Possible Causes
Warped or damaged tank guides, Debris in tank seating area, Broken latch or alignment tabs, Aftermarket tank not matching original design
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn off and unplug before forcing any parts.
Steps:
- Inspect tank and base: Look for broken plastic guides, bent tabs, or foreign objects in the tank recess.
- Clean seating area: Remove debris and wipe the tank recess and contact surfaces.
- Check tank shape: Ensure the tank is not warped from heat or impact. A warped tank may not engage the water valve or switches correctly.
- Align carefully: Insert the tank straight down, aligning any arrows or guides. Do not force; if resistance is high, recheck alignment.
- Replace damaged tank: If the tank is cracked or warped, replace it with an original BONECO water tank for your model.
