I had never opened a rice maker. This tutorial was very helpful, thank you very much.
Thank you! This video helped me figure out what I needed to do to fix my rice cooker that wasn't turning on!!!
Your title says "it's pretty easy" then say in the video that you should only do this if you're a qualified and experienced person.
Exactly lol
Watch the video. It's very clear.
@@SonjaViolette i agree with Dave. It’s only “pretty easy” if you have the kind of gear and experience that the RUclipsr. The idea of going to a tool shop and looking for fuses is much more annoying than just replacing the cooker quickly and cheaply.
Maybe he means “don’t be a fool.”
I mean what if someone electrocutes themselves and he hadn't put the warning
I just cut and bypassed the fuse. For how these things are used, unless you keep it plugged in unattended for hours like a slow cooker, there really is no need for the added safety feature. Thanks for the video!
Easy for technician, not really for ordinary people.
this is very easy, i can do this with my dick in one hand, learn to do things
You can if you presersevere I’m a 63 year old lady with arthritis in my fingers I can do this I’m only stuck because my cooker is American so I need to get some other issues sorted
But if it was an English rice cooker it would be done already
You don’t need that bit of kit he’s using it’s just nice if you have it. Be confident try because you can do it if I can
@@lindasaunders9475 you can do nearly anything with perseverance, that doesn’t make it easy.
Should try learn more about devices in your life. This, is hardly job for a technician/electrician.
@@BRBMrSoul But sometimes it is a job for only the qualified. Typically, normal people would start operating on electronics with the devices still plugged in and live whereas technicians and electricians would have had the training and common sense to unplug and completely power down the device before working on it.
Outstanding! I like your structured teaching method! Now to re-examine my rice cooker! Respectfully
My cooker died in the middle of making rice. Following your video allowed me to replace the burnt fuse and it's as good a new now. Thanks!
Our problem was indeed the thermal fuse. Thank you so much for your excellent repair guide!
the good thing with these being cheaply made, is that they are very similar in construction and have similar weak points. Danke man!
Thank you, that was exactly the problem, buying the fuse now! Its handy to have multimeter
Thank you! I used your application with my Instant Pot and now it works great again!
Appreciate your comment, glad it helped :-)
Works great if you pay attention to instructions. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxviiltW7NlHbp_VL_bLbIkbLAvILVhnia For those that complain about "mushy" or "wet" rice I suspect they are using the included cup to measure rice (which is really only 3/4 cup) and then putting in water using a separate measuring cup that is a full cup. This results in too much water and you will get mushy or wet rice and think it is not done. Just use the included cup for both rice and water, or your own measuring cup for rice and water according to your package directions. It will come out fine. I've used mine for years for brown and white rice. If your machine is bubbling white froth out of the steam vent then it means you should have rinsed your brand of rice first to remove some of the starch. Sheesh. Makes me wonder how people can cook well enough to feed themselves.
Great video. Concise and to the point. One criticism: the background music is too loud.
Very helpful tutorial. Thank you for sharing. At 2:50 you test the fuse. How is it done? setting on the meter and what the reading should be if fuse is good? Thank you again!
If the fuse is burned out, it should read like no connection (mine did). If it's working fine, it should read like almost zero resistance/just a piece of wire.
What is the name of wire connector? I don't have a solder iron
Fantastic & smart. Thank you for this video.
How about showing us how to fix a CrockPot rice cooker ppplllleeeeaaaseee!!
Is that puse always need to replace?
I have another fuse to replace; instead of 172 degrees original, the new one is 180 degrees; any problem? tks for the video
In Which store I can get this fuse in USA?
Thanks a lot for sharing this helpful video !
Is there any danger to solder the new temperature fuse, instead of using the sleeve connectors as you do ?
Can confirm this 100% works! Thank you!
I just fixed mine, thank you so much for the guide!
nice wire crimper, where did you get it?
My rice cooker turns on but it switches off too early and the rice is still soaking wet is this maybe a failing resettable fuse? or a different issue?
Where the or what we go to buy rice spare
Wow-thanks! I might try to repair my Cuisinart rice cooker that quit...
thank you so much i ordered new fuse, i think i have same problem so will update when i switch out the fuse.
Worked for me. Thank you
Thank you very much & very useful
What if I peeled the rubber gasket thing off and now I can't put it back on? Now there's no way to keep the steam in because there's nothing separating the lid from the base.
Nice video,thank you
can i shortcut the wire (using the rice cooker without fuse) for a few months until i go on ebay or amazon and buy 5 fuses for 2 €?
The machine will heat up excessively and can cause fire. steemit.com/tutorial/@thinkingmind/exploring-rice-cooker-part-2-or-how-to-replace-broken-thermal-fuse
fuses are important and necessary
You should never bypass a thermal fuse not even for a short period, it's dangerous and a fire hazard.
@@rscelectrical7091 it CAN be dangerous and CAN cause a fire hazard but thank you anyway
@@applepine1048 : No not can be, it is most definitely dangerous and a fire hazard. The thermal cutout is there specifically to cut power to the element in the event of overheating and before it can catch fire, removing that safety device is both stupid and dangerous. Believe me, I've seen the results of such bad practice on more than one appliance.
This is probably the issue mine has right now, but this repair is beyond what I can do. I tried swapping the standard fuse in the plug, in case that was the issue, but got no luck. I'll probably buy another.
Very useful, thank you.
Thank you my friend very useful Vid.
Thanks. I have use your instructions.
hi does it matter which way the fuse is connected?
Far as I know thermalfuse does not have polarity. Doesn't matter where you connect it, it works the same.
Where to buy the fuse?
I bought mine on eBay...
Few cents..
One might also just bypass the fuse if having the device work is more important than having it work safely.
does the fuse have nothing to do with the temperature regulation?
@@laurenceclack no it doesn't, its a protection safety device. if the fuse feels like the heating plate is overheating it will make a break in the line to stop the heating. but these fuses are junk and over time fail. the temp regulation is built into the unit at the factory. that would be controlled by a resistor if I'm not mistaken.
Nothing is more important than safety, my friend
I thought you gonna use solder to reconnect the wire and thermal fuse but you using something else. What is that?
you can not use solder....with soldering you overheat the thermal fuse and you blow up the fuse immediately ....
@@stevostevo5675 I see. Thank you for telling me this.
Thank you bro 🙏
Thanks for the video. QUESTION: how to change 240V rice cooker to 120V? Better yet, is there a way to change the 240v rice cooker to a car?
It doesn't have wheels so cannot change to car sorry
Thank you.
Hi my rice cooker is American can I use a uk rice cooker fuse to repair my American rice cooker . Alternatively could I convert the American rice cookers WIRING to the UK wiring system
i think these thermal fuses or en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_cutoff are globally standardized. i paid 2 € for one fuse but replacing the fuse is a higgy-piggy job.
How do get u
Me also "success" :) Thanks a lot! ( Environment thanks you too)
What if i conected direct without fuse
The next time the rice cooker would encounter the same problem, you'd set your house on fire. The fuse is there for a reason.
@@Haja024 yea, to buy more rice cookers when the fuse blows.
I wired mine direct.... no problem if you cook your rice..... and then unplug it when done...DO NOT LEAVE IT UNATTENDED I live in a foreign country....I got the thermal fuses but no information on amps etc.... and installing one not straight forward... I need insulated butt crimps too.
How is this pretty easy again?
Because all you do is desolder and solder just one component, pretty easy electronics wise
Its only easy cuz their use to it and recognize everything before they even open it. I think its easy to to compound BenzocaineLidocaineTetracain 2%2%2% cuz its all the same but in reality u dont kno what these are🤷
I wish I had saw this _beofre_ i lost my temper and smashed mine.
I feel guilty now, it was a good rice cooker for over a year, and now I'm having difficulty finding a suitable replacement.
Thank you!
I'd love to subscribe you did a great job but the subscribe button seems to have vanished so I could only give a thumbs up.
guys sometimes check main switch area to see if all the switches are ok. I thought my rice cooker was not working
where's that located?
is it better to clamp them, instead of to solder them? thanks for sharing
They originally are clamped at least on my device so I like to have my device as original as possible when it is repaired. Technically I think clamping will endure much more heat since solder will melt at some point… cheers and thanks
what happens if you just cut the fuse out?
in most cases, these are just cheap crappy fuses that just burn out for no reason other than being made like crap. so if you wanted to just run a wire from one end to the other and just bypass the fuse you could, you could leave the fuse in, all your doing is making a jumper.. but i wouldn't leave the kitchen while its operating, just in case.
Joker ah ok cool thanks, thats what ive done. Just wondered if it had something to do with the cooking timing etc
@@laurenceclack I'm not sure how the cooking time works, if i had to guess it would have something to do with that knob with the spring in the middle of the hot plate, as for temp I'm sure that's controlled by a resistor. just keep an i on it when you're using it. shit, i did even when it was new;-D i don't trust many things that use house current for only 14 bucks.
Joker haha, no worries cheers, I’ll just keep half an eye on it, sure it’ll be fine ;)
They are there for a reason. Sometimes something doesn't go right, the temperature got to hot and the fuse blow. That preventing from a further damage to the cooker like burning
At that point just buy a new one
Great Video!! Thanks for sharing!!👍👍👍
After watching this video. It should be obvious what is wrong with my cooker. The cooking switch was faulty and my mom slip some paper to hold it down. Two days later it stop working.
Dr Strangelove
I thought it was just me, but you’re right!
👍🏻
Aha !
Mine turns on but refuses to go into cooking mode.
try and put some water in the pot, then it works once there some pressure on it ☺️
Same issue
My new rice cooker won’t switch on .i,ll try more water .
It turns on it doesn't heat up.
You probably need a new heating coil. The fuse comes BEFORE the heating coil. The way that rice cookers are wired, electricity first flows in from the wall, through to your plugs, then to the fuse and then your heating coils and finally to the rest of the other components. If you get power, there is no reason for your cooker to not heat up, other than a faulty heating coil.
Whats easy about this,?????🙄
