    My housing is plastic, and was just held on by clips holding the outer part to the base, I gently pried the housing away and lifted the housing off. It’s a Capresso model 560

    Mine is as well. I tried digging the “rubber washers” out but it was only scratching plastic.

    There are 5 areas you can slide a slim flathead into and gently wiggle to get the casing to slide out from the base. Be firm yet gentle.

    My unit has a plastic case and a two-prong plug, so there is no ground wire.

For those interested, I took my Capresso apart and it's a "Faucigny Instruments MI3 Swtich Timer", information on it here: https://www.fcsgroupe.com/en/component/s...

However, I'm having trouble finding any to purchase.

On another note, on my Capresso, it seems like the issue wasn't the timer, but the plastic dial to turn the timer had broken inside where it slides over the spindle of the timer gear. The plastic collar on the dial had split, so was no longer gripping the spindle to turn it. I repaired it with some plastic cement. I used an elastic band wound very tightly around it to hold it in place while it dried, and just left that on there when I put the dial back on to hopefully give it some extra support.

It has held through a few uses, but in my experience plastic repairs of that type that have to deal with pressure don't tend to last very long, but here's hoping.

Sorry, but this is useless as the timer switch is not available
