Introduction
This guide will show how one can properly disassemble their Black And Decker Electric Kettle and outline the components and schematics of the appliance. This is a remarkably simple device with few parts, so it is difficult to damage and easy to repair. The most common issue with the kettle is improper heating, though the cause is not always the same as most of the kettle’s circuitry is designed to produce or manage heat. The kettle has no “on” or “off” switch and heats up immediately upon being plugged in. Since it can reach very high temperatures, make sure the device is entirely unplugged before beginning the repair.
