TANK HEATER
Location:
The tank heater is located inside the tank and
secured to the tank lid.
Test Procedures:
1. Disconnect the brewer from the power supply.
2. With a voltmeter, check the voltage across the
black and red wire. Connect the brew to the power
source. The indication must be 220 to 240 volts
ac.
3. Disconnect the brewer from the power source.
If voltage is present as described, proceed to #4
If voltage is not present as described, refer to the
Wiring Diagrams
and check wiring harness.
4. Disconnect the thermal cut-offs from the tank
heater terminals.
5. Check for continuity across the tank heater termi-
nals.
If continuity is present as described, reconnect the
thermal cut-offs, the tank heater is operating properly.
If continuity is not present as described, replace the
tank heater.
NOTE- If the tank heater remains unable to heat,
remove and inspect heater for cracks in the sheath.
Removal and Replacement:
1. Remove the tank inlet fitting securing the fill basin
to the tank lid, remove fill basin and tank inlet
gasket. Set all three parts aside for reassembly.

lead (white) and thermal cut-off with ready light
harness lead (black) from the tank heater termi-
nals.
3. Remove the thermostat capillary bulb by firmly
pulling up on the capillary at the tank lid. This will
