Most of the time, you can't even get those things repaired. If they do, they generally just replace the defective part.
I thought, I have a Mr. Coffee with the timer board, but it turns out to be a Black & Decker Smart Brew. I'm going to take it apart and see if the board is the same and get back to you.
