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? I have attached two photos of the board (front & back).
Any help or tips or things to check would be greatly appreciated!
