I have a Mr. Coffee brewing machine. It is a PRX33 4198 model. The
machine has the following selections for brewing coffee: 1) auto
start, 2) on 3) 1-4 4) Clean. These selections are made by pushing
the select button until the one desired has its light turned on next
to it.

Its current problem is that it no longer seems to work. The digital
clock shows the time, which indicates that it is getting electricity.
The selection button works for only two of the selections: 1) 1-4 cups
and 2) Clean. When either of these selections are made, nothing
happens. In other words, no water from the reservior flows to the
container.

Is there any way I can get the machine to work only on an "on-off"
basis?? I would like to bypass all of the complicated stuff and just
brew coffee in the simple way. We actually have an old fashion
electric percolater coffee maker. I just want this as backup.

Thanks.


Don't bypass anything, the "complicated stuff" might be essential for
safe operation of the machine. I'm not familiar with this machine, but
the problem could be something simple, is there any sort of interlock
switch, like to ensure a carafe is in place?
