CBR-101 REED Sensor

Attempted to install in the older Gene Cafe (circa 2012). Screw holes aligned and it plugged into the board ok, but the hall sensor is too thick on this new one and it was hitting a nib on the rotation wheel on every revolution. Also would not work as the drum just kept spinning.

Re-installed the old reed sensor and it worked fine. So although I had been getting an E3 error before, the original problem must have been related to something else.

However, if this part ever does fail it would be good to sell the old one which is has a much thinner profile. Would appreciate it if older parts were clearly delineated from the new model, just like how the heating unit is.

Reed sensor not the problem. Found drive motor getting less than 12 volts
We will see if a new power board will turn the motor again..

E-3 code for reed sensor so ordered that sensor. It was not the same congratulation as the original. Installed it but I hade a different problem. The drive gear was split and just spun on shaft. The same code E-3 shows up. So now I'm not sure if the reed sensor is misinstalled or if the same code is used for the malfunctioning drive gear.

It was an exact fit and got us roasting again.

I found this sensor here and other sites. The other sites did not include the connector cable, so would have had to purchase that as well. This was also the best price for the product. It was shipped out from the east coast and arrived to the west coast a few days later (3 days after shipping). Did not expect to receive it that quickly. It was easy to replace and worked to fix my problem with E3 error that I was getting.
