How to i fix my electric pencil sharpener?

Question

I have an X-acto helix 1900 electric pencil sharpener. I have tried cleaning out the blade i have removed even the slightest trace of shavings. all of a sudden it just stopped working, any ideas about how to fix it because i really don't want to buy a new one

Answer 1

If you are an experienced electrical repair person, you cpuld disassemble it and be certain the switch is clean and operating properly and then try to rewind the motor if it is faulty. Otherwise at the price of a pencil sharpener, it is hardly worth the effort and certainly not worth fixing.
