Have just replaced the middle element. Toaster worked fine for a couple of minutes but now there is an open circuit somewhere (it trips the fusebox). Ideas?
Is not an open curcuit but a short curcuit. Means that one of the wire conections you have made is either contact with toasters body or one contact is touching with other contact. So you need to have all contacts of the toaster from the bottom side to see if their are clear to each other or from the toasters body

All the element's are available on e-bay u.k. for about 6.00 gbp. Alternativley you may be able to repair it. Put the toaster on it's side with the bottom facing towards you and the knobs on the top. Remove the crumb tray and then remove the bottom (usually the screws are located in the feet). There may be one more visible screw remove that too, then you will see a rail at the bottom that secures the element's in place. Loosen off the nuts at each end and slide the rail down, undo the two bolt's feeding the power to the element's and slide the element out.Go over it with a continuity meter and see where it's broken then move the element wire about to bridge the circuit.Test it again and reassemble. I repaired mine this way.Or, simply replace the element using the instructions above.Easy!

your toaster is working correctly if both are off you are in BAGEL/BUN mode ( did i spell that wrong ? ) in that mode it will only toast the cut side .... Please if this answer helped , please rate this 3 or 4 stars . and keep me in the paid answer department . A 1 or 2 may knock me down into the unpaid ranks. Thanks Cactus Bob

Try ebay, their good price and they will come to you fast and on low cost. The midle one is called "CENTER" and the one at the two ends called "END"
