This is my third machine I’ve received from Keurig support and it’s still happening. I’ve done all the needle cleaning, reseting, descaling, and many other fixes. The unit is not even 3 months old.

I’m just at a loss of what to do because I don’t see many people having the same problem. I’m also sick and tired of wasting perfectly good K Cups! Anybody have ideas how to permanently fix this?

EDIT & SOLUTION: I've been able to resolve the issue using a work around. This is not a fix and I don't know why Keurig hasn't fixed it after years of this happening.

When using a milk based K Cup, press it into the bottom by hand so the K Cup is punctured. Pull it up and rotate 90º and close the lid. This gives the K Cup two holes and much less pressure. It has worked perfectly since I've been doing this.

My grinder is not similar to the ones in the instructions. It's the same model, but it looks different inside. The blades are fasten with something that looks like a plastic nut on top. I´ve tried pulling on the blades, but it doesen´t seem to work. I´ve also tried to undo the nut, my tools are causing damage to the nut.

Do anyone know if this is a nut, or pulling harder is the solution? And if so, do anyone know if it is a right or left threaded nut (normal or lynx)?

My problem with the grinder is that the blades wont turn. The motor is working, but of some reason, either the rotor in the motor or the blade assy is stuck.

Thanks!

I found mentions of the motor not being properly aligned.

The official FAQ states: The motor might not be in the correct position. Check if the water tank is filled and if the drip tray is in place. Turn the appliance OFF and then ON again. Then simultaneously press the button for My-Coffee and the on/off button for more than 2 seconds. The motor will move into the correct position. Insert the brewing unit again and check that it is correctly locked in position.

However, this proposed solution did not reset the motor position in my case.

I found that the locking handle of the brewing unit moves a metal lever.

This metal lever engages a button in the machine.

By carefully pressing this button (i used the handle of a small spoon), the motor reset to the correct position.

Long story short: I don't have a question, and just wanted to post this here for future reference.

Model Number: 501015

I have held on to this product in the hope I can fix it + bring it back to life. The signal is working when I plug it in at the mains. It appears the motor just won't operate as it should. I've looked inside the lid but it seems impossible to get beyond its exterior. Can you suggest if it's worth keeping hold of or not?

Thank you in advance

My Kenwood Chef XL is leaking oil from the gearbox.

According to this answer (Oil leak top of machine), the grease in the gear box might have dissolved to oil, and as the gear box seems to be unsealed, that oil is leaking. If that's the diagnose, then the way to fix it would be, to either replace the gear box (which sounds appealingly easy), or to open that gearbox, clean it, and put grease in again.

Unfortunately, the technically easier way of purchasing a new gearbox seems to not be simple; they seem to be hard to get, and also not cheap. So, what remains, is the pathway to open it up, clean, re-grease, and (omg) re-assemble in a way that it works.

Ignoring my fear of having to re-assemble those potentially millions of tiny cogwheels that might await me under the hood, I firstly wonder now, how to open the gearbox: I can see 6 phillips screws, but two of them are hidden under a big white plastic cogwheel. The gap between the cogwheel and the screw head is only about 5mm, so not much chance to get a screwdriver in between. I have carefully tried to pull it up, but it sits pretty tight, and I have little desire to break it.

Does anyone have a hint?

I am troubleshooting a professional coffee machine (Melitta C35) control board based on the Freescale ColdFire MCF5232CVM100 (BGA package). The system is currently stuck at the initial "Please wait" screen and does not proceed to the main menu.

Hardware Details & Measurements:

·         MCU: MCF5232CVM100 (ColdFire V2 Core).

·         Flash: cFeon EN29LV160 (TSOP-48).

·         Power Rails:

o    VDD (Core): Measured 1.6V on the micro-capacitors surrounding the MCF5232.

o    VDDIO/Periphery: Stable 3.3V found across the board.

o    Analog/Other: 5V rail is present.

·         RTC Battery: Measured 3.29V (stable).

·         Debug Interfaces: The board provides a standard 26-pin ColdFire BDM header AND a 10-pin (2x5) Mini-BDM connector.

·         Service Port: External 9-pin RS-232 (DCE, Female).

Symptoms:

1.    On power-up, the display initializes and shows "Please wait".

2.    The board has a Reset button that toggles the 3.3V line, but the MCU remains in the same "Please wait" state after reset.

3.    I measured -5.6V on the TX pin of the RS-232 port, which indicates that the line driver is powered and the UART is likely initialized by the bootloader.

Questions for the community:

1.    Given that the display shows "Please wait", is it safe to assume the MCU has successfully initialized the FlexBus and started executing code from the external Flash?

2.    What are the typical reasons for a ColdFire V2 to hang at this stage? Could it be a checksum mismatch in the Flash or a timeout waiting for a peripheral (I2C/SPI)?

3.    Does the presence of both 10-pin and 26-pin BDM headers imply any specific debugging priority? Is one more suitable for a USBDM interface to dump the cFeon Flash?

4.    Are there any known "trap" states or Double Bus Fault indicators I can check via the BDM pins without a full debugger?

Thank you, Alex
