    • The bottom plate of the coffee maker contains one screw. The screw requires a 4 mm Y tip screwdriver with a shaft length at least 1.5 inches.

    • Y tip screw.

    • Use a screw driver to push the rectangular tabs that are secured in the rectangular holes at the back of the unit. Then run a pick in the seam of the base from the back to the front which releases the base.

    • Cut the cord off the outside of the unit near the cord strain relief. This cut cord will be used as the replacement power cord.

    • The power cord attaches to high temperature wires inside the unit. Cut where the high temperature wires connect to the power cord.

    • Inside the unit, strip the plastic insulation off of the wires that are being replaced. Then pull out the copper wires.

    • Removal of the copper allows easier removal of the strain relief which must be compressed and pulled out from the outside of the unit.

    • Place the recovered cord through the strain relief making sure that the internal cord length will be long enough to attach to the high temperature wires.

    • Attach crimp connectors to the high temperature wires.

    • If the connectors do not heat shrink, be sure to slip heat shrink tubing onto the high temperature wires before connecting to the electric cord.

    • Crimp the connectors to the power cord.

    • Use a heat gun to shrink the heat shrink tubing around the crimped connectors.

    • Snap the bottom plate back on the unit and reattach the screw.

Conclusion

Make yourself some coffee.
