Well, maybe not a rip-off but making it necessary to pitch a perfectly
good Mr. Coffee BL 4 coffe brewer. Plus I have two carafes for it. The
lighted on/off switch pops out. There are four wires that push on to
the back of it. This morning when I turned it on, the switch fell
apart. Simple fix, get new switch, push on four wires, pop switch back
into coffee maker.
NOPE! No replacement parts that have to be wired in are sold.
Yeah, I know I could replace the switch with an after market switch,
but having the on light is handy. This Mr. Coffee doesn't have an
automatic shut-off on it, so this makes a light necessary.
You'd think that the simplicity of installing a new switch would make
it a replacement part.


Yea, I had one that also had a problem. I would have looked for a part,
if I thought it would be available and at any kind of reasonable price.
Let's face it, it was not designed to be repaired. It is a throw-a-way.
Many things are. Most people would not know how to do it themselves and
there are no repairmen around to do that kind of work at a price that would
make it doable.
