It's a vacation day fro you and you all preparing
some foods to enjoy. Food means like heaven when it's delicious. You need to
cook that food to make it like heaven,but unfortunately you rice cooker isn't
working. OMG!!!! what you going to do dummies. Well pack up your tools dummies
because we going to repair a rice cooker.
Rice cooker works as same as electric kettle and
electric iron box. It change rice cooker turn electrical energy into heat
energy. You need water to achieve your rice cooker can cook your rice and make
steam to make fishy food. YUM!!! YUM!!!.
It has same component that has in electric kettle
and electric iron box. A heating element and thermocouple. As usual a heating
element turn electrical energy into heat energy. SO the heating element has
resistance to make heat. Rice cooker comes with variety of design. But in
common inside a rice cooker has huge pot made of aluminum. So when the heating
element heating, It need water to distribute heat to the pot.That's the reason
water is needed.
In thermocouple works like electric kettle (Not
like electric iron box. It has thermostat to control heat). When the water or
food heat at in higher temperature, the thermocouple will turn off the rice
cooker immediately. So Life will be easy if you have rice cooker.
how it maintain a rice cooker in order to make it
last long.
1) Check the continuity of power cord of your
rice cooker. If the cord fails to power your rice cooker, you need to replace
new power cord. The continuity of the cable must in 0 ohm.
2) Check the resistance of heating element. If
the heating element fails, you food wont cook and your need to use your stove.
So use multi meter and check the resistance of the heating element. If the
reading is not accurate than your reading done by calculation, you need to
replace new on. Use R=V/I to calculate the resistance value.
3) Check the continuity of thermocouple. If the
thermocouple fails, it also damage the heating element and your rice cooker.
You can feel your rice cooker too hot and don't turn of automatically, that the
sign the thermocouple get spoil. So use multi meter to check continuity on
thermocouple,if it fail replace new one.The continuity value must be 0 ohm.
TO
MAKE YOUR RICE COOKER LAST LONG CHECK THE COMPONENT ONCE IN TWO MONTHS. IF
DON'T WORK COMPLETELY THROW AWAY AND BUY NEW ONE. MAYBE PANASONIC RICE COOKER
IS GOOD I GUESS.
Hiw make Chaqe the resistance
