There are (I think) three possibilities:
1. There is a fuse inside the unit.
2. The water heating element has a thermal fuse that has failed as a result of overheating (no water in the reservoir at some point)
3. The control panel has failed or the low-voltage power supply that powers the control panel has failed.

My guess would be #2. This is a readily available part (electronic supply stores) but not easy to replace (unit disassembly can be quite challenging). If you're handy, give it a try. The thermal fuse will be wired directly across the terminals of the water heating element. It will have very low resistance (~1 ohm) if it is good.

Humming sound, turned off

Contact Kitchen Aid and find out who is their Authorised Service Agent closest to you. Take it there and get it checked, it may be nothing but safer to have it properly inspected. Unplug it when not being used until it has been looked at.

Mr coffee model gbx23 stopped working, it won't turn on.

It might be a problem with your outlet, and not the coffee maker. Your kitchen outlets should be GFCI protected. There is supposed to be a sticker on all outlets that are protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter, but sometimes they are left off. Look for an outlet in the kitchen that has a rest button between the outlets. You can also take the coffee maker to a known working outlet, or bring something that you know works to the coffee maker outlet, to see if it is the outlet that is not working or if the coffee maker is still not working at a good outlet. If the outlet isn't working, try others in the kitchen to see if they are. If they are not, and you didn't locate a reset button on one of them, then check the breaker box for a tripped breaker.

Coffee makers do have at least 2 safety switches inside them, but they are only to keep them from overheating and catching fire. If one of the switches did go bad it is possible that it might shut down the entire machine. If that is the case, then it's time for a new coffee maker, as the safety switches are not servicable.

Kitchenaid 600 pro

After many years dealing with Kitchen Aid mixers I purchased a pro 600 for my wife as an early Xmas gift. After just a few usages it started making a clunking noise in the gear housing. I removed the housing and discovered the casting is of very poor tolerances and the main drive assembly was lifting from the torque of the motor and causing the gear assembly to lift out of the casting and skipping on the worm gear. I am sure it is going to happen to many more of these units as the casting area that holds the bearing in is to large obviously an overdue mold in the casting process. Time for a recall Kitchen Aid.

I have a Keurig B60 and never had a problem but twice. You go to cut on and there is no power. I would like to know how to repair or is there a reset button. I love the Keurig please help Thank You

Make sure there is power to the outlet being used. Most of the time that is all it is. Sometimes there is a GFCI outlet attached to kitchen outlets that will trip shuting off the power to the other outlets. Find it ( usually shaped different than the other outlets ) press the "Reset" button on the outlet, this may turn the power on to the outlet.
If that doesn't turn the power on to the coffee outlet check the breaker in the house panel to see if it has tripped, if it has move the breaker switch to the "Off" position then back to the "On" position this may work. If not and the power is still off to the outlet you will need a qualified person to correct it. As for the maker unless you have the equipment to repair the maker you may just have to buy a new one or again take it to a qualified repair shop, no rest button.....sorry.

Cracked jug

Proline parts are very difficut to find and they were on sale at Comet.co.uk you could try their customer services but given that Proline are a budget make their spares are hard to find. I know since I had a Proline coffee maker and had to buy another one off EBay when my jug smashed.

Bottom heater quit working

THe bottom usually is screwed onto the unit. I have never taken the kitchen aide apart. If your heat5er is not working for the coffee pot, it is probably the thermo wswitch. A $5 part if you can get to it! Best of luck
