Electric Blanket Repair

That's from the 90's. Not something you would want to repair or use and the blankets themselves they probably didn't repair, just the thermostat.

The firm where I worked as an electrician, used to buy a bale of used rags, probably discards from thrift shops. A lot of times, the bale would come wrapped with an electric blanket. Many of them would be so worn, that you could see the resistance wire. It looked like the core in a resistance line cord.
The one in question, looks like it's been washed several times.
When in doubt, throw it out!
