Hi, W/D here.
Try something else in the outlet. Most kitchens have ground fault outlet circuits, so you may have a tripped outlet breaker. These type of circuits can come from the panel through a ground fault circuit breaker, or they can go to the first outlet on a run of outlets. If the first outlet is ground fault protected, the others on that same run are protected as well. If another device will work in your coffeemaker outlet, the coffeemaker is probably dead. If another device will not work in the outlet, and your coffeemaker will work in a known, good outlet, you'll need to look at all of the outlets in your kitchen and bathrooms for an outlet with a "test" and a "reset" button on it. If your outlet is on that circuit, you will need to push the reset button to restore power to your coffeemaker's outlet.
Best regards, --W/D--

Testimonial: "thanks, sounds like my favorite coffee maker is dead.Due to the storm and sever lighting."

My de'longhi magnifica coffee maker trips the

Yes it is possible, but here is what you have to do first, try a different outlet, that is not on same circuit , another part of house, even garage. If it still trips breaker, then more than likely it's a machine problem that is causing this. If it doesn't trip, then you can put it back where it was, but then have to maybe move other items on that circuit else where if your fond on that spot for the machine. Espresso machine have a huge surge electric demand when on heat mode. Like all kitchens they have several out let's on same circuit , if you still want it in same area, then have to move other stuff to other outlets that don't share circuit. And no you don't want to up circuit breaker to larger breaker as wires might not be rated to handle larger breaker. Let me know if my idea works, thanks mike from fixya

My mr coffee Iced tea maker has been working great for a year. Tonight it tripped a ground fault breaker, and only started a tea cycle. I reset the breaker and the machine squirted once then started to...

we had one like this and we suspect a power surge damaged it. it worked fine one night, but we had a lightning storm that night and we think lightning hit out power pole and fried several of our appliances. the tea maker would come on but like you described it seems to forget what its doing. consider the possibility that a power surge got it (doesn't have to be lightning, several things can cause a surge)

My neighbor?s house was hit by lightning. My Keurig machine was plugged in and now won?t work at all. Is there a fuse/breaker/reset button?

..um... there might be a Movister a metal oxide Resister that may have taken the hit...but there is a electrical panel in the unit. the b-70's electrical unit is on the right side lower area... covered by the black shroud.
no breaker... that's for sure...
It could be as simple as a circuit board trace blew... acting as the fuse when the Movister took the jolt of the lighting hit... so it may be fixable.
just the realitty of opening up the unit... and your willingness to open it and look...

you can re-submit on how to open the unit...
I have an answer on how to open up a B-70... should be similar

There is no power to the unit, the breaker is on, there is power to the plug, but the unit does not work. The clock is also not on

the thermal fuse has blown.
be careful after replacing it because the reason it blew is probably because the unit overheated which means the thermal switch failed (stayed closed)

La Spaziale

you should search for compatable termal fuses, it is not obligatory to buy them from the producers shop. look at fuse's data and name google it. you will find them near you in some electronic shop where you dont expect.
