I have a Sunbeam EM6910 has been a good machine…
Steam became intermittent and weak for a few days then stopped working altogether...
I bought the machine second hand and I have had it for a few years now so.. I’m guessing I don’t have any recourse to warranty from SB.
I have a tendency to tinker with broken electrical and/or mechanical equipment.
So I pulled off the steam knob and bridged the micro switch to factor it out of the equation.
Now I’m thinking of replacing the steam pump as I have the service manual and it doesn’t look too difficult.
I have a couple of questions:
[list bull-blackball][*]Where is the best place to buy spares? This looks like a good source: spares.bigwarehouse.com.au
[*]Is there anything out of the ordinary about replacing the steam pump I should be aware of? Could I be barking up the wrong tree and something else has failed perhaps?[/list]
Cheers,
Stonie.
