Fix DeLonghi KG89 (thermal fuse replacement)

Quick video to show you the issue I had with my DeLonghi KG89. It stopped working after grinding 12 cups of beans. It was really hot so I thought it was just heat cooldown but even the day after it wouldn't work. Took it apart and noticed there was a thermal fuse that had no continuity. Replaced it and my grinder is back!
It was a 121°c thermal cutoff fuse. I broke the retaining clip so I used a strip of Kapton tape to stick it back to the assembly.

Thanks for diagnosing this issue and for making a video. Turns out that we shared the same issue. I jumped the fuse and got it working. Since everything is shutdown due to Covoid, I've ordered a thermal fuse online from Amazon. You got to love it when someone posts something on KZbin that's useful to many of us instead of being self promoting. Great work man.

Thanks a lot for the video! I followed the instructions and now have a working coffee grinder!!!

Thank you for the video. It happen the same to my KG89: stopped working after five times. It was because of this thermal fuse that burned out.

Hi, how do you remove the bottom burr? I have difficulty trying to unscrew.

How do you know if it's the fuse that's the problem? Other sites say it could be a yellow capacitor. My light on the power switch illuminates, but no grinding occurs. Nothing happens. Any help gratefully appreciated, as De'Longhi have closed their customer support lines due to COVID-19!

same issue... did you know what cozed your issue?

[@gazmondo]

@@m7mdrashid760 spoke with Delonghi. No repairs. Just binned it.

[@stefannicolet8704]

did the machine made a 'bang' before stopping working? I may have the same issue. Thanks

[@Raptor200637]

It may have, I wasn't in the room when it died unfortunately. It was really hot to the touch after the 2-3 batches I tried to do.
