Moulinex inicio 10

I had a non-working "Moulinex inicio 10" iron for repair.

It was tricky to take apart. First remove two security screws holding the rear cover. You will need a flat blade screwdriver with a notch in the end.

Then pull knobs and remove three screws securing the white handle section. Then using fingernails and spudgers, unclip the white handle section.

Finally, remove two screws at the rear to allow the metal base to drop free.

The element measured 30 Ohms. The thermostat contacts measured open-circuit when closed. A common fault.

I cut a 5 mm wide strip of 600 grit carborundom paper to clean the contacts.

Here's a closer look at the thermostat. The contacts are below it.

I reassembled the iron with ordinary Pozidriv screws, not security screws. It tested OK.
