TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
SYMPTOM POSSIBLE
CAUSE
WHAT TO
CHECK
REMEDY
CAN'T START BREW CYCLE
1. No water.
2. No power.
3. Warmer switch not on
4. Brew start switch.
5. Timer or timer harness.
6. Solenoid valve.
1. Incoming water lines & water shut
off valve.
2. Fuse or circuit breaker.
Power cord and plug connections.
3. Switch is on and lighted red,
continuity
4. Switch continuity.
(Normally closed.)
5. Wire leads to solenoid and
white 3-pin connector.
6. (A) Voltage at solenoid valve
terminals. Start a brew cycle and
check for 120 volts AC.
(B) If voltage is present at
terminals, check for water at line
pressure on the inlet side of
solenoid valve.
1. Be sure water shut off is open.
2. Replace or reset circuit protector
3. If warmer switch does not make and
break contact, replace warmer switch.
4. If brew start switch does not make and
break contact, replace brew start switch.
5. Make sure these connections are tight. If
so, and all else checks out OK, replace
timer.
6. (A) If voltage is not present at terminals,
refer to steps 2 through 5.
(B) If voltage is present at terminals and
water at line pressure is present on the
inlet side of the solenoid, but not present
on the outgoing side, replace solenoid.
NO HOT WATER
1. Tank heater.
2. Hi-limit thermostat or main
thermostat.
1. Check the voltage at the tank
heater terminals. Voltage should be
as indicated on the serial tag (on
rear of brewer.)
2. Check the voltage between the
VIOLET/RED wire on the tank
element and the incoming terminal
(VIOLET/BLACK) on tthe hi-limit
thermostat, then the outgoing
terminal (VIOLET/BLACK) on the
hi-limit thermostat.
1. (A) If correct voltage is present at the
tank heater terminals and water in tank is
not being heated, replace the tank heater.
(B) If voltage is not present at the tank
heater terminals refer, to step 2.
(C) If incorrect voltage is present at the
tank heater terminals, check voltage at
outlet.
2. (A) If voltage is present on the incoming
terminal of the hi-limit thermostat, but
not on the outgoing terminal, replace the
hi-limit thermostat.
(B) Check voltage at the terminal blocks.
If voltage is not present check outlet or
circuit breaker.
(C) If voltage is not present on the
incoming terminal of the hi-limit
thermostat, replace the main thermostat.
DRIPPING
1. Not siphoning properly.
2. Solenoid valve not seating
properly.
1. Water should flow freely from the
sprayhead.
2. Solenoid valve assembly.
1. (A) Clean sprayhead holes.
(B) Check tightness of sprayhead tube.
(C) See "DELIMING" , Page 5.
2. Be sure spring is in place and any
particles are cleaned from valve seat. If
valve seat is worn or mutilated, replace
solenoid valve.
STEAMING OR SPITTING
AROUND FUNNEL
1. Main thermostat.
2. High altitude.
1. Thermostat points stuck or out of
calibration.
2. Located above 5,000 feet.
1. (A) Adjust thermostat.
(B) Thermostat should be calibrated or
replaced.
2. See "INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS", Page 4..
WATER KEEPS RUNNING
1. Solenoid valve.
2. Start switch.
3. Timer
1. Refer to "DRIPPING", Step 1.
2. Remove wires from switch and
check continuity.
3. Solid state timers are not
repairable. If timer will not shut
off, replace timer.
1. Refer to "DRIPPING", Step 1.
2. If start switch does not make and break
contact, switch should be replaced.
3. Replace timer.
