Business as usual over Christmas

The Christmas break will soon be upon us, but don't worry if you need our products or services - we will be operating as normal throughout the Christmas period. So we'll be dispatching orders and carrying out repairs. Although we might take a quick break from the workshop for some Christmas dinner :-)

Brand new 70 Ohm GHD heater element with thermistor attached. Heater has small ring crimps on the end for screwing onto a PCB and thermistor has bare ends for soldering on to the top of the PCB. This heater element measures 15mm x 70mm

The thermistor on this part has the correct beta value for use in Mk4 and Mk5 GHDs. This means that they will operate at the correct temperature.

For more details about GHD heater elements, please see our heaters page. These instructions are also basically correct for all models of GHD, however the parts may look slightly different.

You must renew the thermal paste when fitting a new element. This is available as an extra with this item for £1.10

All heater resistance values are nominal. Heater resistances can vary plus/minus 10 ohms however this is normal and does not affect operation.

Please look at the additional images for information regarding fitting and correct wire routing and soldering.

Please watch the video below for details on how to solder the thermistor wires to the PCB, the video also includes details of how to replace just the thermistor if you prefer.
