Franke Flair coffee machine getting blocked message on screen I rang the seller and he says it's blocked for public safety? How do I unblock this as he says he does not know?

SOURCE: Franke coffee system, always same error message ''fill water tank''

What you would have to do is take the side panel off to get at the solenoid. It is probably sticking closed and not letting the water fill into the boiler.

SOURCE: our franke flair coffee machine keeps saying

this is usually due to the overtemp device activated on one of the thermoblocks, an engineer will be required to replace this item,

SOURCE: How to remove the lid on a franke flair coffee machine

If you are refering to the main cover! firstly the hoppers have to be removed. then the metal plate on the top(cup warmer) secured with 4 x t15 torx screws. once the plate is removed the main cover is secured with 4 oval headed screws 2 of them located under the plate just removed. the other 2 are located under the adjustment rings for the grinders. the main cover then can be removed. there are 2 electrical connection plugs that have to be disconnected .

Testimonial: "Thank you very much will try your advice.one last question what tools do I need to remove the oval screws ?"
