Possible Causes

Corrupted firmware or configuration on main board, Loose ribbon cable between display board and main board, Faulty display PCB, Main control board failure

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before opening the machine. Electronic boards are sensitive to static and mains voltage.

  • Power reset: Unplug the machine for at least 10 minutes, then plug back in and restart. Sometimes AL10 clears after a full power-down.
  • Check display connections: Remove the front panel or top cover to access the display PCB. Reseat any ribbon cables or multi-pin connectors between the display and main board.
  • Inspect for moisture: Look for signs of water ingress or steam condensation on the display and control boards. Dry gently and correct any leaks from the group or steam wand.
  • Firmware / configuration: Some Lelit models allow firmware updates via service tools. If AL10 appeared after a failed update, a reflash by an authorized service center may be required.
  • Board replacement: If connections are sound and AL10 persists, the display board or main control board may need replacement. This is typically a technician-level repair.
