When did I ever say I wanted non-political topics in OT? I've NEVER said that. Just the opposite. I think we should be able to discuss ANYTHING in OT and those who have issue with it need to get over themselves.

Ok, serious answer. WWAD? I would take the outermost cover off so I can get to the element. Using a meter, check continuity from one end of the element, to the other end. If no continuity, element is trash and you need a new toaster. If there is continuity, move to the switch/lever, or whatever it is that determines if it is off or on. Most likely depress the lever that would start toasting. check continuity from the power side of the switch, to to load side of the switch. If this, and the element have continuity, check from the plug end, to the switch on both conductors. If you have continuity through all of these points, then the only thing left is the thermal or timer portion of the circuit. At this point, I'd toss it if you have continuity everywhere. |

Tell you what. Send me the $275 toaster as I know my way around electricity and have a FLUKE 87 multimeter. I also work on semiconductor furnaces so I know my way around an electrical heater.
I'll fix it for you then tell you it's "toast" (see what I did there) after I fix it and then I'LL have a $275 toaster. Deal? |

I tried several plugs, and even reversing the plug in the socket, as this is pre-two different sized prongs equipment we're dealing with. Tried pushing the bread down and holding it there.....nothing. And yes, the plugs work.

Don’t throw it away. You won’t find a better toaster. Mine is a T-20B from the 1950s. Still works great. http://www.automaticbeyondbelief.org/index.htm Look under “fixing your toaster”. |

If the above doesn't work, there's another option...

It has to lift high enough to reset the mechanism. The bail should come up enough to latch the lift mechanism. On the non-bail side, you shouldn’t be able to push the bread lift down. You may be able to turn the toaster upside down to net everything to reset. If successful, you should get once cycle out of it. Adjusting the pretension will fix that condition.
