Hello,
my fully automatic coffee Krups EA8108 does not recognize the filled water tank. The float magnet is but freely movable, so does not jam.
After opening the housing, I found that on the circuit board (opposite the float magnet) a component with 3 solder points is broken off. It seems to be the reed sensor for detecting the water level.
Can someone tell me the exact designation or order number, I would trust myself to solder the component myself.
Or does someone have such a circuit board left and would sell it to me?

I am very curious about your answers and hope that someone here can help me with this problem.

Greetings gunde

Hello again,

I'll add a picture as a supplement.
The broken component is the part marked with the arrow .
It seems to react to the float magnet in the water tank and detects if the tank is empty or filled.

It is surely to get in an electronics shop if one knows what to order.
I ask for the help of an electronics specialist.

Greetings gunde
