The water boiler ( Alcatel ) is one of the most important appliances in the kitchen, which converts electrical energy into heat energy.
But its malfunctions are what can piss you off the most when you need a quick cup of tea.
Alcatel consists of a water flask, and a base responsible for conducting electricity, from the power source to it.
In the middle of which there is an inner circuit, and an outer one, to be met by the same two circuits in the water cooler.
If you have been complaining about “the boiler not working ” often, here is a solution that will not take you more than 10 minutes.
First, the base test
1. Detach the bottom cover from the base with a screwdriver.
2. Connect the circuit to the test lamp.
3. Use a conductive tool and touch both ends of the base.
- If you don't see flashing, it means a base malfunction, replace the circuit with a new one.
- If you notice a flash, this means that the base is working properly, and the flask is faulty.
4. Replace the base cover.
Second: Repair of the Alcatel flask
1. Remove the bottom cover of the Alcatel, and disconnect it from the signal bulb wire attached to the beaker.
Now we want to make sure of the file's quality.
2. Touch both ends of the test bulb to the ends of the coil.
If the lamp does not light, the coil is damaged, and you must replace the entire Alcatel.
But if the lamp lights up, this means that the coil is intact, and now we have to prepare the internal base connected to the bottom of the Alcatel.
3. Separate the inner base from the Alcatel.
If the inner base has damaged parts, replace it completely.
If there is carbon deposited on the platinum parts, you must remove them and clean them.
4. Replace the base with Alcatel.
Thus, you are assured of the quality of the internal and external base.
I guess you won't be uttering a "boiler not working" complaint anymore.
Now that you're done reading, get up and do the previous steps, and enjoy your quick hot drinks all day long.
