While browsing the forums I came across a few threads regarding aroma rice cookers that wont power on. They are mostly dead, no light, no heat, etc. The most common cause is the fuse have blown. The solution is to open up the unit and replace the fuse. If the cooker is otherwise functioning well...

See some of the posts about Instant Pot lid not closing properly. Most of the time it's the sealing ring that's out of place. If you put the lid down and the sealing ring is even slight out of place, the lid wont seat properly. The fix for this is to remove the sealing ring, clean it and put it...

Found these troubleshooting notes for an Instant Pot. People tends to lump two completely differently problems together under the "buttons not working" issue. Thought I'd bring it up for discussions since it comes up so often. If ALL the buttons on the IP are unresponsive, it's the main PCB or...

Seeing as how a few peoples has asked about this same problem I figured I'd share what I've come across. The first thing to try is simply the power button. Even if it seems like an obvious first question the power button could easy have failed. If the power button works, then it's likely a fuse...

Saw a few individuals asking about Crockpot issues with the pots stopping heating. Usually the heating band is the issue. Thought I’d bring this up for discussion as this seems to be the topic of most discussions regarding kitchen appliances instead of the much more common coffee makers and...

Several folks has asked about the Kitchen Mama electric can openers acting up lately. Thought I'd start a thread on the subject since I see it as relatively common. The troubleshooting is fairly short but I'm interested to see if anyone else went deeper into the troubleshooting than just a...

A few peoples has posted in the last few days regarding Bear cookers that has gone dead completely, with no lights, no response from the unit when you operate it, and none of the indicators on the cooker display any information. The most common reason for this is a blown fuse within the cooker...

More peoples experiencing steamboat and hot pot cooker issues where they just will not turn on? In most cases, this is usualy on the controller side of the cooker, not the base that heat the pot. If you take the cooker apart, you’ll mostly find just the heating element down in the pot. The fuse...

Just browsing an internet looking for information on how people gets into the bottom of these little mini Crockpots. From what I am finding online, the mini crockpots use what appear to be some kind of special rivet on the base to secure the cover. There is no information about pliers on the...

Curious if anyone here has cracked one of these Kitchen Mama can openers open for a repair. These tend to be sealed looking units, but not realy all that sealed once you find the right order for opening them up. The way in is to first remove the battery cover, then use a small screwdriver to pop...

Looking up common cause of milk froth machines failing. Found a few online. Seems like three common cause for DeLonghi machines specificaly. First is a steam leak in the system. If the machine are losing steam, the boiler cannot build up the necessary pressure to create steam. Second is the...

Another issue I’ve seen come up several times in the different threads regarding DeLonghi machine is the issue of the infuser getting stuck in the machine.

Saw this list of common reasons for which a DeLonghi coffee machine stop brewing (when the machine is functioning otherwise). The six reasons that are commonly listed is beans in the hopper, the grinder itself, the infuser, the flow meter, the water pump, and the infuser motor. The bean level...

Saw someone asking about this in another thread so thought it was worth its own discussion since there's so much talk about the Kitchen Mamas openers but hardly anyone talk about the battery side of things. The process is honestly the simplest there is. You pop off the battery cover and insert 4...

See a writeup on how to fix the grinder on DeLonghi machines when it stop spinning. Thought it would of worth getting opinions from others who have done this. Take the machine apart and find an orange rubber ring on the grinder. Remove the ring and the white bracket that hold the grinder. Remove...

See some posts about DeLonghi machines dying out of nowhere. First thing people usually checks is the machine for power issues. For the Magnifica S Smart models, the fuse and PCB is located above the water tank. To access them, remove the covers from the machine. The easiest way to test for...

This is a common problems, inactivity cause the DeLonghi machine to stop pumping water. Simply turning the machine on and off a few times will resolve this problem. It sound dumb but works every time before anyone has to touch a thing. If still not working the usual suspect are the water tank...

Looking through some notes on the Ryobi 18V pack pinout, I figured I'd toss this out for discussion as it come up in relation to the ryobi 18v packs alot. As with most 18v packs you have the usual suspects: minus for negative, plus for positive. T1 is the thermistor that the charger and the tool...

The Bosch 18V pinout is one of those things that's kinda scattered around the forums so I put it all in one place for you all to see if this is accurate or not. The obvious ones are minus, plus, tool, charger pin for the tool to identify the battery, NTC for temperature indication so that the...
