Does anyone near Berkeley fix small appliances like Hitachi massagers?

No, the odds of finding that part are very rare.

The drive spring gets twisted when bearing in the vibrating head seizes due to moisture. Spray WD40 on the seized bearing and reinforce the spring drive with a pickup stick or chopstick down the center.

Any rod that fits snugly inside the drive spring will do.

My wife goes through those things pretty quick, but she keeps buying new ones and saying that she got her money worth.

it's defective. return it.

rotate the head/neck part, one of the sides is not aligned with the notches in the bace of the neck. rotate it to fit right then you should be able to fit it on easily

The small sping has come out of the shaft from the motor.If you open the unit you will see that the motor has a little impeller and a shaft with a slot in it. The little spring inside of the massager head is suppose to ride inside of that motor shaft with the little tab on the spring lining up in the slot. It's really flimsy and after I fixed mine it fell out again after 5 minutes of use. It needed a stiffer spring or a different way of engaging the motor shaft. I'm still working on this...

To the manufacturer.

If your wand is N American then "don't do it" 220 through a 110/120 will fry all the magic out of it. You could get a step down transformer 220 to 110. Plug that into the 220 socket and plug your magic wand charger into that.

The cost would not be worth it though ... buy some more magic that is 220. be happy ... not sorry :-)

I had that same problem intermittently for about six months. Now I have no picture, just three small vertical lines in the center of the screen. One red, one green and one blue. Can anyone help? I know its outdated but I'd hate to throw the set in the dumpster if it just needs a little mainentance.
