2. If the brew water flows but is not hot refer to the On But Not Heating section of this article.
Turn the hot water function on for the steam wand to test for flow.
1. If nothing comes through refer to the Only Flow From Brew Head section of this article.
2. If water does come through try setting the machine to steam mode again and testing for steam. Running the hot water function can help remove blockages in the steam wand assembly.
Check the steam knob on the top of the unit. This knob should only turn about halfway. If the knobs can spin almost 360°, or can spin continuously, then there is a part out of position. There is a part that is called a steam cam which needs to be aligned. Follow the instructions below to reset the steam cam.
Unplug the machine and remove the top to check for any loose or disconnected wires, and resecure these connections.
If nothing else looks wrong then the steam thermostat has probably failed in will need to be replaced. Instructions for replacing the thermostat can be found in the video on the right.
