 Hey everyone, Shaber1000 here. Today we got this Cuisinart coffee maker. I think it's the 1200. Anyway, it just stopped making coffee. You can hear it trying to do something. It's getting hot but it's not it's not putting coffee in bringing it down. So I think there's a clog in it. We have hard water. When you have hard water you know you should clean these out with vinegar like once a month. But you know things like this these kind of appliances they get neglected. I mean you know you wipe them down and you make your next pot of coffee and you don't realize it you know until well they're not working. So I want to try to get this lighting issue straightened out here and we're gonna I think this comes apart at the bottom. I've never had one of these apart. I've had many coffee makers apart but never one of these. So that's what we're gonna do. We're gonna try to get it cleaned out and see if we can get it working again. So stick around and see what's happening. Okay guys so our other liquid working it's a selfie light. We got a Walmart and well the the head kind of came off of it and kept falling off. So I went to use it today and now it won't even light up. But as you can see this is this is all from hard water all that stuff there. It's all from hard water. I've checked everything up on top here that needs to be checked. I got the filter over there soaking in vinegar but everything's running through like from here down. So it's not coming out of here. So my guess is we've got to take the bottom off. I don't see any screws. There might be two under here. Let's see if we can get this off first. I'm going to use my little tool here. I love this little thing. It's a scent to me by a company. A little light on it. So first let's take these little rubber things out of here. I believe they'll probably be screws underneath that underneath these rubber things or plastic or whatever they are. This is not going to get it. I'm kind of having a hard time seeing here. Hang on a second guys. Let me get you situated better. Okay it's about the best angle I can get. This is what I'm talking about right here. These little plugs. Let's see. Got a couple of picks here and a little tiny screwdriver. Usually when you see these they're covering up screws because you would think this would come off without having to take the bottom off. I don't want to have to go through the bottom if I don't have to. Yeah they're moving up and down. My guess is this screws on to here and this can come out but so let me see. Well okay. There's some screws down here in the bottom. Looks like torques. I don't know and I don't know if I'm gonna have one long enough to go down in there. Oh that's baby widow. Hang on I gotta get rid of that thing. Okay you got rid of him. Ain't messing around spiders like that in the house. I'm guessing these tubes are clogged so take this over here and get it washed off. That would be my guess so I don't know if I can get like I said the top apparently comes off them plugs. This is what a little bit of rust on them. Okay this just popped off something. Okay I can't blow through it. Seems to be clogged. Try to get this off of here. Okay let me get these hoses off here and we'll go from there. Okay couldn't get them hoses off there. I don't want to damage them. I don't know if they're glued on or what but I'm gonna get these plugs out of here by screwing a screw down in it you know and that's what I did with the other one but I can blow through it now before I could suck through the hose and I could get air but I couldn't blow through it so now I mean that I could have you know maybe got an unplugged just doing that. I don't see any screws down in there. I'd like to get this off so I can soak it in vinegar. I'm not sure. Okay so it's the back it's all one piece. Sounds like it's clear. I'm gonna put this back on here. I'm gonna put some water in it. I gotta get my needle nose pliers. I'm gonna make sure I didn't damage that. Make sure it's not gonna leak. Then we'll plug it in. If it works we'll put some the vinegar she had in here we'll put it back in here. There's just a little tube down in here. If this goes on I know you guys can't see it because I can't see it. Now I gotta get my needle nose and get that. Okay that's on there and get that clamp it's just one of these I got to squeeze it together and push it down on. Put some water in here make sure don't leak. I hope it don't. I hope I didn't damage that. We'll see. Okay I put some water in it it didn't leak but I thought I seen a whole one of them hoses because I tried to use that little screwdriver here to kind of pry around in case there was any glue to punch through. There wasn't any water leaking out but let's see what happens with hot water. I'm gonna leave the base the bottom off for now and we're gonna see if this thing is gonna work or not. I'm gonna put these back in. If it works without leaking then I'll put the bottom back on there only there's four screws so but I believe just had a clog in it and I'll have her do a third cleaning on it once we fix it and get all this what's it called calcium off of here from the hard water. Now we're going to go over here we're gonna fill it up make sure there's no leaks. We'll turn it on see if it works. There's the nastiness that came out of the filter which is this right here probably about due for another one but let's go ahead and fill this up. I'm gonna go clear it up. You would think with all this technology they'd have a easier way to fill damn coffee pot up you know. Make sure it's off. You can set this up to it's programmable. There it's on. I mean it would make gurgling noises but it wouldn't just wouldn't put the coffee through so making noises. Hopefully we got the clog out. I've seen it start dripping. Okay let's give it a couple minutes. Nope not yet we didn't get the clog so it's good thing I didn't put the bottom back on. So I'm gonna dump this out into this pan and I'll meet you back over on the counter. Actually we're just gonna stay right here. I'm gonna try to run. Piece of this real thin wire through there. See what that does. Might need to find a heavier piece but just see if it brings out anything. So this is what I'm gonna do. I'm just gonna sit here blowing through pretty clear now. It wasn't when I first took that hose off there. Yeah see it's getting up in there. So this is what I'm gonna do. I'm just gonna keep trying to clean this out. I would say there's a bunch of calcium buildup in there. This is only going so far and stopping and I know it's up into there. So all right that's what I want to do. Might get a different piece of wire. Get it shoved up through there and I'll be back with you. Here we go. So I'm gonna keep clearing that out. I think that vinegar really really helped. I also used this little brake cable off of a bicycle. Yeah okay. I'm gonna keep clearing it out. It's all over here. I'm gonna clear that out some more. I don't know if you guys are seeing that or not. Let's bend this over. Okay I'm gonna clear this out. I'm gonna put these hoses back on and we'll try the vinegar trick again. Okay I got to fill back up. Plug it in. Okay that's weird. That's working. Great. We made it worse. Let me check it again. I don't know how many of you guys caught that but I think I was plugging the toaster in and I was. All right let me get this filled back up. Jesus. All right now close this up. It's on. Clones don't leak. Now we're good. So it's got low, medium, high. It's doing something. I've seen the drip. Okay let's let it do its thing for a minute. All right so I managed to get one of the hoses off without damaging it. Right in there. It's a big pumpkin. Whatever. Calcium, dirt. It's not rust because that's aluminum. So I'm just going to keep picking at that until I can get something to go all the way up around through there because it feels like it's right up in this area here. So I'm going to keep messing with that. I just wanted to let you know or show you what I came up with. That's what the problem is. Let me keep working on it. All right here we go again. Sorry about the air but really hot. Actually stuff down in the bottom of that thing. Make sure we got the right cooler this time. Made it worse. All right here we go. Let's see what happens. It shouldn't take very long. Okay it's starting. I don't know how well you guys are going to be able to see this. I'm sure you can hear it. It slowed down but I'm going to let it run a little bit. See what happens. I might not have gotten it all but we're getting there. So all right let's let it run a little bit. Okay it's working. So I'm going to let it go ahead and go through this and then I'll do another clean vinegar rinse and then I'll run just hot water through it. So it seems to be doing all right now. So cool. Then I'll kick you back on. I'll let you know if it worked. Okay guys. So I ran it through again. Then I filled it up with another thing of vinegar and I ran it through again. Look at that guys. This is what you're adjusting if you don't keep your stuff clean man. So now I'm going to run some regular water through it. Maybe twice but it seems to be doing good. But after we do all that I'm going to put the bottom back on. Maybe make them a pot of coffee. I don't know. Got to try it out right. I don't drink coffee so I don't know but I know that should be clear. So let me run some water through it and we'll see what it looks like after I do that. Now this is water so I'm going to dump the water in there and we'll see what it looks like when it comes out. Man that's thing this thing's running really fast but it's getting better so I'm just going to keep running it through till it comes out clear. Okay let's see how this one looks. Yeah much better. Oh sorry. Sorry about the thunder in the background. Much better. I think I want to run one more thing of water through it. Then I'll make them some coffee. Okay guys. I'm gonna put it back together now. Should have been out here monkey. There was a baby widow on here. There it is. And that'll work. Cool. Now I think we're gonna make a pot of coffee. I won't bring you in for that so there it is. If you have a little bit of know how you can do this yourself. Those hoses you can buy online. They're like five bucks on Amazon. You can get a whole roll for like eight dollars so they're real cheap. This one has a check valve in it. Same thing. You can get four check valves for like four or five dollars. So yeah it's ready to rock and roll. So thanks for watching guys. Appreciate it. Shea bearer the myth man legend gone for now. We'll see guys in the next one. Bye bye and take care. He's gonna try a cup see if it tastes any different. It's got to 11 minutes 28 seconds to very 12 cups. It's pretty hot. Look at that. Steaming hot. Big difference? Yeah. Yeah. What do you watch the video and see how much of that stuff I took out of there? I'm afraid to. Well I forgot filters. I forgot there was filters for the thing and then I was cleaning out the cover one day and threw the filters out. I didn't even realize what they were. I thought they came from mom's house. So we got hard water so we're gonna do that once a month. Yeah. Get those filters and change the filter once a month. Yeah. At least until we can we get our water softener. Yeah. Our whole house filter. I haven't decided what I'm gonna put in yet. Yeah. But I know but anyway so and then three to four times a year because you know well water. Yeah. I know. All right. There you go mom. Thank you babe. Bye. Bye y'all.
