Possible Causes

Frequent power outages or unplugging, Weak backup capacitor or battery on control board, Faulty control PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before any internal inspection.

  • Stable power: Keep the coffee maker plugged into a stable outlet and avoid switching it off at a power strip.
  • Surge protection: Use a surge protector to reduce the impact of brief outages or spikes.
  • Internal backup (advanced): On some boards, a small capacitor or coin-cell battery maintains clock memory. If visibly leaking or swollen, the board should be replaced.

If the clock resets even without power interruptions, the control board is likely failing and may need replacement.
