Mr. Coffee Timer / Programming Fault

Auto-brew (delay brew) does not start at the programmed time.

Possible Causes

Clock not set correctly, AM/PM misconfigured, Delay brew not actually activated, Control board timer circuit fault

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No internal repair is needed for programming issues.

  • Verify clock and program:
    • Set the correct time with HOUR and MINUTE buttons.
    • Program the desired brew time and ensure the DELAY BREW or AUTO indicator is lit.
  • Check power stability:
    • Avoid unplugging the unit after programming; power loss clears settings.

If auto-brew still fails while manual brew works, the timer function on the control board may be defective and require replacement.
