Thanks for the video, especially the part about heat sinking the thermal fuse before soldering. I blew my first thermal fuse trying to solder it. Then used an alligator clip to heat sink on the second fuse and that worked. Although unfortunately my controller has other issues because it only worked for a few seconds before going TU again.
Had a throw size given to me, but it quit after 2-3 uses. Found a small burn hole, hot ash, cigarette maybe, that had melted one side of inside wire. Not sure if bad spot can be cut off & reattached, then covered w/electric tape or a wire cap? Not much knowledge of fixing electric items. Have fixed a few electric wiring, such as speakers, cords, etc. Not sure if this would be worth the effort/trouble &/or if safety issues? Only used it outside, while burning items in burn barrel. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for vid.
The camera did now show... what was the resistance of the blanket you got? I think mine was 7 ohms if I recall... I can't believe anyone would post complaining or pointing out that this is a video for the control vs blanket. Like they never fixed their ____________ (fill in that blank, tire,battery,alternator, for example) and said "I fixed my car". It is commonly understood you fixed the blanket. The details reveal what part of the blanket, just like the example of the car.
Should tell us the setting to put multimeter on to test for bad fuse, or to then check the good replacement (which is the ->+ sign, ...I think ?). Learned a few good things from this. The guy knows what he's doing, but the step by step descriptions and visuals are a bit vague. How to test the actual blanket for a short is not included in this.
I guess if the damage is in the heating element, it can't be fixed, right? I'm saying this cause all the videos I've seen they all fix the switch/power supply circuit, but no one checks the elements. And mine was broken when I moved it from one place, to another, so it's most probably the elements.
You initially called it a "thermal fuse" / "thermal cutoff" which is likely correct. Then you repeatedly called it a "thermistor" which is a totally different type of component and likely incorrect.
@@coyotekey192 hi, I just saw this now. I have to check it later on, I'm not at home now. I'd they'd any other way that I can communicate with you please?
This is dangerous the thermal cut out fuse must be exactly the same as the original and match the temperature and amp rating of the original part or the blanket could catch fire. Its very important that the same rated temperature is the same or the blanket will over heat and catch fire and there is no mention of that which i think is extremely dangerous, people sleep on these blankets just somthing to think about before anyone attempts this you dont wanna burn in your sleep this guy didnt leave the blanket on long enough or do a temperature check so theres no proof this blanket actually works properly.

Where on the cable is it burn? Next to the plug or the blanket itself?

Thank you for the commit.
I don't think the thermal cut-off would have blown, it would most likely would be a fuse.
Is there a place to buy the board? This board looks to have burnt in the middle.
Off hand I don't know of any.

You shouldn't be opening a mains operated unit if you don't know how to check a fuse with a multimeter.
would be a really interesting topic but sorry! Unfortunately you can hardly see anything!!!
Sir what is exactly voltage output going pass to the blanket it's not getting heat.what is the problem?
I guess if the damage is in the heating element, it can't be fixed, right?

yes, it not worth fixing even if you could fix it. This will make it unsafe to use.
You initially called it a "thermal fuse" / "thermal cutoff" which is likely correct. Then you repeatedly called it a "thermistor" which is a totally different type of component and likely incorrect.
Would either one of those fuses blow as a result of the cord being cut?
If it was plugged in then yes for the fuse not the thermal most likely . If not plugged in then no.
electric blanket controller resistors keep blowing up even after replacing the cut off fuse. What's the problem?
Sounds like you have a short on the board.
What do I do if my pad doesn't have any screwdriver hole things
It should have screws. They are usually hidden under rubber pegs Or it could be a snap on case. I would need more info on your case.
Mine as well.
@@lesleypetersen805 Who is the manufacturer and model of the unit? so I can see if I can help you out.
@@coyotekey192 hi, I just saw this now. I have to check it later on, I'm not at home now. I'd they'd any other way that I can communicate with you please?
Found mine under a sticker. Depending on multiple factors (such as age, manufacturer etc.), removing the sticker might void warranty.
This video realy wasn't a lot of use. There was nothing to see of the board from 3 feet away.
Thank you for the info. I'll make sure I set my camera closer next time I do something like that again.
You can actually expand video on TH-cam maybe something new since you wrote this
Can i get the only controller in India?plzz help
I check the voltage output it's has 34v dc
What's the part number
It's been a long time, I don't remember sorry.
"Allright"
This is not a fix for the blanket its a fix for the controller! But I give you marks for checking the continuity first. Thx
Thank you for the input...
How dies one test the blanket please
I took it that it was the controller, rather than the material blanket.
Tried everything keeps blinking
try to bring it back to the store or get ahold of the company, customer service, wish ya luck sis !!
We need a closer view of what you are doing. This does not help.
That blanket must be soft the way he touching it
YA CAN,T BLAMR HIM SIS , WE GUYS LIKE SOFT THINGS, AND BABIES TOO , EVEN BUNNIES , BLESSINGS TO YOU AS WELL !!...PS: I ALSO LIKE CHOCOLATE BUNNIES !!!

This isn't for the blanket it's for the controller but thanks tho
Thanks for the reply, I added controller to the title.
