Introduction

While many repairs can be accomplished without soldering, there are times when it's necessary to replace certain components, e.g., on switches and heater coils. An On Switch may need to be replaced if when flipping the switch back and forth, it does not turn the curler on. It may seem very technical and complicated, however, it is simpler than it seems.
