Hi altogether.

My Krups EA 8025 has been having problem with water tank for a couple of days.

When I turn on the Krups EA 8025, the display will show " INSERT WATER TANK and FILL UP WATER TANK " .

I changed a new filter and tried to remove and replace the water tank, but still can't remove the error.

Can anyone help me? how can I fix the problem. Thank you in advance.

Does the float in the water tank still work...or is it perhaps broken or stuck so that it does not float upwards...?

Many thanks for quick answer

I tried to pull the magnetic float up with a small wire and the error message is gone. Krups EA 8025 works again. Thanks again for the type.

I have a question. Can I put a stainless steel plate under the float so that the float stays up or should I buy a new water tank?

Many thanks.

If the swimmer still floats, I'd just spray a little bit of cleaner into the chamber of the magnet.

Of course rinse everything out then biggrin.gif

If the magnet is free again and no longer floats, you simply clamp a piece of polystyrene or cork under the magnetic float.

must correct me had boiled out once worked and then again I did not put a power magnet in the tank which the swimmer can no longer go down since the rest you have to make sure that the tank always has water but I can live with that
