I had the problem with all the lights flashing and worked out it was the float magnet not triggering the switch inside the casing. I removed the float from the water container and by trial and error found where to hold it against the casing to trigger the switch. Then I superglued it in place and it works. Just have to keep an eye on the water level

I had this problem, all lights flashing and nothing happening. Although the float in the water tank seemed OK popping up and down, I took it out and broke it open to find the magnet had corroded due to water leaking in. I placed one of my kids' magnets over the part of the machine that lined up with where the float would be and the lights stopped flashing! So I took a hammer to the magnet so I had just a small piece and wedged it in between the water tank and machine. Works perfect now. You could fashion something else or replace the float if you can get hold of one but this way works fine. I refill my tank using a jug so I don't have to fiddle about with the magnet when trying to put the tank back.

When I switch on the yellow cup light comes on and then changes to red when I insert a coffee satchet. Nothing works then.

Cleaning the scan window Braun Tasimo 3107: Requires repair knowledge and special tools. Remove all power before disassembly.

1. Remove the two housing sides by removing Philips screws. Set aside and keep track of screws and location from which they came. During handling, do not disturb any of the electrical connectors to circuits


2. Position unit to lay on back side. Observe there are four torques #15 screws that need to be removed to separate the reader housing and dispensing pierce unit for service.

3. Clean all goo off all areas of this piercing unit and reader housing before disassembly of reader/pierce housing.

4. remove 4 only torques screws holding the two halves together- unit may be stuck together by dried syrups and products, Carefully using low force if necessary open the two halves. Observe that there is a square gasket surrounding the scan window. DO NOT lose that gasket. Also do not disturb the hot water hose connection or you will need a tye-rap to re-clamp it on the hose fitting.


5. Carefully remove the glass window and gasket and clean them up with soap and water. I usually apply a very small bead of sealer (could use FDA approved faucet grease on both sides of gasket to hold it in place for reassembly) around the window frame but not enough to smear onto the window glass.

6. Trial fit the gasket, window and housing together. If the window is clear, complete the operation by gently screwing the torques back into their respective locations. Do not over tighten the screws.

7. Trial fit the housing sides to make sure all seams are closed, apply the screws to secure sides.
8. Test machine using cleaning disk and pure water for one or two cycles. If okay, try a product disk.


Good luck

Don't know if this will help but my machine appeared to not work with the 4 blinking lights, then I filled up the water completely, vs. only half full, and tried plugging it in and turning it on. Guess what? It worked.

I have the same problem. I took the case apart and when I disconnect (or partially disconnect) the ribbon cable going from the upper (code reader) circuit board to the lower (switch) circuit board, various motors will kick on. So I am fairly sure the upper circuit board which controls the motors is messed up. It is sad when the electronics break before the pumps and tubes fail.

Mine is doing the same thing, in my case there is condensation inside the code reader so it is not reading.

I'm trying to find a fix for this now but haven't come up with anything yet.
