Warming plate does not turn on after brewing; coffee cools quickly.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Open warming plate element, Failed warming plate relay, Faulty thermostat, Loose wiring to plate

Safety: Unplug and cool the unit before testing.

1. Check for any warmth:
- Immediately after brewing, carefully feel near the plate; if completely cold, proceed to internal checks.
2. Test plate element and thermostat:
- Access the underside of the plate and measure resistance across the heater and thermostat.
- Replace the warming plate assembly if open.
3. Inspect relay and wiring:
- Check the control board relay and wiring harness for continuity and secure connections.
- Replace the control board if the relay does not energize.
