Replace connection/insulated wire on Sunbeam Sandwich Press GR8210?

Our sandwich press died and after fixing a few iphones and imac's i figured how hard could it be? If it works I might put together a guide for the repair :-) doesn't look to hard!

So far I have pulled it apart and found a connection which is broken preventing the circuit from being completed as shown in the photos. I cleaned off the damaged connection and put it in place and plugged it in and the light came on!

Any suggestions where I would buy the special cable and connections? Do you think I need to desolder the existing connection and put a new one on? It looks like a clamping type for securing the cable in place? Any special tools you think I might need to complete the fix?

Does anyone have any more photos of how this fits back together? I dismantled it to replace the thermal fuse but by the time I got a replacement fuse I’ve forgotten how it connected up 🤦‍♂️

Reuben Richardson, that is a simple spade connector. Remove the connector from the heating element. You may have to use some pliers to pull the old connector off. Get a new connector from any hardware or decent department store (they have the crimping tool for those as well. Place the wire end in the connector and use the tool to crimp the end of the connector. Here is a decent video

Thankyou, I'll try and fix it next weekend! Any idea on what type of cable it is? I looked online but couldn't find it.

Not quite sure what you mean by "what type of cable"

의

By cable I meant the insulated copper wire. It looks like its heat resistant and had a powder as I pulled back the braided insulation(The yellow and green, blue and orange) All similar but different colour.

I might need another length of it as the existing might not be long enough. Shall see.

I'd use some 16AWG THHN (thermoplastic high heat-resistant) nylon coated wire.

Hey Reuben - hope this can still get through - after all you query was in 2014. Hey I have a similar sandwich press that has stopped working.

Query - to get to intrrnals of bottom plate there seems to be just one screw. It seems very tight as if there is a lock but on inside and it feels like I will wreck it if forced too much. Any suggestions of how you opened the thing up before I damage it??? Will see how I can add photos to this Ifixit thing.

cheers. Rohan.

So. Screw removed. Sunbeam must have used a loctite the screw removed all the aluminium thread with it. Tried all techniques but had to resort to impact driver and using a soft touch!! Now to find why it might not be working
