To repair it, one must find out what the cause is. Do some fault finding first; check there is power at the switch and the motor has continuity etc. When you have found the faulty part, then you can replace the faulty part or repair the break in the cable etc.

Question edited for clarity. Unfortunately you can't. The chime sounder is part of the main control board. Next time you take it in for dealer servicing, ask if they can muffle it with some silicone. Or upgrade to the DCC-3200 model ..

Don't switch off using the lid interlock or that will be next to go. It is to stop you from running it without the lid. Turn it off at the wall socket. Cuisinart Spares https://www.google.com/search?q=Cuisinart+Class+Pro+parts ..

I followed the instructions above and have my tea kettle working again. ( i did not test the relay as above, just replaced it).Thank you so much for your help Mr. Woolverton. A few points from my experience:1-There are special screwdrivers available for the triangular slots in the screws on the base of this kettle. A package of 32 "security drivers" including various sized drivers cost me $15 at my nearby electronics store. Individual ones might be a lot less expensive, but I figure the others will come in handy in the future.2-I could not locate the original relay part by Song Chuan but did find the Omron brand. I highly recommend Digikey.com, where I bought item Z3080-ND for $6.22 including USPS standard shipping. Got the part in 2 days. They even use recyclable packaging. Use the Chat option to ask questions. Very helpful.3- Desoldering a tiny part on a circuit board is not easy. This is especially true when the part is connected to the board in 6 locations. I went to Youtube and saw how to do this first. The use of a flux-covered piece of braided wire, designed for this purpose, was most helpful. $4.22 I also used an inexpensive Solder Sucker $6.95 to help. Both obtained at the neighborhood electronics part store. The guy threw in a bit of flux for the braided wire without charge. All this stuff is reusable and went into my soldering kit.The rest went without a problem. You need a soldering iron that can reach into a small spot without hitting nearby sites on the board.Overall, the repair cost very little and saved a $75-$90 item from the landfill. All the parts except the relay are usable again on other projects - and I learned a lot. Thanks again, Stephen WoolvertonFollow up 2+ years later Jan 2019- kettle still working with no additional problems. Was worth the effort.

Cuisinart hand mixers are not repairable. You can buy replacement accessories like beaters, but you can't buy any internal replacement parts.

I have a Cuisinart HM-70 and I stripped the plastic gears inside by trying to mix a really thick dough. It was easy to open and get to the plastic gears. When I called Cuisinart to try to get replacement gears, they said that they don't sell replacement parts and their hand mixers are not repairable. I looked all over the internet and no one sells internal parts.

Unless your mixer is still under warranty, I believe that you're out of luck and your mixer is headed to the electronics recycle pile.

Most handmixers today are sold with plastic gears - including high end brands like Viking. For me the lesson learned is to buy low end hand mixers (don't buy a top of the line 9 speed mixer) and treat them like they're disposable when they break.

Switch it off and wait 10 minutes: Sometimes, if your coffee maker is still new and has water sitting in it for a long time, or if you have just cleaned it, you might see an error message saying that there is no water. Just turning them off and waiting 10 minutes will often solve the problem. Afterward, turn it back on, pour some water into it and try again! If for some reason it doesn't work after doing that, try the next steps mentioned below. Reset the clock, then brew a cup of coffee: Check to make sure all of your connections are properly secured and tight. Even a half-turn can cause problems with appliances that use electricity, and it is important to remember not to force any connection into place. You may need a new plug for an appliance that's been in service for many years if you are having trouble getting power to it-don't assume anything! Many older appliances have worn or damaged wiring. Turn it off and on again: The next logical step is to turn your coffee maker off and then back on again. This works with many small appliances and just might clear up whatever issue you're experiencing. In some cases, a reset button or power button will be present to make it easier. If not, try to turn it off at its power source (i.e., unplugging it) and then plug it back in afterward. If that doesn't work, try turning off your home's circuit breaker for a few minutes, if applicable, before returning power to it and trying again. If these tips do not work, you might try the customer service of the manufacturer.

perhaps remove the hopper (top) and inspect to see if a buildup of very fine compacted grounds as accumulated. knock the stuff loose.

Could be electrical, but: Hold in the program set button for several seconds. Set it for some time. Press the program set button one more time. See if it resolves the issue.

The crackling (which sounded a little like a geiger counter) which I could hear when the oven was NOT running was coming from the speaker (where the beeps come from). I unplugged the oven, found the little speaker on the circuit board, yanked one of the wires off of it, and the crackling was be gone.

First try adjusting it. The head may be set so low, the head can't latch. Does it latch with no whisk attachment? The video shows how to adjust it with the whisk in place using a dime.. If that isn't the reason, spares are available and dealer service is available. https://www.google.com/search?q=cuisinart+5.5+stand+mixer+parts ..

Plastic can absorb Stains, so you will need to use some kind of bleaching poduct. some products you can try individually:

• Baking soda
• Bleach
• Water
• Vinegar
• Rubbing alcohol

Dilute with luke warm water , except for Rubbing Alcohol Use some kind of tray which you don't mind if it gets bleach stains to protect your countertop. put the device on the tray. If you can't soak an item, try disconnecting the device, then wrapping a lightly soaked hand towel or paper towel over the area that is discolored Rinse with luke warm water, and make sure device has completely dried before reconnecting.

Check Water Reservoir: Ensure that the water reservoir is properly seated in place and filled with water to the appropriate level. Sometimes, the machine won't brew if it detects an inadequate water level. Check Water Inlet and Outlet: Inspect the water inlet and outlet for any clogs or blockages. Sometimes, debris or mineral buildup can prevent water from flowing through the machine. Clean any visible obstructions carefully. Descale the Machine: If the issue is due to mineral buildup, descaling the coffee maker might help. Use a commercial descaling solution or a mixture of equal parts water and white vinegar. Run this solution through the machine as you would during a regular brewing cycle. Afterward, run a few cycles with plain water to rinse out any residue. Inspect Grinder and Filter Basket: Check the grinder and filter basket for any coffee grounds or other debris that might be obstructing the flow of water. Ensure that the grinder and filter basket are correctly positioned and securely locked in place. Clean the Brew Head: The brew head may also become clogged with coffee grounds or oils, affecting water flow. If your machine has a removable brew head, take it out and clean it thoroughly. If it's not removable, follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning the brew head. Run a Cleaning Cycle: Some coffee makers have a cleaning cycle that helps remove buildup inside the machine. Refer to your user manual for instructions on how to activate the cleaning cycle. Reset the Machine: In some cases, a simple reset can resolve minor issues. Turn off the coffee maker, unplug it from the power source, wait for a few minutes, then plug it back in and try brewing again. Check the tubes: Make sure the tubes are sitting in the right place and filled to the correct level. Sometimes the machine will not make alcohol if it senses that there is not enough water.

Question edited for full 'make model (what it is)'. Question moved to maker category. this is a very simple 'drip though a filter, pour and serve' machine. You must have forgotten to put the coffee and filter in. It is easy to do and I have done it at least three times in 20 years. If you got hot water, the heater is working, if the grounds were dry, the water didn't spray over them. My sunbeam coffee maker won't let that happen. https://www.google.com/search?q=DCC-3200 ..

I also own a Cuisinart DGB-900BC. This is how I fixed the sensor issue.Disclaimer: IF YOU ARE UNSURE OF MY INSTRUCTIONS USE A MULTIMETER OR TESTER TO ENSURE YOU AREN'T MODIFYING THE WRONG WIRES WHICH COULD RESULT IN ELECTROCUTION IF DONE IMPROPERLY.Over time the basket tends to sag, which prevents the little sensor from contacting it for the unit to realize the door is shut. The sensor is a spring loaded piece of plastic hanging from the underside of the coffee maker which makes contact with the basket when it closes. If you're looking straight on it is to the left.What you'll have to do is either find a way to fix the basket sag, force the sensor closed, or do what I did and modify the unit.Sensor modification:You will need a size 10 security bit with the hollow center (not just a plain star bit) screwdriver to take the four screws out of the bottom to reveal the wires you need to modify. There are two blue wires that go to the top of the unit which are crimped onto two black wires. The two black wires lead to the circuit board which is extremely difficult to get to on this model. All you have to do is snip those two black wires and install a push button which keeps the circuit closed until you push it. Initially I thought twisting them together would work but this unit will not brew coffee a second time unless you remove the basket and toggle the sensor input. So I basically have to unplug the unit and plug it back in to reset that. I will be adding the push button soon.Ensure you buy the right push button. You need one that keeps the circuit closed until you push it, most push buttons keep the circuit open until you press them. Alternative is to buy a metal toggle switch, preferably one that spring loads back to the center after you push it.To summarize:1) Fix basket sag or wedge sensor to closed position.OR1) Remove bottom plate of coffee maker2) Snip the blue wires leading to the sensor and add a push button or toggle switch on the two black wires they were connected to. Mount switch externally so you can push it to fool the unit to think you removed and replaced the basket.My attached picture shows my temporary twisted wire solution with yellow connector before I added the push button. Note that while I'm holding the blue ones leading to the sensor, the two small black wires are what's important. I did this modification before making an account here.
