Safety Warning
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
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before opening the housing.
Check visibility:
- Shine a flashlight at an angle on the display; if you can faintly see numbers, the backlight has failed.
Internal inspection (advanced):
- Access the display module and check its connector to the control board.
- Reseat the connector and test.
If the display remains dim or blank but brewing works, you can continue using the machine by memory, or replace the display/control board assembly for full functionality.
