Stuart's Bosch Tassimo Hot Drinks Machine Forum

After placing the t-disc in the machine the automatic icon lights up (green) but the start/stop button cannot be pressed to start the brewing process. Any ideas please?

When you say that "the start/stop cannot be pressed" do you mean it physically doesn't move or that nothing happens when you do press it? If it's the former, then this suggests the switch is at fault. If it's the later it could be either the switch or the controlling circuit board.

Unfortunately, Tassimo machines are not meant to be repaired. You could try opening it up to see if there's anything you can do. See http://www.stuartdalby.co.uk/miscellaneous/tassimo_repair/ for details on how to do this. Failing that, I think your only option is replacement.

Hope that helps,
Stuart
