How to repair Sunbeam Minibarista EM4300 coffee machine: leaks from top!
This Sunbeam EM4300 coffee machine leaks water from the top into the coffee! This video shows how I opened the machine and found rust inside so it’s been leaking for a while already. The switch insides had degraded from long term use with heat, so it needed to be replaced. Good to know a replacement was available online. Switch replaced and machine makes coffee leak free again!

Просмотров 5305 месяцев назад
This Kitchenaid hand blender was making a bad burning smell. The repair includes the replacement of the faulty resettable fuse, but also the rubber cover which was destroyed to get to the circuit board inside. However the cover was already cracked and the silicone tape replacement worked well.

Traduzione grazie
Ho imparato a sottotitolare e tradurre in italiano. Per favore, dai un'occhiata. Spero che sia d'aiuto!
Thanks for the video! I actually came here looking for ways to adjust the pump pressure. Might be a long shot, but would you happen to know if this looks possible on this machine?
Sorry I’m not sure how to adjust pump pressure. That may involve modifying the pump or its power supply.
Mine had the exact same problem of pump not stopping. There were no burnt components just a short on the board somewhere.
Thanks for sharing your experience. It might have been a short in the board itself like in my case? I’ve never seen this before and assumed it was some charred remains!
@@Mike-It-Work I also noticed other people with the fault similar to mine so I changed the triac T2 and now it's fixed.
How did you get the centre spindle out? I have disassembled to the point at 2:58 but the centre mechism (with the thread) will not budge no matter what I try
Maybe the top of the threaded rod is still attached to the inner pipe (spindle)? In my case the connection was completely gone. Can you unscrew the ring gear (the one that actions the threaded rod)? If this comes off the inner pipe (with clothesline attached) should be free to pull through with the threaded rod.
Master of puppets...yeah 🙂. this was the best argument and perfect sound example. I bought today a used 3120...40 years ago I had the 3020 and I sold it to a friend, which was one of my biggest Hifi-mistakes I ever made...now I corrected it and will check this out. Thx for the service details information..
can you give me a hand bro i have a mini barista 125v, i always mess around with it by opening and cleaning the lines but last time i didn't descale my machine for over 7 moths (the steam wand was clogged) and when i finally did used a good descale i heard a different sound, in the end the steam wand came back to live but now then i press the single or duo shot the water comes out the head group and also comes out the steam wand. i did descale other 3 times and all the lines are pretty clean but i think the sensor is damaged or blocked but the thing is, i have no idea on how to check that out
Sure no worries. It might be the selector switch. I’m not sure about the 125v but if it’s the same as the one I fixed in the video then it sounds like a degraded switch. I made another video fixing this machine which leaks from top. You can see it in my channel. As the switch also directs water to the wand the same faulty switch would lead to water leaking to the wand as you see. If it is the switch, replacements can be bought from parts suppliers. I show this in my other video. Good luck.
@@Mike-It-Work i just saw the video that you are talking about, i will give it a try this weekend, fingers cross that i will solve this issue haha ty mate!
@@Mike-It-Work i did open the switch it had a little amount of limescale but i cleaned it, sadly the issue still there, every time i try to get a single or doble shot water comes out the steam wand and the headgroup at the same time, but when i want to use the steam it works as intented. where can i find this part? i live in the uk do you think i can get it from aliexpress or something like that?
When I opened the switch I noticed the steam port had the most deteriorated plastic at the valve seat due to heat damage so it never seals. So if its the same as yours, it explains what you are seeing. I don't see the switch available from UK suppliers when I search the brand and model. Maybe the model number is different there for the same unit? An example Australian supplier is below. I hope you can find a local parts supplier! spares.bigwarehouse.com.au/product_info.php?products_id=2555471

@mike it work! Interessante molto interessante, ma per favore potresti mettere scritta la traduzione in italiano? Mi daresti veramente un grandissimo aiuto! Grazie mille in anticipo. Grandeeee

Where are you from?
Hi there Mike. Thanks heaps for posting this vid. I have the exact same problem with my old Hills hoist which seems to be the same model as yours. The original base cap seems to have been welded on to prevent the lifting off of the top of the clothes line but you have replaced it with a loose type washer set up. I will try this method and report the result.
thanks for the video. Helped me figure out how to get it open. Mine was behaving the same way but no sign of any burning when opened up. replaced the triac and it's working perfectly again
Great you got yours fixed! Thanks for sharing your experience.
Where do you buy the replacement motor?
I got mine in Australia from Dyson Revive. But I see Amazon sells them too. Search for “Dyson V11 motor”
Thank you very much for sharing this video. Very helpful
Nice one Mike. They all seem to perish in the same spot and I you can't buy just the conical washer anywhere. Hills only sell the entire top post and full replacement parts kit. 80 cent 5 mm washer and did the same as you. Good on you for posting the video
Great video! Any recommendations where to buy the motor?
Thanks. I see them on Amazon, but I got mine in Australia from dysonrevive.com.au
I found a 4-slice Smeg toaster, nearly new, at the side of the road. Just needed to clean the solenoid, as in your video. Thanks, for a quick repair.
Thank you very much ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
