Hair straightener rant and repair! VB#11

[@ianharrison6943]

Exactly the same issue with my daughters hair straighteners. You saved me some time trying to repair a problem that was an intermittent cable break under the cable boot. Replacement cable £6.99 on Ebay.

I watched the video upto the diagnosis segment, and then stopped. Having repaired a couple of these, I'm pretty certain the fault will be in the cord, and not the rotating connector.

[@civicfire99]

same exact problem, something breaks inside that robber boot and renders the cord useless.

The swivel thing wear the lead starts will be the death of me. My last ones made a electrical clicking sound since the day I brought them and I had to twist the swivel thing to get them to come on. Never payed much attention to it and eventually the whole thing caught fire and exploded 😂

What's the pointy thing?!

[@Jasfras1]

Continuity means the fuse is GOOD not blown !!! Am I missing something ???

[@chriswouse7713]

Hasn’t blown. Unfortunately my accent abbreviated to “han’d”

@@chriswouse7713 .... Did you re listen to 2:05 ?? I'm from Yorkshire and have no trouble with your accent. Anyway, I have a pair to fix so looking for common problems. Sorry you couldn't fix your wife's pair. Strange how a cable can fail just on the reinforced pard, possibly a manufacturing issue.

I have those exact straighteners and they turn off automatically after a few minutes it’s safe but annoying when you’re trying to do your hair. I have had other straighteners and left them in for the whole day nothing much happened just two black lines in my table😂

THANK YOU for posting this! I had my boyfriend watch this and fortunately, he was able to salvage my hair straightener of 3 years. (I'm using the same model.) Yay!! 🙌🏼🥰

[@chriswouse7713]

HELENA am surprised your boyfriend managed to get anything useful from this video to be honest. Not my best work really. Thanks anyway!

[@justforthetea8067]

I have the same straightener as urs and it’s not working

[@MrzKaren2169]

[@chriswouse7713]

[@loupiz]

Tightening the pins a bit at 6:47 worked for me.
