Thanks! Ours wore out at the crimped part where the cable exits the rice cooker. After opening it up, we cut the cable ~6" from the loose end (not the plug end!), separated the two wire bundles, stripped part of the black plastic off (~1/5") slid the fiberglass sheaths over to the new bundles and attached w/o the circle metal ends by screwing it into the original place.
