So my brother used my coffee machine with no water in the tank.
Next time I turned it on, there was no pumping noise. I turned power on and off, tried the cleaning cycle, disconnected power but still couldn't get the pumping noise.
I can still hear clicking noises from the solenoids when trying to pull a shot, but the pump was not working. So I dismembered the machine, to find it has corrosive cancer in some spots.
I checked the resistance across the thermo fuse on the pump, 0 resistance so still seems fine. However the pump has a very high resistance, which I assume means it has burnt out.
I can buy a new pump and replace it, but does anyone know of any other potential causes, why the pump in the BES860 may not be turning on?
Might be time just to buy a new machine.
Cheers
