I called & checked online with krups for a replacement boiler cap for a 985 expresso machine. They advised its in 3 pieces, only the cap itself is consumer servicable. I need the pressure valve that screws into the cap. I have the spring & cap. Any way to get this without going to a service center? It's an EZ fix. If I can't get it, I'll throw the machine away and buy another brand.
The part that they describe as the cap is actually the pressure relief valve assy inside the cover. There are 3x F985 models and the cap is available for only 2 of them. You will need to purchase the part from a service centre or similar but you will also need to provide the full longer model number. F9854259 or F9854251 are what you want to see or F9857151 means you bin it.

After I changed piston sealing I get the same error 09. It was caused by missing connection to the thermoblock temperature sensor. In my case both connectors for thermocouple were cracked. They are located directly on the body of thermoblock, below two fuses, covered by rubber housing. After I solder them again on the position error 09 disappeared. Unfortunately it is necessary to open at least front panel of the machine. Moreover I tink that there is also important to save polarity of those two cables.

I had the same problem. The issue was that the machine needed a clean to dissolve Calcium build up from the water. I used a commercial cleaner available at my local supermarket but have since used white vinegar and get just as good results. I just put about a cup of white vinegard in the water haopper and run the machine without the group attatched. I run the steamer wand and then put another cup through with the group attatched . I then rinse a few times with fresh bottled or distilled water.
