If I recall, there's one of those safety thingies before the
pressurestat. Look for gizmos on the boilers with two wires and tiny red
buttons in the center. Try pushing those buttons down. That's pretty
much my first step in any 'something not getting power' scenarios.
I may be misremembering, of course. Trace the p-state input back and
check the voltage at anything it's passing through.

By "the board" I assume you mean the Giemme, yes? Or the PID or

Either way, to my thinking, if you have power into the Giemme, and no
power out, that seems like the source of the issue. Are you sure
you're measuring the right wire/terminal on the p-stat, i.e. the input
side and not the output side? (I only ask because....ahem....I've
*heard* of people making this mistake....of course it wasn't me...).
Also, are you checking the p-stat on the output side, thinking the
p-stat is good, I.e. could it be bad and therefore only input voltage
tells you anything?
Are the wires to the correct terminals on the Giemme? The replacement
is slightly different than the original, and the numbers do not all
match up the same as the old one. There is a diagram if you need it.
If that's all fine, perhaps ask WLL if there's a warranty on the
Giemme board--I recently found a guy here in WA that rebuilds them,
but it's as expensive as getting a new one (about $75). Pretty unusual
for one to fail that fast.
Keep us posted.
Best,

A little more info-
It does have power going in to the control board. When I turned it
on, it filled the boilers. Took almost the whole reservoir, so
assume they are both full. Then after the pump kicked off it didn't
switch over to heating.

working on getting this new to me brewtus going.
I am working my way through the WLL video about checking
electronic systems, and I am not getting power to the pressure stat.
Is it likely the whole board, or is there something else I can
check in there. The board on this machine was replaced back in
November or so.
Thanks
