I had the same problem with my Mr Coffee ISX23. I took it apart and found a little chunk of something was stuck in an in-line check valve from the fresh water reservoir to the heater thingee. After disconnnecting the hose from both ends it slid out of the hose I pulled the little black (maybe rubber) thing out and reassembled it. Works great. Be sure to replace the check valve oriented the right way. I tested this by blowing on it.

    This was the same problem I had with my Mr. Coffee JWX31. I little piece (1/2" x 1/2") of paper towel was enough to clog the inline valve. The coffee maker would mostly produce steam, would take forever to finish the brew cycle, and coffee was awful. Removing the base took a little work, since 2 or the 6 screws are hex "security" screws. Remember the direction of the valve when removing it from the rubber intake hose, it won't work backwards. Now my machine is good as new.

This, at least for me, is a sign of hard water build up. Put a clean filter in the coffee basket, add 1/4 cup of CLR, tot eh water tank, this is a calcium cleaner available at most hardware stores or Walmart in the plumbing section, Fill the water tank the rest of the way to it's maximum level and let it sit for 5 minutes then cycle the system as if you were brewing a pot. After it has completed it's cycle turn it off to cool and dump the water from the pot and refill after rinsing the pot out and replacing the filter. Cycle the brewer again as if making a pot of coffee. You will want to do this 2 to 3 times to rinse it completely. This should solve you problem. Make sure you have thoroughly cleaned the system and emptied it of all water that may have mixed with the CLR before making coffee.

Cant get on facebook

you need to understand the problem which causes it to become slow. Once you restart, see if the hard disk light is continuously showing some activity. It is possible that you don't have enough RAM and in that case PC becomes slow as all the time hard disk keeps spinning. Open Task Manager and check which process is consuming high CPU/Memory. There is Resource Monitor in performance tab which show the processes consuming high Disk/memory/CPU. CHeck what that process is and uninstall that application or switch off that process. Keep searching based on what you find doing this.

Very slow drip from water dispenser. How do I fix

Good day,
A slow continues drip, but still dispenses O.K. is caused by the dual water valve on the bottom rear of the machine not closing completely.
Only fix is replacing the water valve assembly.

Water from ice maker running through freezer and on to floor

Normal 0 MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} The water inlet valve on the back of the unit where the water supply comes in can have a slow leak and will cause ice to buildup and block the fill tube and divert the water. Disconnect the ice maker line from the valve and watch to see if it has a slow drip. It doesn’t take much to eventually block the fill tube.
The valve can leak because of sediment in the water preventing it from closing or low water pressure.
If it overfills and drips, look for an adjustment behind the plastic endcover with a +/- on it. - is less water.

If it continuously drips, replace the water inlet valve on the back where the house water supply comes in.

Action Shots are going to slow

not entirely sure what you mean, but it sounds like you may need to increase your ASA setting to capture the action. If your camera allows it - push your ASA setting to 400..

I hope this helps
