THE PLUGONMY CHI IRON GOT BROKE NEED A NEW ONE

Took my chi to Europe and despite having a converter that was supposed to step down the power from 220 to 110, my straightener fried. Doesn't turn on at all despite resetting the GFCI in the plug. Not sure if the issue is in the plug part or the thermal fuse in the body of the straightener. Though

When the flat iron does not heat up, it is usually the ceramic fuse that is located under one of the heating elements. I fixed my daughter;s CHI flat iron for $1.97 with a ceramic fuse I bought at Radio Shack.

If that is all that happened and you still have the flat iron you can probably get it repaired. Just go to www.flatironrepairs.com and send an email inquiry.

Chi Flatiron Repair Fix it Yourself User Photos

Most appliances come with manuals that give you company contact information. My guess is the iron is out of warranty. As irons have high voltage components, do it yourself is not advised. Staying alive is better than fixing an iron. That said, the above link even tells you how to take it apart. I have a hunch that good parts would have to come from another broken Chi iron. And where would you get that! Maybe someone on the above link can be contacted. Alas, you simply wanted a reliable business that might check this out. I doubt you want to pay a technician for his time in taking this apart. I wish you well.

Have you checked it on different plug ins? I realize this sounds silly, but I had the same problem once and had a fit...all to find out my plug in had tripped. Bathrooms usually have those plugs that have the little button to reset the current. Maybe if you try that and different plugs.... If not, I would take it back as it is obviously defective. May have a bad connection, short, bad fuse, etc, and you would not want it anyway because it would not be safe.
