I plug in and light comes on. but no heat I have only used it a few times even though I have had it awhile

Just open the Iron and adjust the thermo control and see it’s heating or not . If the Iron got heat it’s ok or if not heat check the elements in the bottom then you can sure the fault.

Normally Heating devices are protected with what we called “Thermal Fuse” which are connected in Series to the Main Line, If you can locate it it looks like a small fuse, crimped in a wire sometimes and comes in a different color like yellow, white or black. sometimes it is covered by a shrinkable tube if you know it. If you can use a Multimeter you can test the Leads of the Heating Element from end to end there should be a low resistance reading from your meter should appear, if it not reads at all then your heating filament is open. Its a sealed type. please think always Safety do not work on it with Power connected , be sure Unplug the Power and ask for a qualified serviceman if your not sure on doing it. Have a nice day.

you can open the lid and check if power cable is disconnected from the element or maybe the element has blown up note that is irreplaceble
