Picked up an older Jura Impressa Z5 that trips the GFI when the pump is about to come on.
It's happening either when I press the hot water or the espresso button, so my guess is that the pump is shorting it.

Hello,

Hello everyone
Since I sorted out the Faema Eurostar Ambassador, I am onto my next adventure to rebuild a Isomac Millenium.
Stupid me, I ran the tank dry when I was trying to descale the machine.
When I am tracing the line to try and prime the pump, I found this thing and a...
