Anybody know what tools it takes to take apart a ResMed Elite II Cpap? im getting error code 1019.. #nosleep
Ive see a few suggestions online about using a hair dryer on it, or just leaving it unplugged. But i think non of that is gonna fix the issue. error code 1019 says it got water in the unit somehow from the humidifier. :(

ResMed's machines come with a 2 year warranty, and all repairs are supposed to be handled through their vendors (the DME) or home health care provider who set you up with the machine. If they give you trouble, call the ResMed customer service line at: 800-424-0737.
Wish I could provide more help, but this looks like a problem that only a ResMed repair facility can fix. Only other thing you might want to try is to disconnect the humidifier and hose from the machine, take all filters out, unplug it, and let the CPAP machine dry out completely (maybe in front of a fan) for several hours, then start it up and see if the problem persists. Mostly likely, this will not solve the issue, however, but it might be worth a try.
Tora, contact ResMed. Do NOT mention anything about water or humidifier or anything like that. You'll shoot yourself in the foot by mistake and you'll regret it.
Another resource is Apria Healthcare. They are respiratory techs who sell DME equipment. They have locations throughout Indiana.
