    Can you pls give your inputs as to how to fix the blinking light problem of the same Cuisinart model? In my sandwich maker and panini press both the left as well as the right knob light start flickering at the same time and the device wouldn't heatup

any tips on how to fix a broken thermostat?

Will any green LED work? Or does it have to be a particular voltage?

Bob Mounger -

How do I get the heating element off? It seems pretty securely connected via the red and white wires connected to the machine. Is there an easy way to disassemble this part? I honestly just want to clean the baked on grease on the pans but I’ve got to remove the heating element in order to do that. Any advice would be most appreciated. Thanks!
