  • ECM Technika Rotary Pump Not Steaming or producing hot water

    Hi Guys, i Have a 2 Year old ECM Technika Rotary, has never missed a beat until last week it is now not Making Steam pressure or hot water but can still pour a shot of coffee. Any ideas on what this could be or why it has done this? also i live out Penrith way is there anyone out this way that does repairs/service instead of taking it all the way to Bondi ?
    Thanks

    Does the shot come out hot or not? :-)

    Edit: if the shot has some heat in it, I'd be looking at the pressurestat. If it's cold, the pressurestat, element or possibly an over temperature protection device. If it's the protection device, expect to look further to find the fault.

    Regards,

    Matt

      Probably another shot element relay, we discussed it in depth here: http://coffeesnobs.com.au/brewing-eq...ntrol-box.html

      The Technika is a HX machine, if it has no steam or hot water then it can't make hot espresso.

      I'm in Bathurst and can do the repairs for you if you prefer to travel this way. I have the relays in stock.

          Hi Coffee19, have you check the sensor? the one is located in the water tank.

          The other thing you can do, if you have a set of Allen Keys, take out the top off and check if one of the safety thermostat has pop out, just a matter of press

          give a buzz if you want more details
