Possible Causes

Defective load cell under base, Damaged or pinched scale wiring harness, Loose scale connector on PCB, Calibration data corruption on main board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure the Thermomix is on a stable, level surface and unplug it before moving.

  • Check placement: Place the unit on a hard, flat, vibration-free surface. Avoid soft mats or uneven countertops that can twist the base.
  • Remove external pressure: Make sure nothing is touching or leaning on the machine (cables, walls, other appliances) that could affect the scale.
  • Recalibrate (if supported): Some models allow a scale reset via the settings menu. Follow the official procedure to reset or calibrate the scale.
  • Inspect base (advanced): With the unit unplugged, remove the bottom cover and check that the load cell and its mounting screws are secure and that the wiring is intact.
  • Service requirement: If C9 persists, the load cell or main PCB scale circuit is likely defective and must be replaced by a technician.
