It is probably an intermittent cord connection next to the strain relief. You can simply remove the back cover, cut the cord, pull the remaining cord (approx 6-8") and reconnect it. You can also order part # RS-DE 245954 the whole cord assembly including the circuit board for about $25.

Hello,

There is some misconduct wire, loose or disconnected. Have it serviced, if possible replace the cable :)

Hi.


Either the wiring to AC power line is broken or the heating element is broken.


The heating element is tested taking apart the iron, disconnecting element contact, and reading impedance on element contact with a multimeter set at Rx1. If the element has no continuity (circuit open), then the element must be replaced.

If the power cord is fused (like for example in UK), check also the fuse in the power cord, try replacing it.


Regards.

first of all check the male ac adaptor cord, maybe an open wire only cause by pulling and pushing it. if the ac cord is good then the filament may checked maybe it burn--out already

Most high end appliances (like Rowenta Irons) are made so repairs like that can be done. I haven't played with that model, but I did replace a cord on my Norelco. The torx screwdrivers you are looking for can be purchased, and are often found at either specialty electronic stores (not the average Radio Shack), automotive stores and quite readily online. They are also known as Torx Security bits or Torx Safety bits. Most appliances are made with those screws to prevent the average person from having a go at trying to fix it, but, if you feel comfortable enough with the electronics (even just to look for a loose connection), the bits are available and usually at a fairly decent price.

replace it with a lighter gauge wire or a coiled power type cord if you can find one....
