PC trouble!!!

[Halex]

My pc is not working properly. It has done this before & I put it down to user error.

Making soup for lunch, it gets hot but doesnt count down, boils away, steam comes out then beeps to say that it is finished.

Anyone else have this problem?

I've had that problem a few times hally and turned it off and then started again and it was fine. Good luck.

[Halex]

Wonder, its do e it a few times now, it burnt a curry which I had to throw out.

I have re-started it & its fine now.

Rang the company & they said they had never heard of this problem, so I am taking it in to them tomorrow.

Just a nuisance.

i still haven't got around to taking my electric one back, really need to do it. I'm very happy with the stove top one and there's no chance of any electrical problems.

Hope you work it out Hally

[Halex]

Thanks Yvette, I really need it for all the cooking I am doing for my friend.

It shoukdbt be pot luck whether its going to come to pressure & count down. Interesting what they say tomorrow.

No it shouldn't Hally especially since it is new I would want to find a solution

I am sure you have checked this, but is the lid seal correctly positioned?

[Halex]

Yes I did check, thats why when I first started to use it I thought it must human error.

Of course it will work fine when I take it in to them

[obbie]

Hally I would take it back and swap it.

[Halex]

Taking it tomorrow. Hope they just swap it over.

Hally I read this pc as your computer and then couldn't understand why it was getting hot and having steam come out. Drr. Then it clicked pressure cooker.

Halex,
Do you have the New Wave one ? I had the same problem.  The floating switchy thing that you turn to pressure seemed to be faulty on mine. It was a real knack to get it to stay otherwise too much steam would escape and cause it to not reach pressure (and depending on what was in it cause the contents to dry out). I rang New Wave and they sent me a new lid but haven't tried the new lid yet.  So if it is a New Wave, it's not a new problem to them !

[Halex]

No mine is the cuisineart pc.

Seems to e a common problem. Hope they replace whatever part it is ie a new lid or a whole new pc.

Cookie your funny, if our computer was doing that I think  I would evacuate, lol.
