Jura Capresso Answered Questions & Fixed Issues

Hello, what I have found is the most common cause of water leaking out of the bottom of the capresso team coffee maker is a leaking silicone hose that runs to the boiler (See the photo below with the split in the hose). The replacement silicone hose needs to be safe for beverage dispensing, food & dairy processing, taste and odor-free, with a temperature range of -75? to 350? F. All you need is a sharp pick, a phillips screwdriver, and a pair of needle nose pliers. Remove the four rubber pads on the bottom using the pick. Use the screwdriver to remove the six screws holding the bottom plate on. Remove and replace "BOTH" hoses using the needlenose pliers to pinch the hose clamps. Better to play it safe while you have it apart. If one is bad the other is likely not far behind. I hope this helps.

Hi Mark,

I can not this machine mark, but on other machines it can hang in system and then we have to start the programme again.
Sorry i not can give you a clear solution on this case:-(

Best regards

My guess would be that your water tank float is trapped. The remidy would be to descale the watertank itself. If you use the Calris filter cartridge. remove it before descaling with a mild commercially available descaler. Don't forget to rinse thorrowly afterwards and reinsert the filter. Always use cold water to fill the watertank. Hope this helps

It is probably because the brewing unit has not stopped in the correct at rest position. I'm not familiar with your brand but sometimes if you remove the bin from the tray you can slip the bare tray back in under the brewing unit enough to activate the machine so it can reset itself.

The brew unit is damaged and needs to be repaired.

Sounds lie the brew unit need to be repaired.

Just a guess here but if you are not using soft water you may have a hard water scale coating on the sensor. The sensor is preventing the heating element from powering up because it thinks there is no water. Try filling the machine with vinegar for several hours (no more than overnight) This will dissolve hard water deposits and hopefully clear the sensor. (the sensor should be a simple continuity contact. If you can look inside and see a metal button and it is fouled clean it off.)

Error 4 is in Plain text a Temperature measurement error in steam cycle (circuit) Causes / Remedy: Sorted in order of likeliness !!! 1) Thermal sensor is defective. Determine the resistance value at 20 degrees C to be about 12kOhm. - Replace thermal sensor if not. OR 2) Cable broken to the thermal sensor or oxidized contacts. - Replace / repair the cable. OR 3) Logic board defective - replace electronics / replace EEPROM. If you want to do the job yourself. Parts for repair solutions above are 1) Replacement Thermal Sensor with cable GBP 19.99 plus postage 2) if you can fix broken wire or oxidized contact no need for parts 3) logic board GBP 198.99 plus postage (there might be the possibility to have EEPROM on the board replaced at a fraction of the price. Defective board must be sent in first. It also is possible to sent in the machine for repair.

The rinse bu-ton is located on top right of the machine. just beside the menu bu-ton.

Try it since it have help some other with same problem.

It could be several soutions to this problem. First of all, try to clean the sieve in the brew unit, it may be clogged. Take out the tray, in between the 2 brown "lips" inside you can put your finger up and clean out all the old coffeegrounds stuck up there. Then put everything back in place and run a Rinse machine operation.

If this is not helping, listen out when you start up the machine; You should hear that the valve is turning 3 times, if it doesn`t it can be a problem with this valve not opening in right position. Then all the water would go out in the tray, and not into the brew unit. That maybe can be solved by changing this Multi ceramic valve or the Main Electronic board. Then it`s a job for a sertified Jura technician.

Unfortunately the error message 5 indicates that the thermal block and/or thermal sensor and possibly a control board need to be tested, and likely one or more, possibly all, replaced. My recommendation is to send it to Capresso ask what it will cost first. M

Have you tried completely powering it down, as far as unplugging it from the wall? Sorry if that's stating the obvious, but I'm a computer guy and 9 times out of 10, a 'reboot' fixes the problem.

Try running distilled white vinegar through it.

Fill the water tank with vinegar to dissolve the chalk and make the swimmer swim again. It is stuck! You can help and poke the swimmer with a knife from the side.

Hold the button in, until it says "Enough?" then release.. When you have the right amount, push the button again.

The question is, how to open the machine? I found elsewhere one should unscrew the back logo, but it is slippery. Seems like a special tool would be needed, but I did not find it.
