You need to elaborate a little more on this.

Is it not coming out of the nozzles? Is it ground coffee going to the drip tray? Is it brewed coffee going to the drip tray?

The brew units on these have been a known issue. If it is broken or failed, I could see brewed coffee going to the drip tray and not coming out of the nozzles.

If you are still getting a proper coffee out of the nozzles, and your drip tray water is brown like coffee - have no worries.

SOURCE: My Miele CVA 2660 built

Hi Robin,
I had this problem a year ago. Two things to check: 1. Does the water tank go all the way down so that the small notch at the back of the tank fits into the floor of the machine? 2. Any dirt at the water tank outlet?
Besides these two issues, I would say that it is very likely that the problem is that the valve of the water tank needs to be replaced. This will especially happen if the machine has been lefter without water in the tank for some time.
Good luck.

Phillips saeco syntia coffee machine

If your Philips Saeco Syntia coffee machine is filling up the drip tray too quickly after a period of non-use, there are a few potential causes to consider:
  1. Drip tray not properly positioned: Make sure the drip tray is correctly placed and aligned within the machine. If it's not positioned properly, it may not collect the excess water as intended.
  2. Clogged or blocked brew unit or coffee grounds chute: Over time, coffee grounds and oils can accumulate and clog the brew unit or the coffee grounds chute. This can cause excessive water to bypass the proper channels and end up in the drip tray. Clean the brew unit and the coffee grounds chute according to the manufacturer's instructions to ensure proper functioning.
  3. Faulty water level sensor or float: The coffee machine relies on a water level sensor or float to detect the water level and prevent overflow. If this sensor or float is malfunctioning or stuck, it may not accurately detect the water level, resulting in excessive water in the drip tray. Contact Philips customer support or a qualified technician to diagnose and fix the issue.
  4. Pump or valve issues: Problems with the pump or valves in the machine can cause water to flow too quickly or improperly, leading to overflow in the drip tray. A professional inspection and repair may be required to address these internal components.
In any case, it's recommended to consult the user manual of your specific model for troubleshooting steps and guidelines provided by the manufacturer. If the issue persists, contacting Philips customer support or reaching out to a professional coffee machine repair service would be advisable to ensure proper diagnosis and resolution of the problem.

Drip Tray stuck inside our Jura s8 coffee machine

To reset your Jura S8 coffee machine and remove the stuck drip tray, you can try the following steps:
  1. Unplug the coffee machine and wait a few minutes for the internal components to cool down.
  2. Gently try to wiggle the drip tray to see if you can loosen it from its stuck position. Be careful not to force it, as this could damage the coffee machine.
  3. If the drip tray is still stuck, you can try resetting the coffee machine. To reset the machine, you will need to locate the reset button or switch. This may be located behind the water tank, under the machine, or in the control panel. Consult the owner's manual for the exact location of the reset button.
  4. Once you have located the reset button, press and hold it for a few seconds until the machine resets. This may cause the drip tray to release and be able to be removed.

Cva 4070 drip tray issue

Miele CVA 4066 -Empty drip tray warning would not go off even after draining the drip tray, cleaning contacts, and resetting power. Water was coming out from under the empty tray.
I pulled unit out and removed sheet metal in rear around water inlet. when I attached water line and power cord & turned on power, I could see water dripping out of one of the 2 solonoids on the water inlet valve. $168.00 from Miele and no expensive service call.

It says driptray full, but it isn't? Any ideas?

Wevhave had ours into the shop four times for the erroneous 'coffee grounds' and drip tray' emptying. They have changed the mother board, chip in the door and even looked at the head gasket and carburettor settings but can't find the source of the problem.
What we have found latelt (it's Christmas so everything is closed for a month) is if we leave it overnight without power, 3 out of 4 times it resets itself.
It's apain if it plays up during the day but mornings brings us a good cuppa more often than not.lesson-get a deLonghi next time, this Saeco brand is more trouble than they are worth.

There is too much waater going into the drip tray

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

The tray below the coffee cup holder has coffee in it all the time. is something leaking? love our machine

HI
The coffee residue is the result of the machine relieving its pressure into the drip tray. When it relieves its pressure, a little coffee residue with some water is released also, otherwise you would have an explosion of coffee inside your machine. If you are getting dry coffee in the drip tray you are getting an overcharge and that is not good. If you get residue under the drip tray, you have a blocked drain in the back of the machine just above the center of the drip tray.
