Bought second hand one year ago but according to serial code plaque
fabricated 11 years ago. My bread making Unold 8695 delivered good bread
for more than one year now.
Beginning with last week begun not switching on immediately. One minute
delay became one hour today. Text on the small display is clearly dimmed.
Last week reset itself twice along the program. Eventually being able to
complete.
Producer amazingly has a spare “power control board”. But sales ended in
2020 and part may be even older. I am not sure it would solve.
I was thinking it may be an old capacitor. But I am not very good at
electronics. Suggestions? Thanks for sharing.
meter?
Unfortunately I do not have an ESR meter available. I know a hw repair shop
though. One limitation I could foresee for who may help to assess is
control board is not easily accessible. Could be seen here:

I actually used the video above as guide to replace the transmission belt
of this machine before. It was obviously not designed for easy disassemble.
Most painful part is re-assembling it.
Few more tidbits. Yesterday I kept the machine connected to the mains for
two hours before actually using it. One hour and it finally went on. One
more I loaded it and went through the program without a hitch. This unlike
the previous occasion when I operated it only minutes after switching on
and had to be re-started twice.
Also I mentioned yesterday text on the small display was quite faint right
after switching on. It was sharper and easily read by the end of the
program.
