Possible Causes
Faulty brew button or touch panel, Control board input failure, Safety interlock (door or tray) not engaged, Software lock due to incomplete previous cycle
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the machine before cleaning the control panel.
- Check safety interlocks: Ensure the water tank, drip tray, dreg drawer, and service door are all fully inserted and closed.
- Cancel previous cycle: Turn the machine off and back on. Allow it to complete any automatic rinsing or self-test before pressing brew.
- Clean control panel: Wipe the buttons or touch surface with a slightly damp, non-abrasive cloth. Dry thoroughly. Moisture or dirt can prevent proper contact.
- Try alternate drinks: If one specific button does not respond but others do, the individual switch may be faulty and require replacement.
- If no buttons respond: The user interface board or ribbon cable may be defective. Professional diagnosis is required.
