From having no temperature in the steam system, it has now warmed up a little but not to steam temperature. When I pressed the steamer button on the tank filled up with water but nothing comes out through the nozzle.
Can you provide any further help?
Being not sue of how these work, I imagine that there is a heater with an over-temp cut-off switch in it somewhere. It sounds like it's not getting hot enough. You would have to take it apart and test all the components with a multimeter, it you know how to do this.
Find a big store with a good exchange policy that sell the identical model and bring your defective one back. These are made in China for 50 cents and the profit margins are astronomical for the junk that they are.
