How to reset keurig b40

1. There is some confusion over models. I've seen "B40" models and instructions with only one size cup button, both labeled B40. I own one stamped "B40" on the bottom, and it has two buttons -- small and large. FWIW, small = 8 oz, large = 10 oz.

2. These reset instructions from another site seemed to do something
What to Do If Your Keurig Won Brew Cup Barista

So.. this is what I did that worked for mine: 1) Hold down Auto-Off and LARGE cup at same time. (all lights should hold steady ON) 2) press SMALL cup while still holding Auto-Off and LARGE cup 3) Release all three, press LARGE cup again.. all lights should go off. 4) Unplug for about 5 - 10 second, plug back in. SHOULD WORK!

3. On *_my_* B40, remove the K-cup, close the door, fill the reservoir. Unplug and replug the B40. All lights should be off.

Pressing "Auto Off" and "Large Cup" together will turn on 3 lights (Heating, Add Water, Power) for about 3 seconds. Doesn't matter how long the buttons are pressed or what order they are released.

I tried lots of add-on combinations: e.g. press button x, press x multiple times, press x while lights are still on, press x after lights are off, press buttons x and y together, press x then y, press x and/or y while still holding Auto and Large, release Auto but not Large and press x, etc.

Nothing gave any confirmation that a reset was accepted. All lights always turned off after 3 seconds. Maybe Reset is only 1 step, i.e. Auto+Large together?

Model B40. A little over 1 year old only. Problem started with the brewer not starting eventhough power on. Shaking or repluging the electrical wire would make it start. After a week or so, the trick...

Keurig b40 elite,when plugged in, all lights keep blinking.

After trying everything that I have read about I finely made up my mind that this thing could not be fixed so I decided to just push all the buttons and hold them down for awhile when I let them go the lights went off and now it is working just fine.

Blinking lights

let it blink for about 15 minutes, then adjust each one of the settings, then turn it off and back on, for some reason it stops flashing and will work. Warning, after doing this for about a week, mine now has no power at all. It is plugged in and the outlet works and there is no power going to the machine, it is not even a year old!
