My iron exploded when I plugged it in. How can it be fixed?

My delonghi iron had a sort of internal explosion when i plugged it in (both the power and steam switches were already on, but it has never done this before). Now it makes a little smoke and smells of burnt. I filled it with water, but if I switch it on it still makes that sound like there is a small explosion inside. Can it be fixed? How? When I first plugged it in, the tank part kind of lighted up.

You have a short in the wiring inside of the iron. It will not work until you get the short fixed.

DeLonghi steam iron iron seems to have a loose toggle and the steam is difficult to stop. It will sometimes start steaming with just a jiggle of the iron. How do I fix this?

Question edited for correct spelling of maker name.
Question moved from Watches category.

Is it older than a year as that is the warranty on steam irons.

Have you ever descaled it? It may improve the seals on the buttons. If something has broken inside, it will be time for a new one. Getting inside them is very hard and there are no spares.

How do I fix my Rival Shot Of Steam Iron ES280 please? Indicator light does not come on and it is not heating up.

There are a few things you can try to fix your Rival Shot Of Steam Iron ES280 if the indicator light is not coming on and it is not heating up:
  1. Check the power source - Make sure the iron is properly plugged in and that the outlet is working.
  2. Check the temperature setting - Make sure the temperature setting is appropriate for the type of fabric you are ironing. If the setting is too low, the iron may not heat up.
  3. Check the cord and plug - Make sure the cord is not damaged and that the plug is properly connected to the outlet.
  4. Check the fuse or circuit breaker - If the fuse or circuit breaker has tripped, the iron may not be receiving power.
  5. Reset the iron - You can try resetting the iron by unplugging it from the wall and plug

Won't. Iron won't turn on when plugged in

Is the wall outlet breaker tripped? Try plugin a light into the outlet to make sure power is there. If outlet OK, try another known good cord going to the iron. If it still won't go one problem is with the internal parts of the iron.

Heat element light comes on (so there is power) but the iron will not hear up

The Delonghi Pro300 has two thermostats that contact the boiler. One is a low temperature thermostat that allows the boiler to heat up to 145 degrees (F). The other turns off the boiler when the temperature reaches 180 degrees. It sounds like your low temperature thermostat has failed. The part can be ordered on line. You need to have good basic mechanical skills and the proper sized star screwdriver to replace it.

Iron plug

Bit more information would be handy? whats wrong with the plug? is there just no power going to the iron? have you tried replacing the fuse? have you tried taking the wires out and making sure there is a strong connection between the wires and the screws? if your iron isnt turning on it may not even be a problem with the plug. it could be an issue with the motherboard in the iron

I GET NO HEAT IT JUST STOPPED

U got a busted thermal fuse or the thermostat switch is not functioning.

If u have a knowhow in replacing and adjusting the thermal switch, u could fix it by urself!

Better check also the power cord, mostly flat irons main prob, if there are no lights on ur iron, it means internal probs!

Better take that iron in ur friendly hungry technician to fix that!

Simac Steam Generator descaled incorrectly.

I don't think you can recover the iron. You could try to return the item !!!! but I don;t think that you will have much luck because of the incorrect descaling
