We have BC0320T and have it turned on, coffee in filter and water in dispenser. Nothing is coming out, warming plate is not hot
Hi Rob:
Chances are pretty good that there is a broken electrical wire or non functioning switch inside the unit.
If you have a continuity meter you might try (with the unit unplugged) to dismantle the unit and check.
The rule is:
It's already broke, so if you can't fix it you're no worse off.
Thanks Ted! Will give it A TRY.. TAKING THESE THINGS APART is THE PROBLEM. I will try not to break the cheap plastic parts

SOURCE: Coffee maker shuts off too quickly
It seems this coffeemaker insists on shutting itself off after 4 hours,
or whatever "auto-off" time you've programmed in. The only work-around I've found is to switch it to "Brew" and cycle the power switch off and on every time you pour a cup. That will start a new
4-hour timer cycle. Since the pot's still hot, it will go quickly to the
"brewing done" state and render 5 beeps.

Replacement time. a certain percentage of thse have this problem. There is a small, non-replaceable tube in the inside toward the bottom that has become melted/damaged.
SOURCE: coffee maker won't brew
This one has two AUTO dial settings - AUTO-ON and AUTO-OFF. AUTO-OFF merely keeps the hot plate warm for a fixed period of time. AUTO-ON is the one that allows your coffeemaker to go off at the pre-programmed time in the morning.
If it is set to AUTO-ON, but is not brewing at the set time, unplug the machine for longer than 20 minutes. Then plug it back in, reset the clock, reset the prog time for a time that is just a few minutes into the future, and then test the auto-on feature.
If it stil ldoes not brew, just turn the machine to brew and press on. If it brews a pot, then your problem is electrical. If it doesn't brew a pot on the regular brew setting, then you either have: A) Calcium buildup/clog, or B) a hose leak (or worse).
To rule out the calcium buildup possibility, let half a caraffe worth of vinegar sit in the water reservoir for about an hour. After the hour, turn it to brew and press on, and brew the vinegar just as if it were coffee. If the vinegar goes through, your problem is solved.
Otherwise, call Cuisinart and find out if you are still in-warranty. Thep roduct has a 3-year warranty.
Good luck!
