LEDs Light Tube Upgrade Guide

Items Included

1. Pin Removal Tool
2. Metal Housing x3  - ⚠️ Only Use If Needed
3. Teflon Insert
4. LED + Light Tube Assemblies
   1. 1 Amber LEDs: fluid level - ⚠️ Contains a ring terminal connection
   2. 2 Green LEDs: brew and steam temp

Step 1: Disassembly

Follow this video to remove the side panel on the side with the LEDs.

Step 2: Determine if you can reuse metal housings

• Try to remove the existing LED out of the existing housing by pulling it down from the metal housing using pliers (see picture below)
• If you’re able to remove the LEDs from the existing housing you can proceed to Step 3.
• ⚠️ If the plastic LED holder breaks during this step you’ll have to remove your existing metal housing.
• ⚠️ If your existing metal housing is loose in your top plate you can remove it and use the new metal housing.

Step 3: Install Teflon Insert

• Now you should have just metal housings in the top plate 
  • Existing metal housings if you were able to reuse them or new ones if you weren’t
• Align the teflon insert under the top plate 
• Press each metal housing through the insert - leaving it loose for adjustment

Step 5: Ensuring A Snug Fit

• Once the light tubes are inserted, press the insert up as snug as possible and push all the housings down to create a flush fit on top. Note the teflon insert is snug up against the top plate in the pictures below

• Crimp the metal housing - using pliers - to get a snug fit.

Step 6: Wire Routing

• Feed the wires through the designated slot on the PCB bracket

If your machine does not have a slot in the bracket tuck the wires between the bracket and the boiler.

If your machine has a slot in the this bracket feed your wires through the slot.

Step 7: Installing Wire Terminals/Ends

• Push the wire terminals of each led into their correct slot in accordance to the wiring diagram

• Amber (Low Fluid) LED has a ring terminal that is located under the Ground #7 Green wire. See green arrow in picture below.

• Plug the 18-pin connector back into the PCB

Step 8: Reassembly
