I have the 1193 bread maker and I have loved and used it for years. Last winter, we built a new wall cabinet and made an enclosed shelf for the bread machine above a new wall oven. The shelf is open in front, but enclosed on top and bottom, and on both sides. Several inches of air space all around, we thought it would be ok. About a month ago, it stopped in the middle of the mixing cycle making bread, and would not restart. The digital panel seems to be fine. The words and numbers appear as always, but when I push the start button, it gives me 3 short beeps, and nothing happens. Has it just worn out, did we burn something out by enclosing it, and more to the point, can it be repaired? We absolutely love it, and if it can not be repaired, is there another on this planet that is available...cause we have hunted for a month, and find one!! Please help. Thanks, Vicki Zimmerman

Hi, I recommend that you move your bread machine from its exalted place of honor, just to test it and see if it is getting too hot to function. Move it to the countertop and try making a loaf of bread in it. If it stops again in the mixing cycle then its time to get a new machine. If it doesn't shut down and keeps going then you know that the enclosed space you created for it is causing the problem. I don't have a 1193 in stock but I have a variety of other machines in stock including a Toastmaster (different model #)! Hopefully you won't need to replace. Please share with me what happens when you do your test.... good luck!
