Hi there, I just replaced my Silvia boiler and I was wondering if anyone could post a picture of what the wiring is supposed to look like. I didn't take a picture before I started thanks, Richard

Thank you for all of your replies. -Richard

It's a FLUKE 189. I was reading another article and it says that if my meter reads OL then my heating element is bad. How easy is it to replace a boiler in the Silvia?

I'm not getting any resistance on any of the thermostats. Whenever I test the heating element the display on my multimeter just reads OL. Does this mean overload? My friend didn't provide the instruction manual so I have no idea what this means

Thanks a lot!!!

I acquired a voltmeter this afternoon and I'm wondering if anyone has any advice on what to check for the following problem: I turn on the power switch and nothing heats. The safety thermostat hasn't been tripped. Will the voltmeter help me determine whether the thermostats are working or not? I hop...

Thank you Jim

I've had my silvia for about two years now. I woke up this morning and went to brew my shots...when i tried to steam my milk nothing but water would come out of the steam wand. Is this a thermostat problem? The group is also not getting as hot as it needs to. The water coming out is warm.

Usually only 1 double per day....I've cut down a whole lot

Who is this guy? I guess I can give these things a try, but it's all just the opposite of what everything thinks is 'right'....has anyone tried these techniques yet? -Richard
