Possible Causes
Unstable household power, Failing control board memory, Internal capacitor degradation, Frequent unplugging of unit
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug before opening the housing.
- Keep plugged in: Leave the coffee maker connected to a stable outlet to maintain clock power.
- Avoid switched outlets: Do not plug into an outlet controlled by a wall switch that may be turned off.
- Power quality: If your home has frequent outages, consider a small surge protector or UPS for sensitive electronics.
- Board replacement: If the clock resets even with stable power, the control board's timekeeping circuit is failing and the board may need replacement.
Timer inaccuracy is usually a control board issue rather than a user-serviceable part.
