Hello
,my KVA does not recognize the filled water tank. The float magnet is but freely movable, so does not jam.
After opening the housing I have found that on the circuit board (counterpart to the float magnet) a component with 3 solder points is broken off. It is apparently 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 already very curious about your answers and hope that I can be helped here.

Hello again,

as a supplement I add again a picture.
The broken off component is the part marked with the arrow.
It apparently reacts to the float magnet in the water tank and detects whether the tank is empty or full.

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