Como reparar una plancha Durilium de T-fal que tira agua y calienta poco

🔧 In this video, I'll show you how to repair a Tefal iron that had two main problems: it was leaking water and not heating up properly. The owner mentioned that it made a strange noise when plugged in and that the light came on in the wrong positions. Upon inspection, it was found that the thermostat was misadjusted and the water valve wasn't closing properly. Here you'll learn step-by-step how to disassemble the iron, adjust the thermostat, and clean the valve so it works again. *Initial Problem* The iron turned on in the wrong knob positions and made noise. It also leaked water as soon as the tank was full. This indicated two problems: The thermostat was misadjusted due to an incorrectly positioned knob. The water valve was dirty and wasn't sealing properly. 🔧 *Disassembling the Iron* 1️⃣ Remove the hidden buttons and screws, including one hidden inside. 2️⃣ The tabs were carefully lifted to avoid breaking them. 3️⃣ The internal components were accessed, and the misadjusted thermostat was identified. 4️⃣ The iron was cleaned inside, removing lint and accumulated dirt. 🔧 *Thermostat Adjustment* The knob was installed backwards due to a fall, causing it to activate in incorrect positions. It was repositioned correctly, aligning the half-moon with the arrow on the iron. It was tested with a multimeter, and it was verified that the thermostat turned on and off in the correct positions (delicate, wool, cotton). 🔧 *Water Valve Inspection* The valve, which was full of lint and even hair, was cleaned. Because it wasn't properly seated, it was causing water to leak and drip. - After cleaning, the valve slid correctly again and stopped leaking water. 🔧 *Final Test* The water tank was filled and the iron no longer leaked. It was plugged in and the light came on in the correct position. The thermostat regulated the temperature, turning off the light when it reached the minimum setting. The steam was tested in both fixed and manual modes, and it worked correctly. The spray nozzle also worked well after cleaning. ⚡ *Procedure Conclusion* The main problem was that the iron had been dropped and the thermostat knob was turned upside down, misadjusting the temperature setting. Additionally, the water valve was dirty and wasn't closing properly. With cleaning and adjustment, the Tefal iron is working correctly again, regulating the temperature and generating steam without leaks. 💡 *Importance of this tutorial* You will learn how to disassemble a Tefal iron step by step.
