O-Ring

Remove sides, back, top and front control panel following video on eReplacementparts.com web site. Remove clips where tubes connect to generator and other interior machine parts, remove tube, remove old o-ring, replace with new o-ring, replace clips. Reassemble.

I unplugged the machine and removed the water tank and water tank cover. Then, I unscrewed the two screws on top of the machine holding the main covers in place, and carefully pried the steam knob off. After that, taking the cover off the unit is a little tricky. There's a tab in the back that locks it into place and takes some finesse to not break while trying to take the cover off.

Once it's off however, I located the tube running from the water pump to the heating element, removed the alligator clip holding it in place, and carefully pulled the tube free from the connector. I had to fish the o ring out from the connector with a toothpick, but it was relatively easy. I then slipped the new o ring over the tube, re-inserted the tube very firmly into the connector, locked it in place with the alligator clip, and tested the machine for leaks. Once confident that the leaks were solved, I replaced the cover, steam knob, etc and screwed everything back into place.

Overall a very simple repair, just take your time and make sure to use common sense.

I disassembled the unit to access the leaking tube. I have several of these machines so I was familiar with diagnosing and repairing the problem. The manufacturer has changed the screws to discourage DIY repairs so a bit of determination was needed. That is where the majority of the time was spent. I replaced those factory screws with x/ sheet metal screws. The old O-ring was accessed by removing a retaining pin. The new O-ring was installed and the unit was reassembled. The steam / coffee know is s simple pull of the old and push on the new.

I removed the top of coffee maker. Turn coffee pot on temporarily ( careful not to touch wires). Water was dripping out of one oil ring. I replaced both of them. Coffee pot works like new.
