Hey man, props to saving all these people money by showing them that appliance repair is sometimes possible. 😃
I'm a big believer in fixing things rather then replacing things awsome video
My hair straightener cord is about to do this.. I did a quick search and found this video. Instead of buying another expensive replacement, I will be heading to Home Depot to repair it, myself. Thank you for saving my ass over $150 💯 You're doing the Lord's work.
Amen!
Well you gave me confidence to do this myself. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. 3 years later, is still helping folks. RAR Sacramento, CA 4/23/23
Thanks No Comment!
I simply cannot thank you enough for this AMAZING video! I used your link to order the plug from Amazon, since Home Depot did not have it. I followed your instructions exactly, and guess what? My beloved vacuum has a beautiful brand new plug! I did it all by myself, thanks to you! Best instructional video EVER!
Great video! I am an old lady and I think I can actually achieve replacing the plug on my 40+ year old Electrolux Marquis. Thanks so much!
Awesome, thank you. Our vacuum cord at work broke, the prong ended up in the outlet. This video helped me to fix it since we didn't have a guy around to take care of it. Us women like to keep things clean you know. Took a pair of scissors and a sharp knife. It worked!! But we then realized someone bought the wrong plug replacement. I am picking up the right one and our vacuum will be back in action for less than $5! Thank you.
Absolutely great tutorial. Quick, simple, and straightforward.
Thanks for making this. I have an old Bradford radio from the late 60s that I'm going to need to replace the plug on, and this is going to help so much.
Really appreciate the simple straight forward directions, without any extra fluff. Got yourself a new subscriber.
Thanks for watching!
My teenager followed your video and fixed the vacuum cleaner cord. Thank you for the amazing video.
Tell your teenager great job!
This was a big money saver. Very grateful for the sound instruction and easy to follow demo.
Thanks for watching!
I recently pulled my vacuum plug out of the outlet and it broke. I watched your video and was able to replace the broken plug. It works great! Thank you!
Thank you SO MUCH for this. I was feeling absolutely heartbroken & lost about my subwoofer breaking but this gives me hope :)
Thank you! The guy at Home Depot said the wires didn't matter. I see that you said black to gold(brass?) and white to silver. I figured it mattered and I specifically asked, so I am glad I found you. You helped my family be safe.
Great to hear!
While it is true that the appliance doesn't care which wire is connected to hot vs neutral, you absolutely might. Polarization ensures that the wire you're more likely to touch is the neutral; it's a safety feature
Thank you for making this video. You saved us $300-$400 for a new vacuum, by just replacing the plug! Thanks😊👍🏻
You're welcome!!
Wow! Glad to have found this video, I literally thought I had to buy an entire new adjustable frame for my bed I’ve been having for 14 years and now I know what to do to fix my broken plug! Great video thanks 😊
And to think I was going to throw out my $300 heater! I definitely will do this thank you!
This idea is much better than cutting off a different cord off an old appliance and pairing the two with electrical tape. Cleaner.
Ditto everyone! Useful to the max
I’m curious though does it matter that the original plug was two prong and the one you chose to replace it with was three prong? 4:46
I’ve never seen a video so on point... thanks✔️
You helped save my microwave plug, which broke last night. Thank you so much!! Very informative & straightforward. The process was super easy.
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the great video! I now have three working Electrolux vacuum cleaners instead of three pieces of junk, and it didn't cost me a repair bill. Once again, thanks.
This was the exact appliance (same brand too) that I needed to replace. You just saved me about $500. Thank you so much!
Glad I could help!
I needed this video. My wife has a HD vibrator that uses a plug-in. It broke recently, and she started giving me those bedroom eyes. I knew I had to fix it before I became her sacrificial lamb. This video saved me... Thanks Again...
Glad to save the day…
Thanks for easy to follow video. I needed to get my plug replaced but your video gave me the confidence to do it myself. Your video saved me time and money. Thank you very much!
I have a Shark vacuum that I yank out of the socket, and one of the prongs broke off. Last time this happened I had to buy the Shark I have now. Now after finding this video, I won't have to buy a new one.
This is incredible, Thank you.
Thank you....I was thinking I had to buy a new vacuum cleaner but instead went to Home Depot and followed your steps and fixed my vacuum.
I’m so excited, I got a vintage/antique sewing machine recently and the plug needs to be replaced
Now I gotta figure out how to fix the spot where the wires connect to the machine (it kind of loops around two nubs)
Labor will always be what gets you every single time so it's always been wiser to do it yourself when you can. My younger brother took his car to the dealership to have his battery replaced once. Once. He was young, he never made that mistake again. I don't remember the exact numbers as it was in the 90's, but the labor was 2.5x the cost of the battery (dealership prices, mind you, which are always higher but still..). For this repair, either DIY or buy a new one; the repair would probably cost nearly as much as a new appliance
Omg you saved me from buying a vacuum You're awesome thank you
You're welcome!!
This video is extremely helpful. I was able to follow your instructions and accomplished the task in minutes. Thanks for your help:)
Hi. I want to say thank you for this video. I assume that replacing a plug end is standard all around as I needed to replace a plug for an old electric heater. You saved me from throwing it away. This was the only thing left that I had of my dad's since he passed away years ago and did not want to part ways with it. It seems simple to replace and I am grateful for being led to your video 😃🙌!
Glad to help!
Thank you so much for this video. Fan said return to manufacturer for cord replacement. Fixed in short order thanks to this video.
Great to hear!
Cool man. Wife was about to send me to the store to buy a new vacuum!
That should save you a few bucks!
T.V cord just broke, nervous but with these great instructions I can't mess It up.
How did it go?
@@ThriftyGarage I worked at first,then I had to strip the wire more because it kept coming out. Then it short circuited. Should've got the electric tape 😂
This is great. Got the same exact problem on an old Miele. I originally soldered it but that failed quickly. It's a polarized 2-prong but I like the stabilizing effect of the large 3-prong plug like you did. Thanks!
I have a 10 year old Miele, issue is with the cord by the plug end, obviously the wiring inside is faulty it works if you bend it the right way. I think replacing the plug to cord will be easier?
I just saved a vacuum cleaner much like the one in your video thanks to this. Thank you!
That is great to hear!
Thx my friend, you save me $$$$ I was ABT to purchase a vacum
This was amazing and easy to follow and now I don’t have to go buy a new wet dry vac after my husky chewed the plug off! Thank you!
You showed me exactly what I needed to know thanks
Glad it helped!
Appreciated. Its amazing really how simple some of these fixes are.
All I needed was Black is Gold and White was Silver. Thanks! GREAT VIDEO
Thanks!
Simple and straightforward! Thank you for taking the time to make this video! I will do this as well.
Awesome!
Thank you, Carson! That was thoroughly explained and easy to follow. We have achieved Success!! 😁

Excellent tutorial. Thank you for making it clear and simple.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for saving my day with this great video. Simple instructions and to the point.
Glad it helped!
Impressed with your instruction! Very simple very professional
This is exactly the problem that I have with the identical vacuum, going to Ace Hardware now!!
Omg! Thank you so much! I almost threw away a $90.00 dollars cooling fan because of this issue. Thank you so much.🙏🏾
Glad it helped!
Hey, I just came across this video and I’ve been stressing. I’m gonna try to do this to my $200 curling iron that one of the prongs broke off so I’ll update you!!!
Thanks for helping us get this thing fixed!😃
No problem 👍
Incredibly super simple! Thanks for the instruction!
You're welcome!
Thanks for making this. You helped me save a lot of money.
Glad I could help!
Great video! You just saved me about $300-400 on a new air conditioner!
Fantastic 👍 will change the broken plug right now thx
Nice pink scissors. I always steal the house scissors too!
My kids just did the same thing to my vacuum. I am gonna try to fix it. Wish me luck lol
Good luck 👍
Thanks for great advice. Nice instructional video. Can't wait to fix my broken plugs tomorrow.
Glad to hear we could help.
Great instructions- now I am going to change the plug on my leaf blower instead of buying another!😊
Thanks for the Demo, I will give it a shot later today.
Thank you. I've done this before but years ago. Easy to understand!
Thanks for watching!
Short and sweet, thanks!
Thanks for watching!
this is really great. question, why not leave the insulation on?
Thank you so much!!! Big Help.. Appreciate you.. 🥰
great, I borrowed the tool and got the job done!
Thank you!!! So much!! I my plug didn’t show any difference in colors both sides were gold I had to guess, I hope I didn’t ruin it
And done!
Thanks so much!
Super helpful thanks
It works
Perfect , exactly what I needed thanks!
2024 thank you for this information.
Thank you!! Thank you!!
So appreciate your great tutorial on this!
Glad to help!
Thank you for this
A have a case with a dehumidifier, I have to replace the plug end every three or four months because it gets burned after a hot spot is produced in one of the prongs. In using a plug similar to the one you use NEMA5-15P . Seems to be that after a while one of the screw contact forms a hot spot and overheat the blade. I'm thinking todo a try with another type plug end which terminal is a compressed hole
Thank you for the video, it saves me $25
Awesome!
Thank you
Great video..very self explanatory..
Thank you so much you saved my $600 Dyson
Thank you. I'm going to try to do this.
You can do it!
I did it 👍👍 thank you
Thanks brother God bless
I had no idea it may be hard or impossible to find a replacement heavy duty, ungrounded plug. I guess I'm lucky they have plenty at my local Ace (although they are a bit harder to work with, due to lacking the backwiring clamps)
AWESOME!!!!! LOveLY!!!!
AGREED!
update: i did this and blew a fuse. 😔
Thanks!
Great vid. Exactly what I needed. Thank you Carson
Thanks for watching!
very imformative, thanks for the help. keep up the great work.
This is Very Big Brain
All I needed was " Black gold, silver goes to white."
Also use bright to white…..silver is bright
K
Thank you🙏🙏🙏
Thank You Soooooo Much❤❤❤❤
Thanks found a beautiful lamp by a dumpster, easily a $200 lamp with what looks like chewed through wire
Excellent -- thank you
You are welcome!
Thanks for the great DIY video!
THANK YOU!!!
You're welcome!
Are all plugs like that compatible with all power cords? I have an electrolux vac and the info tag has worn off. I don't know the voltage. If I want to buy one like you have, what do you call it? I'll be getting it on Amazon. Thanks. UPDATE: I just found them on Amazon, looks like 15 amp will do the trick.
If it has parallel blades, it's a 15 amp plug. If it has perpendicular (horizontal neutral), it's 20 amp (North America)
Thank you!!!!!!
Thank you! This is very useful to know.
Glad to help!
Great tutorial! The only thing is that there were TWO brass wires (NOT a white & a gold). Hmm...someone else had the same question.
What color was the insulation?
