Hi All
Just bought a secondhand machine which has not been used for about 2yrs. I am having some issues the first issue was a blocked jet which i cleaned and is now working.
The second issue has been harder to diagnose. The machine switches off randomly, i.e. boiler heating element switches off. Initially thought it was a sticky pstat Ma-ter switch, which I changed. But I am still have the same issue!
My next guess (literally) is the water level switch. Why this switch? When the heating element switched off I opened the steam valve and let all the steam out and closed the valve. I noticed that the water pump switched and the pressure started to go back up. COuld it be that i have a faulty water level switch? H.E.L.P.
I have had a look on coffee parts, and it is a $20 odd dollar part. I dont want to be constantly swapping out parts like a bad motor mechanic. Can anyone give me some good advice?
Cheers
