Well, as I can’t be bothered to join a different forum thought I would ask here as there’s quite a few people here with knowledge of such thing.
The exciting world of panini makers appears to have lost another stalwart. After 15 years of service, my appliance is doing something funny. When I plug it in (there’s no ON button) it immediately trips the main fuse of the house which controls the plugs. Changed the fuse in the plug of the appliance, tried different sockets to conclude that the issue is with the appliance itself.
Anyone offer anything else I can try before I take it down to the skip to be recycled? I don’t like just throwing stuff away if it can be fixed but not sure I know how to fix this one
(ps, this is what happens when you get married, you go from talking about biking adventures to fucking panini makers!)
Sounds like there’s an internal short - so something has failed - given it sounds like its mostly just a heating element and thermostat… its probably in silicone heaven now.
This is the one we’ve bought just recently - well pleased. Plenty of space, heats up the food evenly, collection tray for oil, and the plates themselves are removable and dishwasher safe.
