    Press the On/Off Button to reset the

    Coffee Maker. If the error code

    reappears, there is a problem with the

    Coffee Maker electronics. Call KitchenAid.

An ERR 2 may be cleared by a simple reset of the coffee maker. This means unplugging the unit and plugging it back in. When powered back on, select a brew function to see if the error reappears. This may take a few moments.

If it does, ERR 2 indicates an internal error with the computer of the warming plate. This may be covered under Kitchenaid's 1 Year Hassle Free Warranty. I would advise you to call Kitchenaid Customer Service to see what options are available to you. Repair is not recommended, as it is not cost effective for the company or the consumer.

Their toll-free telephone number is 1-800-541-6390.

Is this a Kitchen Aid? Is it possible to buy this circuit board from somewhere?

This is a kitchen aid. BUT!!!! it is an international model that was sold in countries with 220 volts. Look underneath the mixer for a white tag it should have a model number and a serial number, if you can get us those numbers then we can help with the parts. Hope this helps.

Any problems w/ Kitchenaid coffee maker 511?

Nothing but problems! Spills,messes caused from poor engineering/design Finally a err2 message means the element is probably bad. Called kitchenaid and because ir is just beyond warranty repair they did offer a discount on a new one. I said No Thanks,I would not own another one.

Error 2-Unit will not heat or brew. Stopped in middle of brewing cycle and flashed error 3 code. After unplugging unie and plugging back in an error 2 remains.

Error message 2 is a result of the water heating element burning out. The element is replaceable, if you can find a vendor who sells the element assembly. Price of a new element may be more that a new pot though, if you're lucky enough to find a parts vendor that sells one.

Error 2

The manual that came with my coffee maker (same Kitchen Aide & same ERR2) says if pushing the on/off button a few times to reset it doesn't fix it, it's probably an electrical problem. It comes wirh only a 1 year warranty (mine's about 2 years old). If your maker is less than 1 year old you can call 1-800-541-6390 (M-F 8am-8pm, Sat 10am-5pm Eastern time) for a replacement. Otherwise, you just have to get a new coffee maker. I found no instructions to send it in to get it repaired.

Err2 msg question

Wow! When I googled "KitchenAid Coffee makers" I didn't anticipate finding an actual link to err2 codes. Here's obviously a universally defunct product - you know... a lemon! Bajillions of people would not be blasting KitchenAid all over the internet for their "one year receipt or we'll give you a coupon towards the purchase of yet another lemon" offer! This is a joke! I just hung up from visiting with 3 customer service reps. Two from KitchenAid, and one from Whirlpool. Although the men were considerably nicer about saying nothing than the woman "supervisor" was... being nice and being smart proved themselves out to be two entirely different things. Apparently this is a company that would rather leave infuriated customers everywhere empty handed and without a receipt... for a faulty product they'd purchased or been gifted with, than to simply do the right thing when they discover they've produced an inferior product. Customer service at its finest! I love the listed "solutions" to this run-away coffee maker problem! Call the nice people and IF you can dig out a receipt or make one up or WHATEVER... and IF it's within one year... they can kindly offer a viable solution. Replacement with the SAME coffee maker! Buying one lemon is one thing. Buying a second lemon just because it's gonna cost $90 instead of $130 is... a really inept suggestion for KitchenAid/ Whirlpool to make! Wonder if Whirlpool or KitchenAid have ever heard of that word: "RECALL" --- when enough people are unhappy, one would think a company with any concern for customers would have responded long before now. It's shocking to see how long the complaining has been going on. Great job KitchenAid! Way to do absolutely nothing... right!
