Service And How to Disassemble Iron

Electric irons (non-electric irons used to be) is not too difficult to service or repair itself and its components were not expensive. 

As usual tips for service or repair an electronic device to know how the tools work. Electric irons consists of the following components. 

Heater / heater 
heat registers 
Fuse (for brand teretentu use) 
Indicator Lights 
Cable plugs into the AC power outlet 
Iron Composer Components Power: 
H, Heater or heater (commonly called iron heating element). 
R, climate control / air heat 
L, the indicator light 
A & B terminals to plug into electricity to PLN. 

Board will generate heat when an electric current flows in the heater and the heater is also good condition. To get to the heater / heater electrical current passing through the parts: cable, fuse (some use and not) and heat registers. If any part or component is damaged or problematic before the board will not heat cold alias. By understanding how the board will be easier to dismantle the damaged board. 

The things that cause air to cool: 

1 cable plugs into the power outlet, 
Iron is most often damaged in this section. Cable board often broken inside. Usually physically looks still good but if ditester cable broke. Board cable is often broken because often attracted, often in rolls, ironed etc. To determine whether or not the cable breaking can be checked with a tester or if you do not have a tester gunakana own way which is important to know the cable broke or not. Disconnect the cable plugs automatic electric current does not flow, air was cold. The first step is to overcome damage to the board check plugs wires.

broken wires

Check the thermostat

heater board

To determine the condition of the heater is still good or do not have to use a tester or tested directly by giving him electric current. If a few seconds electricity flowed hot means still in good condition.

Check condition of heater

Open the back cover, usually just one screw

Open the thermostat, open the screw casing

Once the repair is completed and closed electric iron, do check whether or not there is a connection between the body cord plugs. In order to keep the leakage current to avoid electric shock when touching the iron body when used.

The needle does not move then yes

2 Fuse 
Fuse or fuse usually located at one foot terminal A or B (see scheme). Only certain brands are using the fuse on the power board. Usually iron that uses the Philips brand fuse. Drop out fuse causes current and incoming board lsitrik not died. The second step is to overcome damage to the board check the fuse or fuse. Ways check the fuse or the fuse broke or how easy it is to use tester try dijumper or operate without using fuse. 

3 The temperature or heat 
To adjust the temperature or heat on board is done by turning the "key regulator" to the left or to the right. Climate control on board the principle works like a switch (contactor) on / off is controlled by the temperature and control buttons. When it reaches a certain temperature "thermostat" will work be off or on (can be seen on the indicator light). Because often on or off when the board is used "spy" switch on the thermostat is often dirty. This debris can inhibit or make temperature control does not work. The third step is to overcome damage to the board checks the temperature control. If this part is not working electric current does not flow to the heater. The indicator light is lit. Damage to the temperature control resulted in cold irons, cleans "spy" of charcoal or dirt on one solution. This section is relatively rarely broken.
4 Part heater or heater. 
Heater is a major component of a board. Heater change electrical energy into heat energy.


If the heat does not mean broken. To replace them stay a little poke. Replace with the same indentation models to fit didudukannya. Part relatively rarely broken heater. The final step is to overcome damage to the board check the heater. 

Ways unloading electric irons:


Can also use testpen, if testpen taped to the body does not turn on when plugged means no air leakage. Leakage current occurs on the board since the legs touch the terminal on the body or the fibers of the cable attached to the body.
