Mr. Coffee BVMC-PC05BL2-NP Repair

The Mr. Coffee BVMC-PC05BL2-NP is a 5-cup (25 oz.) programmable drip-brew coffeemaker. Its two main functions are "Brew Now" (which immediately begins brewing coffee) and "Brew Later" (which allows you to set a time for the coffeemaker to brew coffee in the future). Additionally, it has the Grab-a-Cup Auto Pause feature, which allows you to take a cup of coffee before brewing is done. It also has the 2-Hour Auto Shut-Off feature to automatically turn the coffeemaker off for the user.

This coffeemaker is sold in the USA & Canada. The price ranges from $21.99-$39.99 at the stores directed to from the official site. It also sells for $39.99 on Amazon.

The there are several recurring issues with this coffeemaker. Multiple users have had error codes appear (Ec6, Ec2, etc). Mr. Coffee Consumer Care responds to all of these issues with the suggestion that it means the coffeemaker is receiving insufficient power, and that switching outlets or unplugging the machine and plugging it back in should resolve the issue (although some users have noted that this does not resolve it). Users have also mentioned the brew function ceasing to work. Another repeatedly mentioned issue is the coffeemaker shutting off either before the 2 hour auto shut off should occur or while brewing. Users also mention their issues getting replacement components (particularly for the glass carafe, which is notably breakable).

A similar model of coffeemaker is the Mr. Coffee 5-Cup Mini Brew Switch Coffee Maker, which also has the Grab-a-Cup Auto Pause feature but does not have the brew later or auto shut-off features. The Mr. Coffee® 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker is another very similar model, but with a larger capacity, a 4 hour instead of 2 hour auto shut-off feature, and an LED display.

The Mr. Coffee BVMC-PC05BL2-NP is 9.7" L x 6.4" W x 10"H. The model number is imprinted on the bottom of the machine in the 4th line of the top rectangle. The machine comes in black or black & chrome (the black & chrome color variant is shown here). It has 4 buttons on the base. From left to right, these read BREW LATER, HR, MIN, BREW NOW. These buttons distinguish it from other Mr. Coffee 5-cup coffee makers. Above the HR and MIN buttons there is a time display. The carafe has markings of 10, 15, 20, and 25 oz, also marked as 2, 3, 4, and 5 (to convey "cups" of coffee). This distinguishes it from other Mr. Coffee programmable coffee makers of different capacities. Mr. Coffee is written across the front of the top section and the front of the carafe.

Note: this coffeemaker was not designed to be easily disassembled. There are plastic components that snap together and are essentially impossible to take apart without breaking the outer shell by force.
