DeLonghi BCO264B Espresso Machine Coffee Maker Questions & Answers
Coffe unit has stopped working. Any help will do.
There are thermal fuses on the bottom. You must remove the bottom cover to see them under the heating tray. If the heating does not work the water will not heat and rise (no drip - nada). I posted some pics on my ebay store.

TYPICAL FAILURE OF THIS MACHINE = THERMAL FUSE MALFUNCTION.
WHERE ARE THE THERMAL FUSES: There are 2 thermal fuses under the coffe tray and 1 fuse under the espresso boiler. (YOU WILL HAVE TO REMOVE THE BOTTOM COVER OF THE MACHINE). What this fuse does is regulate the temperature of the heating element so that everything doesn't melt (yep, I tried to bypass the fuse and found out the hard way..testing...testing..). Anyway, replacement for these thermal fuses are sold at RADIO SHACK for about $2.00. (Yep, only $2.00) If you open the bottom cover of the coffee maker and you will see the 2 fuses, they look like resistors. they are covered in a plastic tube to prevent damage. Clip them off I used a small wrench(radio shack) to pry open the small clamps that hold them, replaced them, then reclamped the new fuse back on.
REPLACEMENT FUSES: The thermal fuses have the watts/Amps and temperature stamped on them. There is 1 part that I use and has been working well for over a year ( over a year, yes this machine can last a long time!!).
The part # is Labeled - Raido Shack 270-1321 Thermal Fuse 438°F (226°C) 250VAC 10A (For heating devices like coffee makers and hair dryers). The temperature may vary + - a few degrees° on the label, from what I have seen.
HOW TO TEST THERMAL FUSES: These fuses are not only used for temp control but they also close the curcuit. If the fuse blows then it is open and will not heat. I use my ohmeter (put 1 prong at each end of the fuse) and if it reads open it means that the thermal fuse is bad, it has blown, there is no current running through it. I believe a light meter can check for continuity also and are much cheaper. Test by putting the test leads at each end of the fuse (1 prong at each end).If the light turns on then you are good, getting continuity. If you cannot get no light then it is bad. You can test your light fuse with a simple wire, touch each end and the light should go on, cut the wire in the middle and no light!!easy.
fyi. If your coffee does not get hot enough the fuse may need to be replaced also.
HOW TO READ THE OHMETER.
Know that a reading of OL means "over limit." That means the resistance is off the charts, and you have a break in the circuit. If you got an OL reading for the plug wires, you'd know there was a broken wire that needs replacing. In this case, we got an OL reading because the light switch is in the "OFF" position.

Consider that a low reading, anywhere from 0 to .5, indicates very little to no resistance. This means there's a continuity of current in the circuit. This is the reading you should get Read more: How to Use an Ohmmeter ' eHow.com http://www.ehow.com/how_2282412_use-ohmmeter.html#ixzz0zwXjz6C0
Delonghi Ecam 23.450S heating up please wait
'heating up please wait...' and that's it, suggests a fault with either a sensor or a control board... and in today's market, who could ever guess which?
I'm sorry this is far more philosophical than technical. I really hate to say this. Still, if any half-way modern appliance has given you 15 years' service, what more would you have expected?
Traditionally, you would have taken any faulty gizmo to a local repair expert, who would have fixed it for a charge greatly less than any replacement cost.
Today, it's almost inconceivable that the cost of even diagnosing, let alone fixing any fault would be comparable to the cost of replacing (whatever) with a new one.
The error code close door does not go off even if the service door was closed on DeLonghi Magnifica coffee machine
According to the De'Longhi UK website, the error message "Close Door" could be caused by two issues :
The brewing unit is not installed properly in the unit. You can try turning the unit off, remove and reinstall the brew unit, and then turn the unit back on to see if it reset itself.
The latch on the service door has coffee build up and is restricted from moving freely. Please clean the latch area and make sure the door closes.
If neither of these solutions work, you may need to contact DeLonghi support for further assistance.
We have a De Longhi coffee grinder KG100. The
First you pry the timer knob off and remove hopper, under the machine there a 4 tabs, using a small screwdriver pry those until the casing slides off.
Unscrew the nut holding the timer and take out timer, unplug the terminals, replace or try and repair.

Esam6700 hot water spout and milk frother not working:
Based on the information provided, it is possible that there is an issue with the machine's internal circuitry or wiring. It could also be a problem with the control board or the sensors that detect the presence of the milk jug or hot water spout.
One possible solution is to try resetting the machine to its default settings. To do this, turn off the machine and unplug it from the power source. Wait for a few minutes before plugging it back in and turning it on again. This may help reset any internal settings that could be causing the issue.
If resetting the machine does not work, it may be necessary to have it serviced by a professional technician. They can diagnose and repair any underlying issues with the machine's components.
It is also worth noting that regular maintenance and cleaning of the milk frother and hot water spout can help prevent issues from occurring in the first place. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning and descaling these parts of the machine.
Overall, if the issue persists, it is recommended to contact Delonghi customer support or a certified technician for further assistance.
