Wahl Magic Clipper Repair
Description
I have a set of Wahl Magic Clippers, cordless, that have stopped working. initially I assumed there was a problem with the power cord because the power indicator light on the clippers would not light when the clippers were plugged in. I replaced the power cord, but that did not fix the clippers. The next most-likely failed part in the clippers is the circuit board, so I purchased a replacement board and installed it in the clippers. This fixed the problem, and this video will show how that can be done. The first circuit board I bought was purchased on Amazon for about $18. The listing said it was compatible with my exact model of clipper. But, when it arrived, it was not the same. So I had to go to https://www.goodmans.net/ to order the correct part. This cost $18.14 plus $6.50 for shipping. After tax, total cost was $26.14.
Here is the link to the exact part I purchased. https://www.goodmans.net/i/10023/wahl-90302-100-90302-101-clipper-charging-recepto.htm
I also purchased a soldering iron from Amazon. It cost $11.99 and worked as it should. This soldering iron has 5,329 reviews and is at 4.5 stars. Here is the link to that: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D4PPV8CR?ref=fed_asin_title&th=1
I purchased a charger from Amazon, that did not fix the problem, but does work. If you are looking for a new charger, you might want this one. Cost is $11.99.
