I highly doubt any major corporate franchise is going to risk repairing any of their own industrial machines or have a 3rd party do it, without a warranty.

Taylor already said McDonalds franchises are free to fix the machines themselves but it breaks the warranty. This is usually for a good reason.



This isn't even a question of repair. Mostly what they need is a tool that gives them human readable error messages so they can correct whatever minor issue that they'd be told to correct with a service call.


As others mention most of the problems seem to be tank is too full or not full enough to complete a heating cycle. Most consumer grade machines would just display that directly or at least list the error code in the manual, the McDonalds machines don't.
