I can not answer that question because I ordered it for a gift and didn't know that there was a problem with it.

The switch can't be fixed, as far as I can tell, and replacement looks to be nontrivial; looks like it's all custom castings. I tossed the crap grinder in the bin and got a better meat grinder.

You should contact the company; mine doesn't work well but with some tinkering it's okay. It's a pain.

I don't know, have not had to replace light yet. I would contact the manufacturer.

Read an article claiming it is not fixed.... I guess I'll wait for the reviews. Like you said, everyone came out with new models, but out of the bunch, this one caught my attention. (most bang for the buck, easily)

I think you should give the manufacturer a call with your concern. We have not heard of this problem in the past.There number is 1-800-433-0333. I hope this helps.

No they have not been redesigned. I was told, over the phone, that they had been redesigned. I bought one and found that they hadn't.

not sure, . Take note that there is an error in the last step of the electrical installation.

good question. too bad no one that has a 20070106 model answered it. Only those with homemade and you didn't ask about homemade....Why did they answer. I have one of those models and the element went out in it so I would like to see an answer.

I think you can replace the element if that's what has broken. If you go to a sight called 'How To Mend It' they seem to have an answer for you. good luck and a Happy New Year to you and your family.

I don't know because I don't have mine up yet. That is a project for next week. I will be interested to know how to fix this problem in case I have it.

Wgen we bought this element for the aame rwason u mention, we went to install the new element & found that the wiring to the connectors were broken and not making clean contact & were lucky we never had a fire. Replaced wires & old element works like new so we keep this one as a spare.

I personally do not know, my repair technician managed it, and how ? I have not seen. It is working now ok for us.

Not me, clearly a bent nail stuck in there. Im on my second one for misfire issues. I think while handy, this design is not ready for prime time !

My two are they same. Have not tried fixing them yet. If I get around to worrying about it, I will modify this post.

I received this item with a missing toggle switch on the upper left side of the receiver. I have contacted the seller for a replacement part and have heard nothing to the effect that it will be fixed.
