Thanks guys. I've tried cleaning out the gaps and used a really long screwdriver. Really don't want to round them from excessive slippage. I've put it on ebay and noted that I couldn't undo the bottom burr.

Any tricks on how to get these screws out. Very stiff. Don't want to round them but screw driver is slipping even with a lot of downward force. Thanks guys! Its a Compak k3.

It also thankfully implies it will be cheaper.

I'll take the tamper.

Also not sure what a lockbar is but will try to look it up.

Thanks so much for the rapid response. For now I only have a new sensor, plumbers tape, adjustable wrench. You reckon impact wrench is a must?

Got round to finally sourcing a sensor from BB. Please help me figure out how to access the sensor to remove. What do I need to [email protected]

Sorry I've been awol for a bit...changing phones etc. Did you sort this?

There seems to have been some leakage in the past. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

I think its a faulty probe. The brew boiler is not heating up when the pid is showing 140. It's jumping around which makes me also think that its a faulty probe. I've inspected the wiring too. I've disconnected the plastic connecter and reconnected. The connection into the pid looks quite secure. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

I don't think it is set to F because the steam boiler is reaching 120 with 1 bar pressure and 125 with 1.5 bar...and steaming beautifully. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Yes actually now that ive been playing with it, steam boiler is working fine. Its actually the brew boiler not heating up. Its now showing error code A2 i think. The PId reading for steam boiler is perfect but all over the place for brew boiler. Could it be temp probe? Showing 148 degree celcius for brew boiler bit its barely warm.
