Philips Senseo II 7810 HD Water Level Sensor Magnet

Giriş

The magnet for the water level sensor floats up in the water tank and shuts off the machine when there is no water in it. This magnet is always in the water and will corrode over the years. The sensor then no longer works and the status LED flashes quickly even though there is water. that would be indicative of having to change the magnet.

Lift off the small lid on top of the water tank.
The magnet in the float bowl can be seen from above.
The float is secured by a metal clip.
The metal clamp is placed from above in the center of the plastic bar inside the container and must be pulled up.
It may also be possible to loosen the clamp by turning the container upside down and hitting it on a firm surface. The weight of the magnet will pull the clamp up.

Use needle nose pliers to pull out the clip.
The water tank is very narrow, so it takes effort and patience to get to the clip. The clip may break, then you will have to secure the magnet later, e.g. with a dab of hot glue.
It may also be possible to insert the clip roughly using the pointed pliers. A wooden chopstick can be used to press it down into its final, locked position. However, the force must be applied exactly in the center of the pointed part of the clip.
