It has a short. Mine did the same. If under 3 years old cuisinart will replace for $10 shipping charge. If out of warranty, cheaper to buy a new one, than have that one fixed. Call 1-800-726-0190
BE SURE TO CHECK THE OFF TIME SETTING. IT MAY BE ON 0 MINUTES. IT CAN BE SET FROM 0 TO 4 HRS.
There is an "Auto Off" programing capability with this machine that may be the culprit if everything else is working fine. Check the user manual to reset it or disable the feature if it presents a problem.
UNPLUG
DISASSEMBLE:
(2 screws in top under caps, lift whole top off, 4 small screws, slice through caulk bead with exacto knife, pull front control panel horizontally straight out),
CLEAN:
carefully clean contacts if switch is bad, unplug/replug wire harness connector several times to clean contacts, scrape through conformal coating and corrosion gently from circuit board between adjacent pins but don't scrape through the green PCB solder mask and if desired re coat with silicone caulk
REASSEMBLE
CHECK WATER FILTER, REPLACE CARTRIDGE

Here is the basic troubleshooting for the Cuisinart coffee makers:
Make sure all baskets are in proper place – especially if unit is beeping.
Do not use a paper and a gold-tone or other permanent filter at the same time.
Unplug for LONGER THAN 15 full minutes to reset.
Clean by brewing 2 oz of distilled white vinegar/2 oz water.
If these methods fail, the unit probably requires replacement – call Cuisinart as they have a longer-than-standard warranty.

same problem, nothing lights up. It is off and stays off. It will randomly turn back on and work for a couple of days.

Well, you could try unplugging for an hour. Sometimes that helps, but these have been having a lot of problems (but don't ask their customer service that, they can't admit it but I'm pretty sure they all know it!). I would say call customer service anyway if it's under 3 years old (800-726-0190) after you've unplugged it and let them know what's going on (model and serial # are both located on the bottom of the unit, stamped in the black part). If it's under warranty they can offer you a replacement and from what I hear Cuisinart has been getting in new coffee on demand units (like the one you have) that have fixed the problems. They're on back order right now though, so there will be a wait. Other than that, I would say you don't have many options, unless the store is willing to take it back, because this one is pretty much a goner. Not the first time I've seen it. :(
