Electronic part is not working

Put water , close cap , insert coffe sac , twist , press button wait 5 minutes , put steam in cup with milk ,, add coffe , sugar to taste .

make sure your steam button is completely turned off

When you twist the steam knob all the way, it actuates an electrical switch. The first part of the turn just opens a mechanical valve to allow the steam or water to come out but doesn't turn on the heater nor does it start the pump. You need to turn it far enough to trip the electric switch that starts the heat and the pump.

If it still isn't working, then perhaps the switch was knocked loose when it was taken on the plane.

Hi, the problem with your machine is with the grinder motor (not working).As soon as you press the coffee the CPU senses the motor is out of circuit and the lights start flashing alternately.
You can test it by doing this. Press and hold the steam button and switch on the machine, you will see the lights going around in anticlockwise direction. Release the button then turn the dial to left (Min) and press the steam button the grinder should work. The dial on the right (Max) the brew group will come up..and half way it will come back to normal position. Press the coffee button in that position will work the pump. Servicecenter can fix this if the machine is less than 2 year old FOC.

Check the thermostat on the steam boiler, that could have tripped, or the element on there could be damaged.

You need to contact Delonghi and order a part. This is the steam/water outlet assembly. This part includes an electronic solenoid which controls the water and steam output. I have had this problem 3 times. You may find the steam/ water is very loose when you try to wobble it sideways. This is the indication as to what is the problem, (as mentioned above).

Well on a Aroma I allways test to see if its just not air in the machine.

Turn on the machine.

press the coffe button.

Then press the steamer button ( dont turn off the coffe button.)

Do it come out hot water from the steam nossle then after a while?

Then turn of the steam button, if the filter is not blocked there should now come water from the coffe outlet.

Hi,

Try to open the steam knob and turn on the button to make coffee, when the water flow out off the steam pipe, close the knob and the button.

Hi Alex,

Try to prime the machine.

If the machine also did not work again, you have blown an internal fuse or the boiler heater has failed. If lots of steam came from inside the machine when it went bang, you have probably blown a hose, or a safety valve blew off because the heater failed to regulate temperature. Good luck, Saeco are expensive people!
