Out of nowhere, my Ninja cp301 (similar to the unit I selected for this post) does not recognize the tea brewing basket. When I place the orange coffee brewing basket in the unit, it works fine.

* “burped” the unit by turning it upside down and lightly striking it with the palm of my hand.

* Cleaned the unit with a paper towel. Removed a lot of buildup from where the hot water drips down into the brew basket.

* cleaned the tea brew basket and examined it for damage

Symptoms:
+
* Cleaned the tea brew basket and examined it for damage
+
* Consulted the owner’s manual for troubleshooting tips

'''Symptoms:'''
When I place the tea brewing basket in the unit, the machine’s lights do not indicate “Tea”. Pressing start, on any setting, causes 5 beeps and both the Tea and Coffee light indicators flash. (This is also what happens with no brew basket in the machine)
The coffee brew basket works fine. The machine just suddenly stopped recognizing the tea brew basket for no apparent reason. I had just used the machine to make tea about 3 hours before I noticed the failure.

My question: How does the machine “know” which basket is inserted? There is something about my tea brew basket that isn’t triggering the proper sensors or something. I doubt running the cleaning function will help, but I am trying that next.

I would greatly appreciate any help or advice on how to get things back in order.
