The GHD ceramic heating element, code SIRHEATMS5-1, designed for the Thin Mini MS 5.0 series, has a nominal resistance of 70 Ω and is made of ceramic. The ceramic heater generates the heat that is distributed across the surface used to straighten hair. Compatible with the models listed at the end of the description.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTechnical specifications\u003cbr\u003e- GHD compatible spare part\u003cbr\u003e- MPN (Manufacturer Part Number): SIRHEATMS5-1\u003cbr\u003e- Country of manufacture: Made in the United Kingdom\u003cbr\u003e- Material: ceramic\u003cbr\u003e- Colour: white\u003cbr\u003e- Compatible series (check the models under compatibility): Thin Mini MS 5.0\u003cbr\u003e- Thermal paste: Recommended\u003cbr\u003e- Type of resistance: Ceramic heating element\u003cbr\u003e- Integrated sensor: No - without integrated thermistor\u003cbr\u003e- Connection type: Cables with terminals\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDimensions manually verified by PG Service\u003cbr\u003e- Round 4.2mm spade terminals\u003cbr\u003e- Cable length 4.5cm \/ 45mm\u003cbr\u003e- Straightener length 70mm\u003cbr\u003e- Straightener width 7mm\u003cbr\u003e- Thickness 1.2mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpare part explanations\u003cbr\u003eThe resistance in a hair straightener heats the metal or ceramic plate that comes into indirect contact with the hair. The heating element is powered and regulated by the device's electronics, while sensors and safety systems monitor the temperature. A heater with a value of 70 Ω should only be used when this value, along with the dimensions and connections, matches that intended for the model: a different electrical resistance can alter the thermal power generated.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSymptoms, problems you can solve by replacing the resistance\u003cbr\u003eDoes one of the two plates remain cold while the other heats up normally? A broken heating element or a disconnected terminal are among the most likely causes when the fault affects only one plate.\u003cbr\u003eDoes one plate take much longer than the other to heat up or remain less hot? Insufficient heat distribution may be due to the element, the thermal interface, or the system that measures and regulates the temperature.\u003cbr\u003eIs the heating intermittent, and does the plate switch from hot to cold during use? Expansion caused by thermal cycles can make a pre-existing loose connection in the cables or ceramic element evident. Also check the PCB and sensor before replacing the component.\u003cbr\u003eDoes the straightener display an error, issue warnings, or cut off the heating before reaching the correct temperature? A temperature anomaly does not automatically identify the heater as faulty: the detection system and control board can generate very similar symptoms. An electrical measurement of the component avoids unnecessary replacements.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHow to preserve the component's lifespan\u003cbr\u003eThe internal heating element does not require periodic cleaning by the user. To preserve the hair straightener, it is best to keep the external surfaces clean when the device is cold and prevent hair products or liquids from penetrating inside. Water, sprays, and cosmetic products must not reach the heating resistance, terminals, or temperature sensor. A damaged resistance must not be glued or repaired with improvised materials.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstallation instructions\u003cbr\u003e- The procedure requires opening the straightener and accessing electrical components, so it is recommended for a technician. Unplug the device and wait for it to cool completely before disassembly.\u003cbr\u003e- Before removing the old heater, photograph the connections and electrically test the original component.\u003cbr\u003e- Carefully remove the old resistance, avoiding bending the metal support or damaging the thermistor. Clean up any residue from the previous thermal interface without scratching the surfaces.\u003cbr\u003e- For the new element, the use of thermal paste is Recommended. Apply it evenly according to the intended procedure and position the heater without creating gaps or pressure points.\u003cbr\u003e- Connect the terminals, respecting the original cable routing and preventing them from being crushed during reassembly.\u003cbr\u003e- After complete closure, perform an electrical and thermal test, checking that both plates heat up regularly and that the regulation operates correctly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTips from the PG Service professionals\u003cbr\u003e- Before replacing a ceramic resistance, check continuity and electrical resistance before concluding that the heater is actually faulty. For this component, the nominal value is 70 Ω: do not choose a resistance simply because it has similar dimensions. During installation, do not bend or twist the ceramic, as small microfractures can turn into breaks during subsequent thermal cycles. The use of thermal paste is Recommended to promote uniform contact with the heating support. The most common causes of failure are broken connections, ceramic fractures, thermal stress, and overheating caused by control circuit anomalies. To prolong the life of the heating element, always heat up the straightener with the terminals open and never with the block inserted, as the plates could overheat quickly, damaging the internal components.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDo you need anything else?\u003cbr\u003eIn addition to the electrical resistance spare part, we have many original GHD accessories and spare parts available in our catalogue.
