Water is leaking, while the machine heats water for steaming

replace seal

Unit requires a new steam valve assembly

Check the chamber under the white plastic valve behind the brew unit, it might be blocked with coffee.

Most likely the tap rod assembly and or the whole valve needs to be replaced.

Just try to pour some hot water out from the steam wand after some seconds the veltilate massage will go out.
Good luck

The steam valve has been leaking on the inside for awhile, the steam condensed on the display board. You will have to replace the steam valve assembly and maybe the display board.

Check the thermostats on the boiler and the boiler element?

Hi What color is the steam manifold? It is located under the black cover with the trough in back under the whit tube. If its whit or black it probably needs to be replaced. If you cool down the manifold after steaming you can prevent this from happening. Just turn off the steam and then open the knob again to run water. It comes out steam at first but then will turn to a water stream. Then you can close the knob and go about brewing or just let it stand.

If it leaks from the steam wand then you need to get a new steam valve assembly. For the heat you will have to open the machine it is possible that the steam boiler is damaged or that the thermostat on there is bad, use an ohmsmeter to check thermostats and element. There are 2 screws in the grinder, 2 behind the water tank and about 2 or 3 in the front behind the door.

There is a small teflon piece on the inside of the steam tube, you will have to disassemble the frother to get to it. Remove this piece. Reassemble and the wand should work fine.
