  • How to change a ECM Gauge Dial Face Plate?

    Guys, Im wanting to change the dial face plate on my ECM Giotto  - its has faded over the years.
    This is the white faced dial w/ the steam/bar pressure reading.

    However, is it something I should change myself, or get a techniccian look to at?

    Im under the impression its simply a matter of clipping the small 4 indents on the outside dial crown and removing it from the from of the machine, rather than having to pull the machine apart?

    Im I correct in saying this?

    Look forward to hearing from you experts. Thanks..

    Hi SCP,

    You will need to replace the entire gauge and to do this the top cover will need to be removed from the machine.

    The gauge has a long thin copper tube which bolts up to the boiler and the gauge itself is attached from behind with a supporting bracket and nut.

    If your machine is an old Giotto classic, youre out of luck for an original replacement, but you can replace the gauge with one from a Giotto premium.

    The part will cost you around $50 + around 10 min of technician time if you dont feel confident to do it yourself.

    regards

    Chris
