Ryko Emotion 3 - Hot Wax Boiler

[Snowkiwi]

I had a recurring but intermittant fault on a Ryko Emotion 3 machine in that it would occasionally blow one of the fuses, 1FU1, eventually traced it to the fact that when the machine ran a wash containing the Hot Wax component, water was cascading down the Hot Wax boiler and getting into the wiring on the three phase element. The water was coming from the top of the Hot Wax boiler through a red cap fitted with a lead seal. I am thinking that this is a Pressure Relief Valve. It does not appear to be put back on! Is there something under the Red cap that is missing? It is very awkward to access and difficult to see. Any help would be appreciated! Does this assembly need replacing or can it be refitted once it has activated, also what is the best way to access?

The Emotion 3 is not a Ryko machine. The Emotion was manufactured by Fia29 in Italy. Although they are no longer in business, I would recommend you reach out to Croma service as several of their employees had originally worked at Fia. They can be reached at service@croma-croma.com
