Euro-Pro Shark GI490 Iron - Page 3 Questions & Answers
Was using my Shark x-tended
I had the same problem. The repair took less than 15 min. I opened the bottom of the iron and discovered what appears to be a design flaw on the cord holder/fastener. The holder is wedged so tight that it pinched the cord wire almost in half. I removed the cord, cut it off at the pinched spot and reinstalled. I also put a small piece of rubber onto the part of the holder that is made onto the body of the iron. In addition, I rotated the fastener cap so that the smooth side of it is against the cord.

Hope this will helpout in solving the problem....
The iron will not turn on. i tryed a different
Possible that the power cord is faulty if there is no indication at the iron. use a multimeter to check the continuity from the plug to the iron heating coil element.
it is possible that the coil has opened or the thermostat is defective.
My sharp g1435 steam iron
Hi, i think you are experiencing a faulty thermostat which is gradually failing to regulate the heat produced by the element in the iron beyond a certain level as you have said. Or it may also be as a result of the contact to the element at the base of the iron are broken which makes the high setting inaccessible...
Let an electrical technician check it out....
