One problem could be the thermal fuse. The hard part was taking the darned thing apart. I couldn't find the replacement part, but I did find an alternate replacement. The NTE8020 is a good substitute. I just ordered one from Mouser for $6.25.
After installation and first test all went well. The next morning however had revealed it died again.
Round two.
So by this time I'm confident the transformer is getting warm, though 130F isn't really hot for a transformer (which is the limit of the thermal fuse). So instead of replacing the fuse again with a higher value, I decided to simply install a switch in place if the thermal fuse. I only turn on the unit to make my coffee/tea so there's no time for the transformer to get too hot. It has been running great for 3 months now.
Hi,
The problem is often that the machine develops a leak in the hose that is rightover the transformer...the water drips onto the transformer and kills that...then you have no power to run the machine.
Here is a tip that I wrote about this problem...
