CBR-101 PCB POWER ASSEMBLY
$ 24.00
Replacement power control board for CBR-101.
I had a heating failure on my almost 20 yo Gene Cafe and needed to expedite the parts to fix the issue. After chatting w/ technical service I decided the extra cost of the power assembly was outweighed by my ability to get my roaster up and running sooner.
Turned out to be the heater.
Unit wasn't heating. Wasn't sure what was wrong: meter readings made no sense. The heater was reading the right resistance, so I guessed that it was the power unit since everything else was functioning. And the power unit was the cheapest part. It worked!
condition: running, no heat in middle of roast, no error codes
pulled little circuit board (power supply board) found bad solder joint on heater relay. Ordered new board, while waiting on shipping, re-soldered relay to circuit board and was back in business luckily / surprisingly.. Will keep new board in spare parts bin.
A very easy to install component, providing an inexpensive way to continue roasting on the fabulous machine.
An essential part that is easy to order and easy to install. I was back to roasting in just a few minutes. The hardest part was waiting the few days for shipping.
