Philips Senseo II 7810 HD Water Level Sensor Magnet

소개

The magnet for the water level sensor floats up in the water tank and shuts off the machine when there is no water in it. This magnet is always in the water and will corrode over the years. The sensor then no longer works and the status LED flashes quickly even though there is water. that would be indicative of having to change the magnet.
