krups

hi all,
i have a krups toaster that worked perfectly until a few days ago, we had an electrician in the house adding some sockets in the front room, which was prob just a coincidence, when i put on some toast, there was a bang and spark from it, hasnt worked since..changed the fuse but no good.any ideas what could be the problem??:cool:

Element shorted probably, I doubt that you could get a spare one that's cheaper than a new toaster.

Speaking of toasters if anyone knows why on a double toaster one side works fine but the other side does not lock down. When you physically hold it down it turns on but the spring mechanism doesnt work. Is it a throw out job also?:cool:

Probably just dirt in the mechanism, taking it apart and cleaning might do the job.

thanks dolanbaker, just hate throwing it away as only a few years old, very low mileage.lol wonder if it would be worth bringing it somewhere to look at it,,..
