Capresso C3000 Electronics Damage? What to do? We lost power during a lightning hit to the local power feed and when power was restored the machine produced a loud electrical pop from the rear and it tripped the GFCI and also the circuit breaker to the line. I unplugged the unit and (wishful thinking) tried another circuit with the same results. Question is, what do I do now? I can open the rear panel and have a look at the power board and try to determine what got fried or I can return it to Capresso for repair. I am concerned that whatever is producing the loud electrical pop sound may have caused irreparable damage to the sensitive electronics. Or, maybe it is something sacrificial to protect the electronics? Any words of wisdom? In your experience should I just replace the unit with a new model? It's 12 years old and I love this super automatic machine and have repaired it several times. A replacement unit (Z9) is a couple of grand at Capresso's swap price.

You should probably run a cleaning cycle with a cleaning tablet (the one you drop into the ground coffee shoot, not a decalcifying tab).
This will clean out all the insides where coffee particles and oil can accumulate.
The machine will ask you to run a cleaning cycle after a certain number of cups brewed. But you can also manually start it.
(this is copied from the manual)
You can run a tablet cleaning cycle at anytime even if
the machine does not prompt you,
• READY. Push and hold the Rinse button until display shows
RINSE. The Dial illuminates.
• Turn the Dial until display shows CLEANING. Push the Dial.
Display shows EMPTY DRAWER.
(Follow the rest of instructions for regular cleaning cycle)

The only sources I have been able to find are in Europe. They do not always wish to ship to the US however. In the US the dealers always want the repair, but seldome wish to sell parts outright. Try this website for parts.

There are to oval screws on the backpanel. After removing the panel, unscrew the powerboard and check the flowmeter behind it

We have the S8 here at our office. Ran the cleaning cycle and "Clean Now" message was still on and beeping afterwards. Read the Feb 28 comment and carefully cleaned everything that had grounds stuck to it. Ran the cycle again and it worked. Thanks all.
