Reply byHi,
I didn't solve this problem up today. However, I disassembled the machine and have found that there are distructed one of the thermoelectric cooling elements (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_cooling). Therefore, I think that the problem is in it. I just must to change these element on onther working. But I have no spare parts. So, I think to buy one more machine for the parts.
Cheers.
