Replacing the switch on your electric blanket is a straightforward process that you can easily do at home with just a few tools. Follow this step-by-step guide to ensure a successful switch replacement for your electric blanket.
**Step 1: Gather your tools**.
Before you begin, make sure you have all the necessary tools on hand. You will need a screwdriver, wire cutters, wire strippers, and a new switch that matches your electric blanket's specifications.

For safety purposes, always make sure to unplug your electric blanket before attempting any repairs or replacements.

Locate the control module on your electric blanket, typically located near the power cord. Use a screwdriver to carefully remove the screws holding the control module in place.

Once you have removed the control module, locate the wires connected to the old switch. Use wire cutters to carefully cut the wires, making sure to leave enough length to connect to the new switch.
