    Same problem and I need the sealing ring that the water level indicator goes through. Its made of silicone.

    I have tried a 2 dealers in Ottawa Ont Canada and they tell me to toss the unit and buy new!. Paid $70.00 2 years ago.

    Our lid won't stay closed and nothing appeared to be wrong. So I took the handle mechanism apart and discovered the button extension 'thingy' was broken inside. Is there a replacement part?

    Ive just noticed that there is a plastic piece loose in my pyramid accent kettle. Not sure where it fits?

    The button on the lid does not always release the lid catch. Is it possible to remove the lid by unscrewing the two screws under the lid, and somehow clean the mechanism inside?

I went to the hardware store and found a black plastic knob, added washer and nut inside--voila! Fixed for about $5.

Cushion lid release button sticks and the lid does not close

Over time the heat can causes the plastic parts to swell until the button that releases the lid gets stuck. The button can be easily & carefully pried completely out of the hole with a knife **note the orientation of the button and spring for replacement. Clean the button & hole but expect the button to still stick when re-inserted back into the kettle. Take the button back out and if you take a knife and gently carve/scrape away some of the plastic round the inside of the rim of the 'hole' and around the edge of the plastic button, you can remove enough of the plastic so that the button now moves easily back and forth in the hole releasing the lid. Good luck.

Kettle does not automatically shut off even when water is at above minimum level and boiling

I think that standards require an auto-shutoff on electric pots to keep the component from softening down. You could override the shutoff by either taping over the switch or utilizing an elastic band. You can check deep details on electric kettle review sites.

Siemens porsche kettle om switch problem

Some switches are called momentary and others are the click on and click off type.
It could be a problem with the switch if is is the click on type.
It could be a relay that "seals in" when you press the on off switch to on.
By "seal in" I mean, the kettle is wired so that when the relay coil energizes, it closes a contact when it is electrified and becomes an electric magnet and the energy that was going through the on off button, is now going through the closed contact on the relay.
If you don't here a clicking sound like you used to, it could be a fuse inside inside of the electrical box on or by the kettle.
I don't know by the information, if this is a household small appliance or commercial?
Even if household, it should have the same basic setup.

This may be of some help to you

What About The Kettle?

Despite being metal the kettle is cool touch (a tough special grade plastic interior). A good safety feature is that the kettle will only switch on when the lid is closed, there is a special lid release button. The kettle also has automatic overheat protection. Of course the kettle is cordless and has cord storage in its base. Water quality? Well, it's better if you use filtered water, but with this kettle it is even better - it has a removable stainless steel limescale filter in the spout!
