ParkingLotLust Member. Hey guys. My friend who also happens to be a girl asked me to fix her straightener, which stopped working. When you turn the power switch on, the LED turns on, but very very dim, and the heating elements dont warm up. I opened it up and checked all the usual things burnt marks, components that look bad, etc but didnt see anything out of the ordinary.
Unfortunately I have no experience with the controller boards for hair straighteners, and Im sure that if I call up CHI the maker of the iron , they wont give me the schematics. Has anyone had any experience repairing these things, or could possibly offer some insight as to how the controller board works?
When that straightener stops working, you can be desperate to get it to work again. Some problems with hair straighteners may be as minor as removing and cleaning the plates.
Other problems can be much more technical that you shouldn't try to fix yourself. Trying to fix a hair straightener yourself can make the warranty invalid. Diagnose the problem. If the metal plates still get warm but not hot, it could be gunk that has built up behind them. Clean behind the plates.

My first pair lasted for over 10 years. If they have any problems, ghd have a 2 year warranty at the time of writing. How do you fix a straightener that won't turn on? Unplug the flat iron and wait for a few seconds. If the flat iron was dropped or the electrical cord was pulled out too far, it may have loosened or disconnected from the outlet. Turn the power to the outlet back on. Plug the flat iron back into the outlet.
