Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the coffee maker before any inspection. If you are not comfortable working with mains voltage, contact a technician.

Steps:

  • Check outlet: Test the wall socket with another appliance to confirm it has power.
  • Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, kinks, or burn marks. If damaged, the cord must be replaced; do not tape over defects.
  • Test power switch: Ensure the main power switch (if present) is firmly in the ON position. Some Tefal models have a rocker switch at the side or rear.
  • Access internal fuse (advanced): Remove the housing and locate the fuse on the main PCB or near the power entry. If blown, investigate for short circuits before replacing with the exact same rating.
  • Board inspection: Look for burnt components or tracks on the PCB. If present, the board should be replaced rather than repaired at home.
