Creda Storage Heater no longer working

[Sal92]

Hello,
I did a stupid thing and put clothes on my heater as I was desperate to dry them as I was going away. I realised in time that clothes were starting to stick to heater as it got way too hot. Anyway, heater was off while I was away for the week and now won't work at all since I switched it back on. I think I have broken it. Any advice appreciated.

The fusible link that is part of the the input/output control mechanism may have blown and need replacement. See here for example:

You can buy a box of fusible links from Creda or from your nearest Electrical wholesaler and replace it. The fusible link is there to prevent the storage heater from catching fire if you block the air vent at the top of it .
