Introduction
This standard electric cordless kettle would only work in certain orientations on its stand as shown in above video.
This was due to one of the contacts in the base unit being in the wrong position. Using a small jewellers screwdriver or similar it was possible to bend the contact back (with mains disconnected of course!) so it now works.
The fault developed after about 4years. I suspect that the insulating effect of incremental arcing damage caused the fault to get progressively worse with time.
Conclusion
A simple repair to get your kettle working more reliably at any orientation on its stand.
