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.
The best solution I found to this was to throw this expensive piece of junk in the trash. Thanks for the good advice.Paul
I JUST BOUGHT MY KITCHEN AID A YEAR AGO AND GUESS WHAT? IT STARTED LEAKING COFFEE AND ERR2 OCCURRED. IT IS CHEAPER TO TOSS IT IN THE GARBAGE AND BUY A DIFFERENT BRAND. I LOVE ALL MY OTHER KITCHEN AID APPLIANCES BUT THE COFFEE POTS ****.
After owing this coffee pot for just over a year, we have had the same troubles as the ones listed.It finally died with the ERR2 display. We will never buy another KitchenAid coffee maker again.
Ditto. Being Kitchenaid fans, we actually made this mistake. TWICE. F2. Will never buy another Kitchenaid small appliance. VERY EXPENSIVE MISTAKE. Kitchenaid customer service said "oh, sorry. can't repair. Send it to us. If we can't repair it we'll ship you a new one...for the price of a new one. Gee. Thanks.
We had the same problem - only it took us about 2 1/2 years - we loved this coffee maker, but the shelf life is not long. Also the under carriage where the coffee gets into the pot, the rubber piping to prevent leaks also wore out over a year ago, and caused coffee to leak, made my husband very upset, probably why the heating pad wears out so quickly.
Throw it out
Don't push the clock buttons "H and M" at the same time, some how it does a check on the circuit board, All the lights light up @ the same time and says test, 5104 then good. a minuite later, says err2 or err3. called kitchenaid service, they don't know what or why it does that and gives me advice to unplug it then plug it back in. DUH. It's trash now, no way on how to fix the problem. Spoke to a manager, told me that " We can send a new one to you for $20.00 off the original price. When i can go to Macys and get the same one for $79.95. !! just won't buy another kitchenaid again.
