Hi everyone.
I've been using a Microclimate Ministat 100 since I got my corn snake in July but I've always been having issues with it. Most of the time there's a 5oC drop before it turns back on, or it goes 3-4 degrees over the set temperature and is too hot.

Today I cleaned out my snake's tank and the stat is completely messed up now. The temps are going way up to 34oC (it even went to 40 but I didnt have my snake in at the time) and isn't turning off, even when I turn the dial down. It did this once before but I fixed it however this time nothing is working.

What should I do? I'm afraid of my snake getting burnt or having breathing issues if it keeps this up. She's also in the middle of shedding.

Is the mat definately plugged into the stat and not the wall?
If so I'd say get a new stat haha
