The cord you plug into the adapter on my electric blanket falls out with every move. I have a throw blanket and the cord just will not stay attached. I tried to return it but had lost the receipt so they would not allow me to exchange it.
I would try to take some masking tape and wrap around the plug-in and then push the other piece over it. The tape might help go hold it together.

Thanks I'll try it!
I am looking for all the wires and cords that go into an electric blanket.
I need a replacement controller for Serra foot warmer, model JC-PFI-NJD-01,120v 60hz 50w.
Could you call Serta and see if its still under warranty? Or if they have the part for sale.
eBay would be a good place to start.
There are 2 controls presently listed on eBay but the cost is $24.00 and there is a new complete unit for $34.95 so maybe you might want to think about what to buy.

I've had the heating blanket since 2012 and have rarely used it, but now in January of 2016 it has been blizzarding cold and I decided to use the 3 tier heating control blanket. All of a sudden one of the cords has not shown red for power on. I tried putting in a new fuse, but nothing. I feel it has to do with the cord. I've tried to find the replacement, but am unable to find it. The model is ACHNWSK input 220-240V-50HZ 70W. Serial no. S0068218.
Can you help? Much appreciated.
I've found electric blankets and controllers are not well documented. While all blankets work on the same principles, that is where the similarities end. Some are dual blankets (his'n hers), some sense room temperature, some controllers contain timers, etc. If you know the model number of your blanket, go on eBay and type that in for a search.
Where do you find the model number? I found RN number and PN and then a stamped in ink another number. This is a Sunbeam dual control electric blanket.
We have a king size heated blanket and one control just quit. The control says it fits either a twin blanket or 1/2 of this king.
By Fisher
You do not provide the blanket maker, however, just search online for the manufacturer and contact for a replacement.
You will need the brand name to order a new control, and probably the model number as well.
I just bought this blanket at an estate auction. It looks practically brand new, but no control or cord. The label has no manufacturer at all.
I am looking for a 3 pronged cord with controller for an electric blanket (full size, 170 watts).
By Donna
Have you Googled the blanket manufacturer to find the website? Most manufacturers have a website, and on the website they sell replacement parts.
When my controllers stop working, I have had luck finding a replacement at Salvation Army Store or the like. I take the blanket itself or the controller so I can get the exact same replacement and try it out and make sure it works.
I have an electric blanket that is missing a cord. The model is A-83313. The manufacturer is Automatic Blanket Plant in Smithfield, NC.
Another number here is Listed Blanket 341-B, E15945. Can I even find a replacement?I have lost the electric cord connection to my SCE electric blanket, model number TSK200x155x40cm-2xym. Kindly advise where and how I can replace same or find a company that can re-manufacture the two plugs and cord connection for me.
Thank you

I need a new power cord for my throw. My puppy chewed it, so I need a replacement.
You can buy these on eBay although there are none listed at the moment. Just be wary of buying used. Look for new old stock and sellers with high feedback.
You may want to try bitter apple spray to keep the pup from chewing cords and G-d forbid getting a shock.
Does anyone know where I can buy a spare controller for a Dreamcatcher duel heat (heats top & bottom independently) electric blanket, super king?
Thanks.
You can contact the manufactures and check how much a spare controller would be, or check on eBay.

Take the blanket to your local thrift store and find one that works. If you tell them what you are doing, it's fine to bring in something. Good luck!

Where can I find a replacement JC Penney's electric blanket wide 2- prong power cord?
By Carrie from Gary, IN
Where do I find a control for a queen size electric blanket? I need one for the right side. On the back of the control is - WestPoint, Inc. Elkin, N.C. 28681.
By D
On the control it says Sleep-Rite. There is a hole in the cord right next where you plug it into the blanket and I don't want to use it. The blanket has three places to plug in. Two holes are close together and the other is off to itself a little bit.
By Marcia
Try the Sleep-Rite site: http://www.sleep-rite.com
I am trying to locate a replacement control for the 950 West Point electric blanket.
By Dolores R
An easy online search reveals that West Point no longer makes electric blankets and also notes that the controllers have been a problem for many customers. Try this site for more information:

The label says automatic electric blanket, queen size, style 13 - 180 watts 110-120 volts A.C. only. And the numbers on the end of the label read 70912 02. It has one 3 prong plug-in and 2 controls.

One of the controls for a Living Quarters electric blanket quit so we are looking for a control. It's in a black box with red and blue control buttons with on/off in middle. The plug that connects to the blanket is a large 4 conductor. It is a digital display.
By Leon K
This may be difficult to find. I see blanket controls at Thrift stores sometimes and some controls will fit different makers but only you could tell if this were the case. eBay also has controls listed. Have you tried the Living Quarters web site?
My dog chewed up the control for my Westpoint home electric blanket. I need a new 900 control; where can I get one? It is a dual control with 2 plug ins at the end of the blanket.
By liltami
Have you tried Ebay yet? You could also get in touch with the manufacturer of the blanket, and get a brand new one from them also.
I need controls for a Sleep Philosophy electric plush heated ivory king blanket. Any ideas on where to find one?
By Debbie S. from Fairmont, WV
When I need new controls, I draw a picture of the plug in or take a picture of it on my cell phone and go to the thrift stores or goodwill stores. They have some and I match the picture with the plug in and I have a new control. Good Luck.
I bought an electric blanket at Carson's last winter, no name on tag on blanket, but the controller that went bad says Living Quarters on it. I am looking for new controller, any ideas where I can get one? Or does anyone have address or phone number of the company? It has 4 prongs. Thanks!
By Mary
Do a search online putting in "livingquarters electric blanket" the results will give you the names of stores that sell that brand, They are relatively high end blankets. You can go to the store and look up the info on their packaging.
I have a JCP dual control electric blanket. One controller no longer works. It has a 2 prong plugin. Is there a replacement for it?
By Jo
I have always been able to find replacement controls at Salvation Army, Goodwill or Unique stores. Just make sure you get an exact match at the connection. Until you find one put the blanket on sideways and at least both people can have heat but it will be a warm upper body or warm feet? Your choice. JK Good Luck!
