Hi, my Saeco Aroma 1st generation won't turn on anymore. I opened it up but can't find the fuse nor thermostat to verify, there is no sign of burn or open wire. Would you help me to locate them or it doesn't have them in the old model?

Exploded diagram at the link below. Parts are in Italian but these can easily be translated on the web. ( translate.google.co.uk )

Their should be an internal fuse located close to where the mains flex enters the unit.

If their doesn't appear to be one then the first item to check would be the main switch (Item 26 on Page 1).

You'll need either a multimeter to check that with the mains on, and the switch in the on position you're getting a supply to the secondary side of the switch (be very careful if you do this as working with live exposed equipment can be dangerous). Your other option is to use a continuity checker and with the mains off and unplugged, place the continuity checker across the switch and move the switch to the on position. If the switch is OK then the continuity checker should either buzz or flash depending on what tyre you're using.

If this fails or you require any further guidance then just ask.

I have a saeco aroma coffee machine that will not turn on.. This machine has only two thermostats and no reset button visible. Could there be one inside the boiler or should I keep looking?

The Saeco Brand is under the Philips umbrella of companies. The Aroma line is not considered user serviceable beyond descaling and cleaning. However, most devices that heat water tend to have a fusible link somewhere in the power circuit. If you're already poking around inside, trace the power connection (obviously with the machine unplugged) through to the heating elements, sensors, etc. You might find a small "bit" that looks scorched or burnt.
Otherwise, it might be good to contact Saeco and see if there's an authorized repair center near you. The Aroma is definitely pricey enough not to just dump and replace like an old Mr. Coffee.

Hello. I have a Saeco Magic Cappuccino Plus machine, which should be similar to the Saeco Magic Cappuccino machine that was occasionally discussed on FixYa. My machine was working OK until yesterday. I hit...

Hi
Yes. The thermal fuse is incased in a browish/red cover and is held on to the boiler by a clamp that holds the thermostats on. Slide the fuse out from the clamp and slide the cover off the thermal fuse. Test with a ohms meter. If its bad you should get no reading. You can get a new 182c thermal fuse from Radio Shack, electronics store, or appliance store. If no luck there online espresso machine retailers like Seattle Coffee Gear, Whole-Latte-Love, 1st-Line should be able to help you. Do not try to solder the new fuse in. It has to be crimpwed on or it will blow again.

My 3-year old Saeco Aroma blew the mains circuit when I switched it on this morning. I tried it on other circuits but it did the same. Is it worth the shipping and repair costs? Thanks, Aodan

Check the other postings on the topic of "blowing a breaker". Appears to be a heating element or boiler short. They don't recommend you fix yourself.
Mine is 13 - 14 months old and did the same thing two weeks ago. The words, "boat anchor", come to mind. Saeco won't honor it, and the online retailer wants $100.00 to receive it and supply parts - labor and all shipping is on me. I paid $235 for the unit, so you do the math as to whether its worth it. I'd say no.

The steam light on my Saeco Aroma does not turn on (and no steam comes out), even after the brew light turns on and I press the steam button. How can I get my steam to work?

HI
It is probably your steam thermostat that needs to be replaced. There are 2 thermostats. The Brew and steam. If one of them fail it won't heat the boiler for that mode. They are easy to replace.

My Saeco Aroma does not turn on. The on/off button clicks to the on position and stays there but there is no light, no heat and no motor sound.

Hi
There is a fuse on top of the boiler. If it blows you loose power. Its held on by a clamp and has a cloth of plastic covering. You can check it with an ohms meter. If you get no reading its bad. UNPLUG FIRST!

Steam valve stripped. The seam valve does not shut off but remains in open position. Simply spins to left when attempt to turm ofs. Saeco Aroma.

Hi
If the valve is stripped then there is damage to the manifold too. You need to replace both, and when you reassemble the valve into the manifold lubricate the valve threads and it will prevent this.
