- Someone brought a faulty bread maker into our local repair cafe where I volunteer at. It has a bit of an unusual fault and starts going as soon as it's plugged in and doing other random things like it's possessed!
Let's take it apart, see if we can diagnose the problem and hopefully repair it! Warning: This video may make you hungry!

"It's open sauce" made me laugh more than it should have.
Yeah me too ! 🤣
Yes, I'm good with the dad jokes.. although my kids would disagree.. 😂😂😂
New series starts next week - Bake Off the Repairers :-)
Great comment made me LOL🤣
😂😂😂😂👍
+1 for spreading the repair cafe message.
Whoever designs appliances to beep on power up need to be fired.
It's all ok until you get power cuts and at 3am its seems like everything in the house starts beeping. We had 17 powercuts in one week, that led me to remove the beeper from pretty much everything.
I upgraded my old water boiling kettle, which used to just make a "click" sound as the switch sprung up after boiling. I got a new kettle mainly for the 70'C temp cut-off mode (which uses half the power to heat the water, over 100'C boiling). Anyway, it can take up to 8 of those loud "beeeps" over the course of sorting out my next coffee. It's a complete pain!
[pick up jug off base to refill water, "beep" I'm ready!, put down filled jug, "beep" choose a mode to boil me!, 70'C "beep", start boiling "beep".... "beep beep" I've finished heating your water!, pick up jug to fill coffee cup "beep"... put down jug back on the base "beep".] 😭 Not joking!
I removed the beeper from three tommee tippee babies bottle prep machine. Having it beeping at every step of the process making bottles all through the night was a bit much.
We have our repair cafe this Saturday at Peterborough really love fixing things there
You can replace the buzzers in those things with an LED (blue, green, red, pick your favorite) and 1K~5.1K resistor, just figure out which side is the negative side. This way, you will still be able to know if the machine needs attention but don't have to deal with the irritating beeps!
Yeah, good call, I'm also a mechanic, I pulled the dash from my car and disabled the constant warning beeper for seat belt so I can carry heavy shopping bags on the passenger seat without having to hook the bloody seat belt up every time! So annoying, do they think humans are completely stupid or what?
Wasn't expecting to get a pizza making demonstration. I love the bonus content 😂
Cheers 👍
Great delivery of the "open sauce" line. I blinked, thought "what a peculiar thing to say", and then it hit me.
😂😂😂Thanks 👍
Cracked me up too, makes life more enjoyable with a laugh or two.... bring them on, we can all use them.@@BuyitFixit
Thanks mate 😂👍
Was worth watching to the end for the "Open Sauce" comment if nothing else 🤣🤣 Great vid as usual!
Thank you 👍😂😂🍕🍕🍕🍕
Whoa ! Open sauce ! That was funny as hell !!! Love your videos. Great narration. Who would think you can learn to make pizza on a fix it channel. Oh I get it. It's fix myself dinner !!! :) We the Americans can call this type of videos a buy one get one free !!! Keep'em comin' !
😂😂😂Cheers 👍
Thank you so much for telling me about Repair Cafe. Just came back from volunteering for a local event in California and had a great time. This is a great concept, and I urge more people to volunteer.
Excellent! I was at our local repair cafe yesterday too, although I think the nice weather kept a lot of people away as we weren't that busy this time.
Yeah, because of him I volunteered as well. It's been great so far, meet some really nice folks, and an interesting mix of items that have come in for repair.
Greetings from Little Kev at the Repair Cafe Weymouth. Thanks for regularly passing on your knowledge and experience from one cafe to another 👍
Thanks Little Kev 👍
Lesson learned: A Triac failure mode can be that its become 'self exiting' (a REALLY happy Triac). As such will not show a short unpowered or removed from circuit. That faint reading between A1 and A2 was the clue. Future confirmation methods if a Triac is suspected is to check for presence of gate pin voltage or lift the gate pin and test device again.
Love the channel!
I'd like to start a Repair Cafe but since the 'coof' all the local parts outlets have closed. Can't even get resisters and diodes locally. :(
start it anyways then:)
Thanks 👍I've not came across Triacs much, and on the occasions when I have and they have failed they are usually blown to bits! Thanks again for the support 👍🙂
A small tip: use corn meal under the pizza peel it helps insulate the crust from the stone to keep from sticking and adds a neat flavor to the pizza.
Semolina works well too,as they are like tiny little marbles that make it roll easy ! also adds a flavour 🙂
Thanks for the tip 👍🍕
Mick. You can fix the machine and you can fix dinner. Amazing
😂😂😂😂😂👍
Multi talented
Mick diversifying the channel, love it 😂
Indeed 🍕🍕🍕Although I did do similar with the Kitchen Aid mixer.. and made some garlic bread that time 😂😂😂😂
From repairer to chef in one video, perfect. A through hole circuit board, sweet, vintage bread maker😊 Troubleshooting that board I thought you'd find a bad relay, a common electro mechanical problem but the triac was a good find, well done. Always great watching you work your way around diagnosing, finding the fault, repairing...thanks for the work. Open sauce😋tasty pizza👍
Cheers Terry 👍😂🍕
I thought Relay too; Watching these videos are like playing Bingo in reverse. List answer first, checking each off when tests ok. lol like i know what 'ok' is. Answers tends to show what needs moving up on list. Never Lose when learning.
@@kareno8634 How true😁
Nice, everything is fixed, the bread machine and dinner...!!! The best of two worlds...!!!😅😅😁😁.
😂😂😂😂👍🍕🍕🍕
Brilliant fix Mick, when you first tested the TRIAC I thought something was wrong then, and I’m assuming removing one of those leads and the motor didn’t turn may have been a red herring. The “open sauce” made me laugh, and the pizzas looked amazing too thank you!
Cheers Gary 👍
I loved this video - it combined the two things I hold most dear - electronics and food. I was positively drooling over that pizza at the end!! Nice one!
Cheers Alan. I wasn't too sure how well this one would go down, but all the comments seem positive Thanks again 👍🍕🍕
Pizza looks amazing,Great repair by the way
Thank you 👍🍕🍕🍕
electronic fix it chef? now thats a new one i like it 👍👍
Thanks 👍😂😂😂
This was great! One of my favorite videos so far!
Cheers 👍🙂🍕🍕
Thanks for making my Saturday!
Cheers 👍🙂
A man of all trades, Well done!!
Indeed 😂👍
Excellent as always. Well done mate
Cheers Matt 👍
Brilliant video, really enjoyed this, thank you for the content!
You're very welcome. Glad you enjoyed it 👍
A delicious repair! Congrats!
Cheers 👍🍕
Great repair AND cooking show! Looks great!
Thanks 👍🙂now you just have to go and give it a try making some 🍕🍕🍕👍
well done i watch a lot of these video its often that component
Thanks 👍
You are more entertaining than watching the TV thank you for the fantastic video what are you calling your next channel 😂mister chef
Wow, thanks😂😂😂👍
You're a man of many different talents. Very well done again.
Thank you very much 👍🍕
Interesting repair and a cookery lesson.
Cheers 👍🍕🍕
Solid repair and a lovely dinner. Cheers!
Cheers mate 👍
Well done Mick, a very tasty repair 😁
Yes it was 😂😂😂😂👍
Very nice fix
Cheers 👍
Can't wait for the book.
😂😂😂😂
Great video and a chef too 👍
Thanks 🙂👍🍕
Total repair and kitchen legend and yes im most hungry now
😂😂Thanks👍
It made me hungry, but I was already subscribed. Good video, thanks!
😂😂😂😂👍Thank you 🙂
Loved the pizza tutorial! 🍕
Thanks 🙂👍
Great content as always Mick 👌
Cheers Vince 👍I hope you have a go at making my pizzas! 🍕🍕🍕😂😂😂
@@BuyitFixit 😂 Well I'm not going to lie, after seeing it I now want one of those pizza stone base things, didn't know they existed!!!
Great repair as usual. I'm getting a whole new taste for electronics repair now. 😂
😂😂😂Thanks 👍
Fixes, funnies, food. All the best mick
😂😂😂😂👍
👍👍👍 Guter Job! Danke für das Video. LG
Danke 👍🙂
Hello from Denmark.. love watching this channel with your electric fault finding skills.. Always impressed how Talented shepherd.. bon appetit..
Thanks so much 👍
Well done, you certainly get a range of devices to fix. 5v regulator output via what looked to be two parallel diodes (measuring 0.6V drop) equals 4.4V supply, very odd. On return, will the owner have less dough than before?
That's what I was thinking. The VCC was about a diode drop lower than what the 7805 should be putting out.
Thanks Ralph👍, yes I have no idea why they used a 5v regulator and then dropped it via a diode to 4.4V very odd. Yes they will have less dough especially if they make a donation to the repair cafe 😂😂😂
@@BuyitFixit I was thinking (guessing) diode steering / isolation or a naff dropper to reduce gate voltages or the feed to the LDO which powers the quantum micro.
Made me hungry 🤤
😂😂😂🍕👍
Awe, Mick. I wanted to see you toss the dough in the air too. . . 😮😮😮 thanks for the amazing video.
I ain't no tosser 😂😂😂😂No seriously it would end up on the floor if I tried. Thanks mate 😂👍
Viewer from the U.S. Thinking " I wonder what Mick puts on his pizza?". I mean, here is the U.S. I thought we had thought of every way to come up with weird pizza toppings. Mick: " peperoni and sweet corn." Me: "What?" I now have to make a peperoni and sweet corn pizza since I can order pizza from probably 40 pizza restaurants that average 20-30 topping options and not one of them offers sweet corn as a topping. You just can not get this kind of stuff anywhere else.
Tuna and sweetcorn is another common pizza type in the UK, also chicken and sweetcorn.
great fix as always, must eat now though!!!
😂😂😂😂Cheers 👍🍕
My old man uses his for pizza dough exclusively. The key to a good dough is a rest in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours before using it. Fabulous. Aside from pizza dough, it's one of the largest appliances in any kitchen. I simply don't have the room for one. I also gave up bread, so it's just a temptation.
Hmmm someone else mentioned about 24H in the fridge, I might give that a go 👍
Had a similar issue with a range hood. By itself the light would come on dim and slowly get brighter. Everything else in the hood was done with relays, but for some reason they used a triac for the light. No need as it wasn't dimmable, just on/off. Replaced it with a water pump triac from a washing machine board. Problem solved.
For shore going to give that ‘Open Sauce’ recipe a go. Always a great watch. Thanks as always for sharing.
👍
Cheers
Pete' New Zealand.
Cheers Pete, hopefully you'll like it 👍🍕
I'm hungry that pizza looked so good. I might try your receipe for the sause I need to fix our breadmaker too first though as it does something similar I think from memory been a while since I last tried using it. I like that you often use/demo the things that you fix if you can.
Cheers 👍Yes, I do try to demo use things when I remember. I actually bought a Panasonic breadmaker a while back from eBay to do pretty much this exact video. Unfortunately when it arrived I couldn't find a fault with it...
I really like your methods. Very logical progression of troubleshooting. Also, I'm definitely going to try your recipe for the "open sauce". I may however add a few more lines of code😂.
Thanks 😂😂👍You can also delete lines, change a few variables or even try optimising the code until you get what you like! 😂🍕🍕👍
I thought for sure it was a closed relay. Good stuff.
Cheers 👍🍕
I use a similar recipe to make Naan bread. Fry them in a cast iron pan. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for sharing too. My former business partner said the same about making Naan bread 👍
Class act
Cheers 👍
Yes please!! That pizza looked great
It tasted great too! 😂😂👍🍕🍕🍕
I make my own pizza too. Every bit as good as a pizza place, but a 5th of the cost. Never thought of using a bread maker though. You're giving me ideas now.
Nice 👍🍕🍕
No pizza place but an electronic wizard who can fix anything. If I had to choose, I wouldn't go for the pizza
Depends how hungry you are.. 😂😂😂🍕
Well done for all your skills, the voltage regulator rarely goes away as they provide a linear voltage. Relays and triacs suffer a lot, especially in machines like this, and triacs can be difficult to measure even outside the circuit, I had problems with them 🙃 Good luck in your future work.
Thank you 👍🙂
Wow..... Electronics master AND Chef all in one LOL
Cheers Fred 👍
Open sauce looks good. Bloody pesky triacs!! Good fix. I've got a bread maker. Cost me $10 AU$ at a garage sale. It works great.
Cheers 👍
Now you have to open a new channel.. BUY IT COOK IT! 😂 great video as always my friend.
😂😂😂😂Cheers 👍
That repair certainly had it's perks and looks tasty too. I'm not surprised you can't get a takeaway delivery, but my wife and I would have your pizza over takeaway any day. Well done with the fix and thanks for sharing.
Cheers Brian 👍Yes everyone that has had one of my pizzas said they were great! I made them when former business partner and his wife stopped over one time and he wanted me to write down the recipe and said they were fantastic!
@@BuyitFixit I'm not surprised. It's not every Man who cooks, or should I say knows how to cook. I used to love to make a curry. Can't do it now because of osteoarthritis.
Cheers Brian, sorry to hear about your osteoarthritis. I'd not really done much cooking in the past until we moved up here. But since moving here I've tried cooking Chinese food, Quiche, cakes and all kinds of things. A few channels I watch on here are Ziangs food workshop (Chinese), Cupcake Jemma (awesome chocolate cupcakes, and carrot cake), and John Kirkwood who's recipes I've used a bit for quiche etc (he's got a similar accent to me as he's from the Northeast too!)
I have an older, downmarket version of that bread maker I bought at a thrift store for $10. It was pretty grotty, so I took it apart and gave it a thorough cleaning before I used it. No possessions to report yet...
Well if it becomes "possessed" now you know what the problem is likely to be 😂😂👍
I loves my breadmaker, got a Brevile BR03, not the most fantastic in the world but makes superb french bread and I use the dough for making rolls and the jam function to knock up some jam (avoid blueberry, Asda's had a load in reduced so I bought the lot, knocked it into jam and discovered what happens when one consumes too many blueberries... searing eye of the needle all the way so now I just make up marmalades and no more molten button of shame)
Nice 👍I've not tried making jam in a breadmaker, although I did make strawberry jam and some cherry jam in a pan before. I think I added a bit of Port into the cherry jam too!
Good fix, Mick. I'll be over for some pizza!
😂😂😂😂😂👍
Another sound job, and you’re a chef as well .Mike Ramsay 😋😋🍕🍕
😂😂Cheers Sean 👍
That seems like a mildly terrifying failure mode.
😂😂😂😂👍
I could off bet it was a stuck relay contact, but you nailed it with the relay driver. Good recipe but corn on a pizza??? Not for me, mate.😊😊
I was leaning into that one as well !
Cheers 👍 Tuna & Sweetcorn is a popular pizza in takeaways, also chicken and sweetcorn or BBQ www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/308470697
Well, i know what im having for dinner today, cheers Mick! 🍺🍕
Hope you enjoy 👍🍕
LMAO. That is exactly what we used out bread machine for. Pizza dough FTW LOL. Great content there big guy.
Cheers mate 👍🍕🍕😂
now i want pizza. fortunately i live in italy and is not a problem to get a fabulous pizza here
Nice 👍 hopefully it's as good or better than mine 🙂
@@BuyitFixit fresh and local ingredients. Pizza here can be stratosferic if you find a good guy that know how to prepare it.
Great repair and great pizza. btw, Sweet corn on pizza is delicious 🌽🍕
Thanks 🙂👍🍕🍕🍕
As soon as you switched it on I said to myself "it's the triac" strange readings though.I was wondering if the L & R are left rotation right rotation of the motor. I also volunteer at our local repair cafe in South wales, really enjoy it. Have had some really good challenges.
Yes my initial thoughts were the triac too, but when I tested it with the meter it seemed to measure OK and not shorted like I was expecting it to be. I thought L and R were left and right rotation but that doesn't really make sense as it only seems to rotate clockwise due to the shape of the mixer paddle (perhaps the board is used in another device) or as someone else suggested it might me Low and Regular? which seemed a slightly odd naming convention. Yes we've had some fun stuff too. I remember the Stihl Bluetooth headset I did on here (another job I brought home to look at). That was pretty much a total rebuild!
I've never had corn on pizza. I'll have to try it.
In Mexico, they make corn ice cream (helado de maìz). I was surprised at how good it was.
I've never heard of corn ice cream! A lot of pizza shops around here do things like tuna & sweetcorn, or Chicken / BBQ chicken and sweetcorn.
Saturday is not a Saturday without a evening fix of buy it fix it
Cheers👍
Wow so easy to make, I have a bread maker and have never used it lol, now I am inspired AND HUNGRY :P Good guess with the Triac, I was suspecting the relay being stuck on (maybe it was causing that?)
Glad you feel inspired 👍hope you have a go and make them. I'm sure you'll love them 🙂The relay seems to be for the heater not the motor. The other relay I think controls the solenoid.
Hi! Each video i've meant to say how Grand to have Repair Cafe'! _with my rambling, i forgot._
Hadn't searched US; Some States have Many, some -0,- Fla has 1, not close or started.
Never toss, Fix is only way, i'd rather have old than new. Now need 'Cure' to end pile of fix.
Alright *Chef Fixit,* how does recipe work? "Strong" bread flour? ok, new name for me.
"Room temp" H2O, really? [maker temp warmth w\ sugar starts action not H2O] _hmm_ I did by hand, don't want Brick, like my bread, [wheat] has turned out at times.
Open Sauce special touch. hold that cut, I'll be right there. : }
Triac added to list, not sure of measurement meaning, but i'll listen on. *Thanks Much!*
Cheers 👍 the recipe is just from the manual for my bread maker. I've just used plain flour too and it works fine. I think the "strong" bread flour contains more gluten. Thanks again 🙂

"Making pizza with Mike!" Never seen a pizza with sweet corn on it! We never know what we will learn on here. "Open sauce" made me laugh.
Thanks for watching...the pizza dough rise! 😂
Cheers 👍🍕🍕 You can get tuna & sweetcorn, and chicken and sweetcorn in the UK in a lot of takeaway places.
The pizza part is awesome man
Cheers 👍Glad you liked it 🍕🍕🍕🍕
@@BuyitFixit Cheers👍
"open sauce" LOL ! awesome repair but for me the 'takeaway' was that ball of dough, I couldn't believe it worked ! almost worth buying one for that alone 'aint seen nowt like it' I wonder if you're old enough to know who Graham Kerr is ?.........cheers!!!
I certainly remember the Galloping Gourmet!
I also remember he always seemed to be drinking during his show.
@@pileofstuffYeah ! lol !
😂😂Cheers Andymouse. I've not heard of Graham Kerr before.

Got to have the "ZA"
👍🍕🍕🍕🍕😂
Circuits with recipes... I am in.
😂😂😂😂👍
Hi. I wonder if you could have used something like a Megger to test the triac, that may have revealed it breaking down under high voltage. ( I presume the motor was mains driven?)
I'm not sure Tim, yes the motor was mains driven.
damn. didn't know the bread proofed in there and everything. now i need one :
Yes, the one I've been using makes the dough rise 2x but takes 1h30. This one seemed to only do one rise and 55m.
Interesting, it looks like a Panasonic clone in some respects. The Panasonic does annoy in that it won't start mixing dough until it has raised the pan temperature which can take an extra twenty or so minutes.
Hmmm. My bread maker doesn't do that, only after it's mixed it and making it rise. Although mine does the rise part 2x and takes 1hr 30m whereas this one only does the rise 1x and takes 55m
Nice one! Thanks. Did you really put a whole tube of tomato paste in your sauce? How about a little basil. Your beautiful sheep will probably like that as well :)
Cheers, it is "open sauce" you can adapt it to how you like 😂😂😂
@@BuyitFixit 😊 Great! I'll fork a blanch on githob.
Man, I want a slice...
Thanks 🙂👍Here's two 🍕🍕
That's strange, I have new triacs where a1 and a2 show about 30odd meg ohm slowly dropping.
I've not really fixed much with faulty triacs before. I was expecting a dead short or such. Anyway more experience gained for the next time I encounter such a problem 🙂👍
Could you please run the faulty Triac thru your component tester and see if it could detect the fault?
Unfortunately I already binned the faulty triac. It was a couple of weeks ago when I looked at this.
winner winner Pizza dinner 🤞😉😍
😂😂😂😂🍕🍕🍕
You should replace the yellow capacitor dropper. These are many times why these appliances die, it supplies the 5V for the controller, and I bet this is why the 4.4V and the display was so dim I had to rewind to se it flashing in the beginning of the video. Otherwise great troubleshooting, never seen a triac doing that.
I don't think this uses a capacitor dropper, as there was a small transformer in the bottom of the bread maker that seems to supply AC to the small board. I've had capacitor dropper failure before on a couple of things. One was a digistat boiler RF thermostat and another was on an upright freezer (which was a repair video I did on here with some LED rechargeable lights). The low voltage seems to be from the output of the 5V regulator then being put through a diode (voltage drop 0.6V) which give 4.4V. I'm not sure why they did that though...
@@BuyitFixit Thanks for reply. I thought the capacitor was dedicated for the micro like an insulated PS. What is is used for? Suppression of Triac switching noise maybe?
Open Sauce! Yes! Now I see that I do "knead" a Bread / Pizza Dough maker. :-)
😂😂😂😂Nice one Terry 👍🍕🍕
You were getting 4.5v on VDD and VCC because the 5v regulators output went through a diode before heading to the ribbon cable.
Yes 0.6V voltage drop across the diode. I'm not sure why they would have done that though?
I've never heard of corn on a pizza here in the US.
Common in the UK. Takeaways usually do things like Tuna and Sweetcorn, or Chicken and Sweetcorn, but you can even get them from the supermarket like Chicken BBQ www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/308470697
@@BuyitFixit - OK!
What was the solenoid for? Perhaps one of the other functions - to lock the lid down? Well done and enjoy the pizza!
Thanks 👍🙂🍕🍕🍕The solenoid was for the "extras". In the lid is a compartment where you can put things like fruit or nuts inside. This gets released via the solenoid after the dough has been mixed to make things like fruit bread or bread with nuts or seed in etc.
