Location:
The brew valve is located inside the top cover behind
the front face plate.
Test Procedures:
1. Refer to the Programing Section for Service Tools/
Test Outputs/Brew Valve.
2. Be sure brew funnel & server are in place before
activating valve.
3. Check the valve for coil action. Turn on the valve
with the test mode. Listen carefully in the vicinity of
the brew valve for a click as the coil pulls the plunger
in.
If no sound is heard as described, proceed to #4.
If the sound is heard as described, there may be a
blockage in the valve , hose, tank, or sprayhead. Dis-
connect the brewer from the power source. Remove
the valve and inspect for blockage, and de-lime all
related areas.
4. Connect the voltmeter leads to the coil terminals.
Turn on the valve with the test mode.
The indication will be 2-3VAC off, 120VAC on. Set
the meter to DC volts. The indication should be 150-
160VDC when off, 0V when on. If the polarity of meter
leads are reversed, reading will indicate -150-160VDC.
(Double these readings for 240 volt coils)
If voltage is present as described, but no coil action
is observed, valve is defective. Replace valve and test
again to verify repair.
If voltage is not present as described, refer to Wiring
Diagrams and check the brewer wiring harness. Also
check the control board and membrane switch for
proper operation.
Removal and Replacement:
1. Disconnect the brewer from the power source.
2. Disconnect wires from the valve.
3. Drain enough water from the tank so the water
level is below the outlet.
4. Remove sprayhead and hose from the valve.
5. Remove the nut securing the valve to the sprayhead
panel.
6. Install new valve using the nut from step 5.
7. Reinstall sprayhead and hose to the valve and
secure in place with clamps.

FIG. 14-1 LATE MODEL BREW VALVE
Due to the internally rectifi ed coil, do not attempt to
test this type of coil with an ohmmeter. The reading
will be open or very high resistance, depending
on the polarity of your meter leads.
