The Iron and steam tank were geting hot, but no steam getting through to the iron. Security screws make diy servicing almost imposible. I have managed to strip the unit down, and It seams the solenoid is not energizing when the switch on the iron is engaged. Anyone Know where I can get one.

I had the same problem, I found the solenoid Was NOT open circut even though it was completely silent when activated. It was the vaulve inside that wasnt moving.after stripping down & cleaning the piston in the vaulve it is working perfectly again.
