How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the coffee maker and allow it to cool completely. Do not operate with a known sensor fault.
- Dry the unit: If the machine was recently exposed to heavy steam or splashing, let it sit unplugged in a warm, dry room for 24 hours to allow internal moisture to evaporate.
- Power reset: After drying, plug the unit back in and check if the error clears.
- Avoid further exposure: Do not place the coffee maker directly under cabinets where steam can condense into the electronics.
- Professional diagnosis: If the SENSOR error persists, internal testing of the NTC probes and wiring is required. This should be done by a qualified technician with access to OXO service documentation.
