Re: My rowenta stopped heating , mid-shirt!!......now it...
The most likely cause is a broken wire in the cord. Replacement should only be done by a qualified electrical appliance repairer. Ask for a quote as it may be cheaper to buy a new iron!

We’re u able to fix this ? I am facing similar issues after my wife forgot to shut it off and the auto shut off might have triggered but now it doesn’t Heat up even though I the light comes on
If the input led is not glowing it means the connection to the mains inside your iron has got disconnected. Just open the iron. Check the input on the mains and check all the three wires are connected properly. It will heat again. You might have been changing to other type of clothes which requires more heat. Hence, you asked more voltage to the heating element and possibly due to more voltage the connection got broke and now the circuit is incomplete hence no led and no heatup.
Sounds like the Steam control valve is blocked or not opening. try cleaning the iron with a kit from wallmart or similar store. Failing that :It may be cheaper to buy a new one from wallmart or similar store.
Most irons for which you pay more than $10 (like this nice Rowenta) will have a replaceable heating element. The problem seems to be to try to find where you can get the heating element. My best bet would be for you to contact a Rowenta service center (see listing at http://tinyurl.com/danr9x). They should be able to tell you where you can get the heating element.
Before you go that route, I am assuming you already plugged the iron directly into the outlet in the wall (not in the surge strip)? Wouldn't be the first time a single outlet of a power strip goes bad.
The heating element is incorporated in the base. Rarely is the heating element bad. Its usually a connection or control problem. You cannot just replace the heating element.
This is a problem with a lot of Rowenta irons. It is the auto shut off that is not working properly and the only way to fix it is to have it disassembled and the switch hardwired to be on whenever the iron it plugged in. It is a thermal metal switch and it just stops working and then the iron will not turn on and the yellow light blinks.
Considering the iron was at a minimum two years old, I decided to purchase another Rowenta. I found the recommended solution documented on a FAQ sheet enclosed with the new iron.
I actually own another Rowenta iron (I now have three) that has the same issue. I will send one iron, the one manufactured in Germany, to a Rowenta Service Center to see if can be repaired - it was the first Rowenta iron I purchased and it provided several good years of service.
Hi,
The mostly problem in that case is the internal terminal from cord to iron is loose ,open it and fix the the terminal cord to iron,or go to the nearest shop to repair that.
