Thank you for this. Ours blew this morning. Following your instructions I confirmed it was indeed the fuse and I just ordered the replacement. I hope I’m nimble enough to install the new one
Nice. I think they had some major quality control issues on these. Mine has worked perfectly since I fixed it but I’m apparently not the only one that’s had this issue. My father in law got the same one and it appeared to be new however it wouldn’t pump any water. I opened it up and found a wire had come unsoldered from the water pump.
Right on!! We have a different model Keurig, but same basic function same thermal fuse problem except mine is a disk shape about 1/4" thick. Now i just gotta locate one... But at least its turning on and getting hot again, so i know it works... Big Thanks!!
Thank you for the video, It helps to diagnose the problem. I ordered the fuse, however it is very difficult to connect it in its place. How are you able to put in such a narrow place. Any advices or video to show that? Thanks!
So followed your advice and figured out existing thermal fuse was bad and purchased a new one. Unfortunately I amde the mistake of not remembering which direction the fuse needs to go and was hoping you could help me out. Thank you in advance.
@savemoneydiy87 **Update** It was working fine and I had filled the reservoir with a white vinegar/water solution to clean out the entire coffee maker and ran both sides several times last night and this morning and blew out that fuse again. I'm not sure if I overheated it by using it so much within a short time span or if there is another underlying issue with the coffee maker. Do you think I would be OK using a thermal fuse with a slightly higher temp instead of 128°C threshold?
Weird…cheap fuses maybe. Mine was 37 days old and blew after brewing a regular pot. I have a new one coming via warranty but figure I’ll fix this one as a backup.
Loved your video, told this 64 year woman what to do...and then again what not to do. I disassembled easily, located the fuse and wire...snipped that no need for a fuse to be there item, (only to break again and repeat) saved the $6 and a day or two of no coffee, hot wired it together with some electrical tape like my generation Jones would do, snapped it back together and wham bam thank you mam...we are all happy except those of you that will exclaim; did I pull the city permit? the house will burn down...literally tonight (ummmm, if your that scardey cat pull the plug after using), and of course the mfg who really just wanted me to buy another one. Nope, I'm from the hose drinking, no seat belt wearing, played in the streets until the lights came on (more in fear of a whooping which is different than a beating) gal. Have lived life hard and fast and if God chooses to take me out over a fuse...then His will be done, Amen.
I have a Keurig K-1500 that stopped working. Thought it was the thermal fuse because the reservoir was emptied while still hot. Still not turning on even after cooldown, but still lets me toggle the auto-off feature. Replaced thermal fuse, but still not working. What else could it be?
I agree. My fathher-in-law and I both bought ours from a return store. They were both new but had been returned. Mine had this problem and his wouldn’t pump water. I fixed them both but Keurig definitely had some issues on these. Neither one has broken again though so 🤞. It’s been about a year.
@@savemoneydiy87 I am at the point there I got the fuse out behind the clamp just. It sure if i should crimp it or solder it. I hope it goes well and smoothly. Good to hear your machine is still kicking strong 💪 how did you fix yours
Agreed, I have two different models and I am always replacing the thermal fuse and manually resetting the other one.. especially after descaling. Keurig really needs to address this fuse issue.

No problem. And good luck
Mine blew during a descaling cleaning. Thanks for video and link. Just ordered a replacement fuse.
No problem. Happy to help. Mine is still working just fine.
Once you replace the fuse, how do you keep it from blowing again when descaling again?
Someone gave me one that had this issue... brand new...$6 for a brand new Keurig? Yes, please! Thank you for putting this together! 🎉

Awesome video! Thanks for helping me get my daughter's Keurig working again!!!
No problem. Glad it helped.
The fuse that you pulled out of the coffee maker was specifically a 15A 128 deg C thermal cutoff fuse? Just want to double check with you first
Correct. There is a direct link in the description but yes that’s what it is.
Thank you for the video, It helps to diagnose the problem. I ordered the fuse, however it is very difficult to connect it in its place. How are you able to put in such a narrow place. Any advices or video to show that? Thanks!
I removed it from under the bracket and pulled it away as best as I could.
worked like a charm and took less than 10 min!!!!! thnx!
No problem. Glad it helped.

Direction doesn’t matter on a fuse.
@@savemoneydiy87 it worked. Thank you for making this super helpful video.
No problem and thanks for watching. It’s getting close to a year since I fixed mine and it still works fine and gets used daily.

You could try it. If it was mine that’s what I’d do. I assume you are sure you got a good crimp connection on your new fuse.
Thank you very much, and for including the link for the part. This fixed it for me 👍
No problem. Glad it helped.
How long did your fix last? Wonder if it happens again do you try I higher temp or higher amp fuse?
It’s still going. I use it daily. It sounds like it blows if you do the descaling process but I’m not sure. I don’t ever do that.

Yep, I'm 68 and whole-heartedly agree 😉

Replaced thermal fuse, but still not working. What else could it be?
I’m not sure. Mine would not turn on at all. If you have a meter you can try tracing your voltage until you see where you are losing it.
The part is no longer available on Amazon...
You can use this one. It will give you a little more margin before blowing.

Thanks. Got mine working.
Glad it helped
My coffee maker works fine, but the frother doesn't have power. Please help...
I can’t help on that one. I don’t have any experience fixing those.
Do i need to have the fuse in it
If you want it to be protected you do.
But what will happen if I don't put one back in there and just run it straight?
If the fuse you removed was bad and you remove it and straight wire it, it will work you just won’t have fused protection.
@@savemoneydiy87 ok thanks
Did you get it going?
Some buddy gave me his said it has this issue if I can fix it I can have it but seems like these keurig machines have a defect idk

I crimped mine back on.
Just say what's wrong with it
I’ll save all of you some money, don’t get one.
