Hey all,
I have a small problem wherein the relay which closes the heating element circuit in my Weller 201t iron is no longer closing. I'm unsure if it's a fault with the relay itself or with the thermostat responsible for tripping the relay, but given that they are effectively one unit I assume it is possible to replace them as such.
My question is, I cannot find a replacement thermostat/relay anywhere. I can easily find replacement tips, heating elements, and entire needles, but no relay/thermostat.
Has anybody else here been able to find one or will I be force to spend $100 on a new needle? Any guidance is welcome.
