Hi,
Looking for help with my machine. As the boiler was heating up there was a pop and (my wife saw) a puff of smoke!
I immediately shut it down and took the cover off. Can't find any signs of electrical fire.
Orange light comes on. PID comes on but stays at .65 F.
Red light on...

Still beating my head against the two group Riviera. Got most of it sorted, but still have persistent leaking once it starts to come up to pressure. What is odd is that the leaking usually stops once it's up to pressure.

So far I've disassembled both groups about eight times....

I was away for a week and had turned my LMLM off. When I came back and turned it on, it made a loud clicking noise as the water LED turned on and off. The machine was working well before I left, and the water tank is full.

My Faema Faemina's safety valve has started making strange noise when it heats up. In the past, it would gurgle, hiss, then settle into a quiet state of being. Now, the safety valve makes this low, throaty growl that rarely ends. When it does stop, it comes back after 30-60...

I believe first issue was a continuous running pump that I rectified with a new GICAR NRL30/1E-2C/F...

I just yanked the group head mushroom on my 2015 Profitec Pro 700 and the results are below. What am I looking at? How bad is it?

Hello, I'm in a really weird situation. I've had a Silvia v3 for ~7 years that has worked great. About 5 years ago I installed a PID. It's model # is SYL-1512BW-F. Again it's worked great up until tonight.

All I did was I went into the settings of the PID and changed the...

Hi all -
I have an Isomac Millenium that's having the occasional problem with heating. A little while back it wouldn't heat, and so I ran diagnostics inside and ended up with a bad thermal fuse, so I replaced and it worked fine. Then more recently, the heating element failed,...
