    Re: Sunbeam EM6910 Lights Flashing Forever

    I find it absolutely unbelievable that we are having so many problems with these sunbeam machines.

    It must be really hurting their brand.

    I am going to sell mine, I have also decided not to purchase the sunbeam grinder and all sunbeam products are coming off our wedding register. This is all due to the issues I have had with this, supposedly, top of the line machine.

      I had exactly the same issue with my Sunbeam, we have had ours for over 4 years so we bit the bullet and bought a new one.

      Tried it this morning and have had issues straight off the bat. This is particularly disappointing as we have absolutely loved our Sunbeam. Back to the shop today for replacement me thinks.

      Nasty phone call from the wife whilst waiting for the train this morning r.e. machine not working. My wife without her long black first thing is extremely frightening

        Mmm, I would like to have known what the issue was for the OP.

        This same fault has happened with my 6910.
        However, this machine is approx 6-7 years old and has made 6-7000 cups of coffee, so it is not all bad.

        Question is going to be how much will it cost to fix it, at least it is not an "old model", they are still being sold new.
        The only thing that has been replaced on this machine is the steam thermoblock, and the group head seal.


        All fixed, posted in my thread.
        Aha - all lights back on now.
        It was not a sensor, but a blown thermal cut out (fuse).

        $45.00 at the local repair agents and it is all good.

        Mine has done exactly the same thing on Boxing Day. Very common fault if you search the forums. Thanks rawill, good to hear there is a possible easy fix sub $100. Much more than that and I fear I'll be tossing good money after bad. I'll take the punt and let you know.

          See my thread on this too, a great write up in reply to my question.
          Full of important info.
          Wish I had read it before I took it in so I could do the testing myself.
