Posted Sun May 27, 2012, 4:36am Subject: problem with my Probe Boiler
Hello,
I have a Faema machine for 6 years (EURO2000). No dramatic problem since I purchase it.
I have an issue with filling water into the boiler. This is the diagnostics checks I've made:
When water level drops - pump will not start
when taking out the wire connecting the Giemme brain to the Probe - the pump will not start
When brewing coffee - pump starts and I'm able to brew coffee when boiler has water in it (=? pump is working fine)
This is interesting: When brewing coffee and the wire to the Probe is not connected (took it out) - pump starts *and* also fill water into the boiler (when closing brewing - pump continues until re-wire the Probe)
Now - each time I'm brewing the boiler fills upon needed. The trigger is always the brewing. No autofill based on probing....
I do not understand why the machine will not trigger the pump to fill water when the wire to the Probe is disconnected. Why opening the brewing will trigger the machine also to fill water to the boiler.
I'm lost here. Will be happy for any direction to fix the problem.
