Introduction

The Black and Decker 3-Cup Rice Cooker contains a brass plate that prevents access to the inside of the device. The internal portion of the device contains wire junctions that prevent access to the internal parts. In this guide we will remove both.

    • Color coordinating wire groups make it easier to identify the wire groups during reassembly.

    • Inside the device, there are three junctions with wires joined by Phillips-head screws. The first is connected to two wires, and the other two are connected to three wires each.

    • Unscrew the screw at the junction near the opposite side of the device from the front panel.

    • Label each of the two wires at this junction with a single color of tape.
