Hair dryer fuse
Heat element burnt out near the terminal so I rerouted and crimped it back
on and bypassed the blown thermal fuse with a 1/2" length of 18 gauge solid copper soldered to the remains of the fuse leads. There is a bimetal thermal cut-out in series with the fuse. Is this adequate protection without the fuse? |
