SOURCE: INSERT SIM problem

try cleaning the sim with a soft eraser first and then make sure you are putting the sim in the correct way?
the copper plate on the sim must be touching the contacts in the phone.
If this doesn't work then I'm affraid your sim reader in the phone is not working and needs repair by a technician

SOURCE: Electric Travel Cooker, Sanyo RN-AVA308,

I have the same unit and the same model number. Mine also not heat up. upon investigation I noticed the heating element has a 4 wires which I believe each pair (2 wires) meant for 100/120V and the other one is for 220/240V. I checked 2 wires (1 pair) has an open circuit while the other pair is ok. I directly connected the heating element to the power and it was heated up. I measured the resistance and it was around 78 ohm. from my lame calculation this is for 100/120V heating element. the 220/240V was busted.

Since mine on 220/240V power grid, to use the working 78 ohm heating element the estimated power would be P=VxV/R, around 738W which is way too high than the rated power (365W) for this voltage. I plan to add the dummy resistor 82 ohm + 78 ohm heating element to reduce its power around 370W. Hope it works.

I have a NATIONAL brand (Model# SR-EA10N) electronic rice-cooker/warmer that I really like. But the inner pan is worn and I don't know where to find its replacement.
