How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: If the breaker trips, do not repeatedly reset it without finding the cause. Unplug the coffee maker.

  • Test on another outlet: Plug into a different circuit to confirm if the issue follows the coffee maker.
  • Inspect cord and plug: Look for damage or burn marks. Replace if any are found.
  • Internal inspection (advanced): Remove the bottom cover and check for pinched wires, exposed conductors, or burnt components. Repair or replace damaged wiring.
  • Test heater: Use a multimeter to check the heating element for shorts to ground. Replace the element if shorted.
