Heat press problem.. :(

[Dezignwar]

Hi,

My heat press has stopped working yesterday, it was working fine and then the temperature controller display went out and stopping clicking in and out when at set temperature.

The timer still works when you lower the plate but it no longer heats up.

Unfortuantlly i brough this second hand to get me started, it is a clam type press and from china.

The temperature control unit has XMTE temperature controller on it MC 02810232


Hopefully i have just attached a couple of picture.

If anybody has any ideas or where i can get a replacement part or equiverlant would be most greatfull.

Many thanks
Happy eatser.

Have you tried pushing the reset?

If it does need repair you could try Pressmech in Leicestershire, they fix all types of press

Thats not a reset button.. its a little dial im guessing to tweek the temp..

Thanks may have to give them a try.. tried everything i can.. took back off checked connections etc.. gutted didnt really want to have to fork out on a new press unless i have to..

Would be useful to take a photo of the back of this unit. Does it have a series of round pins in a circular format?

Think we have a spare controller of this type knocking about - someone was selling some of them in Ebay, and we decided to buy a couple - one to use in a broken press, and the other to keep as a spare.

Need to check with the wife, but I don't think we need it, as I don't think any of our presses use those controllers anymore - need to find where we've stored it!
