Kalorik Maxx died in use and will not turn back on troubleshooting and repair Part 1

[@denisedubois4223]

Thanks to your awesome and easy to follow video, I managed to fix my Kalorik Maxx all by myself!!! Thanks again!!

[@neekolatz]

Great advice!! Replaced the fuse I simply cut the fuse out and left some of the fuse wire on each end and soldered new fuse in i looped the fuse with original metal wire and soldered so easy.

thank you so much for making this easy vid and for the link as well! ordered it for hubby to install!:)

[@mathieuasselin8431]

Thank you for this video, we fixed our problem in 10 minutes!

[@RLoose9494]

Thanks good video. Didn’t even have to watch the whole thing. The first two minutes primed the pump tore mine apart found the thermal link used the ohm meter and checked the cord and link. Yep bad link ordered a dozen good to have on hand. Just verify your amps, V and °. Thanks for sharing as well in this throw away society we live in it’s a shame many people don’t even try and fix them.

[@sayedsajadyosufi185]

Hay thanks for your video where i can find the fuse to replace it

[@jeremyzebrowski376]

The fuse I used is listed in the video description.

[@jameszanghi3564]

Awesome life saver! I just twisted the two wires together so hopefully I don't die

[@kirkffolkes-brown2432]

This video was a life saver!! Thsnk you!

[@Robert-bo1iq]

Thank you for the info 👍

[@NoneofYourbusiness-m3l]

Planned obsolescence . Mine just died...Thnx for the vid.

Hi JEremy , Thanks for the fantastic video. I have a couple of questions as this seems to be the issue with my Kalorik. I have no continuity as well. A) The link you provided to the amazon fuse seems to be a SF184E (not F). Is that still a good one to use ? B) I dont know too much about electricity, Should we not be using the lower 125V @ 16Amp fuse in Canada rather than the 250V fuse ?

[@jeremyzebrowski376]

Being unfamiliar with our friendly neighbors to the north in regards to the power used being 120v or the 240vI am not sure if different inline fuses were used to accommodate the difference in power. Generally speaking though, the higher the voltage the lower the amperage draw in normal conditions. This is usually why there will be a lower amperage rating for the higher voltage on fuses. I cannot be sure if there was a different fuse used in the 240v wired machines and to be safe I would recommend looking at the thermal fuse on your machine. I had to take mine apart before the video to find the fuse part number. I hope this helps!

My fryer went out my husband and I followed this demonstration. 😢😢we were afraid to hook it up, Harvey went in the other room , too afraid😢 to test it. WOW! It is still working. YES! It is working like. Pro

[@HAILtheGREAT1]

how has this held up 3 months later? and did you solder or crimp the fuse in? thanks in advance.

[@albertosoto8592]

You should show how to remove the fuse

[@TMac473]

If you need it shown then you should stay far far away from electrical work of any kind.

[@MrKunalsahni]

Hi I am unable to find a SF184F but do see a SF184E. Would you know the difference between the two?

[@denisedubois4223]

Same here. So that's what I used. I just got it fixed and it appears to run but I have not actually tested it out yet. I hope it will work!

[@jeremyzebrowski376]

Not sure. As long as it has the same temperature and amperage you should be fine

[@NorthernRailsTrainsInTheNorth]

This happened to ours. We ended up getting a new one via warrenty but good to know incase it happens again!

[@jeremyzebrowski376]

I didn't want to deal with the manufacturer

[@NorthernRailsTrainsInTheNorth]

@jeremyzebrowski376 believe it or not they weren't bad to deal with and the process itself was easy. Only downside was it took awhile of back and forth communication until we got the new one in the mail. Vs just going buying the part and fixing it yourself

[@anthonyg6924]

Awesome, thanks!

[@beckertina48]

Why is there ending? Did it work?

[@jeremyzebrowski376]

Second video finished it up. I messed up the recording. Everything is still working perfect

[@priMARYlove1]

Thx for making the video. Do you just cut the old fuse or is there a better way to remove it? Also what is crimping if I don't have a soldering iron? And last question, is your AF still working? Thx

[@jeremyzebrowski376]

Yep. Just cut it out. Still working great

[@anthonyg6924]

Did the new fuse continue to work or did it blow also? Thanks.

[@jeremyzebrowski376]

So far mine has continued to work great. It's been a year

[@anthonyg6924]

It's been around 8 months since I did your repair and it running without any issues. Looks to be like the manufacturer got a bad shipment of junk fuses. Thanks much for this video! Very very useful.👍🏻

[@ryanj2235]

Is there a polarity on the fuse where you can only put it in one way or can it be put in either way? Not an electrician or electronics hobbyist.

[@jeremyzebrowski376]

No polarity. Can be soldered either way. Only diodes are one way

[@MrHumanfactors]

where is part 2

[@bryanjackson9671]

Mine came with a RY 184 TF..

[@albertosoto8592]

Es más comun encontrar el de 185° igual le es compatible

[@caballero1155]

Sf184f 184 grados 16 amp a 125

[@gold8664]

That’s going to go bad especially with all the heat

[@albertosoto8592]

Why, cause the tin welding?

[@MRbigBearJR]

Soft solder melting point is 190 - 840f depending on what you’re using. If the fuse is rated for 180 degrees it will pop again before the solder is affected. But crimping would be a good idea if your prefer.

[@HAILtheGREAT1]

@@MRbigBearJR Another vicitm of this shotty device. We should get a class action against Kalorik. in the meanwhile have you replaced with another fuse that has held up better. if so can you share where to source it and did you go with the solder or crimp? I dont have much experience with appliances but grew up working on cars so I can get by with enough cummulative pointing in the right direction. thanks in advance.

[@jeremyzebrowski376]

It has been working fine for over one year now. Maybe the fuse kalorik put in was trash. I didn't want to go hotter on the fuse because I would rather the fuse pop then start a fire.
