Coffee flap Orchestro Plus defective

hello,

i have a krups orchestro plus. when switched on, it immediately indicates that the coffee flap is open (flashing spoon with coffee on the display).

can the problem come from the fact that from the inside flap, where you put the coffee, the left pin is broken off and it is held only by the right pin?

What can i do? for a repair/exchange of parts the necessary small change is missing at the moment.

many thanks for help and greetings!

Hello,

the one with the inner flap can cause the problem,
since a magnet is attached to the flap mechanism, which reports the opening of the flap to the
machine via a reed switch.

Hello,

You must ensure that the reed contact switches cleanly when the
flap is closed.

hello,

how do i do that? sorry, i know my IT-specific, but i am new to coffee machines. do i have to open the machine?

i first brought it to the dealer of my trust and it looks at what the fun costs me. what should the repair in the specialist shop cost maximum?

thank you for your help and greetings.

Hello,

the repair can cost about € 70,- to € 100,-.
The repair depends on what exactly is defective and what
the spare part costs (if the part is still available as ET - which
is not a matter of course at Krups...).

Look where the reed contact is, look where the magnet is, make sure both come together again.
