ECM Mechanika V Slim: Replacing the Magnet Sensor

If your machine has stopped registering water in the reservoir, and your magnet float is floating, your sensor could be faulty.

You'll need:

- 2mm allen key

 

First,  you'll need to remove your panels.

The magnet sensor is located on the panel in back of the water reservoir, so remove the reservoir. ECM-Mechanika-Magnet-Sensor-Location

Using the 2mm allen key, remove the two screws fastening the magnet sensor to this panel. Warning: There are two nuts on the back side of this panel, so keep a hand on the back to avoid losing them.
