Both Espresso and Coffee buttons give me an espresso, whats the difference? isn't the coffee button supposed to produce American Coffee?

Basing on personal experience (you can find more on Google probably), solutions are:
On percolated (filter) coffee machines:
Check water temp, if water temp is insufficient , most common is scale heating element , faulty element, faulty thermostat.
Check
if water is dripping right at the center of the filter, if it is
dripping on one side because the orifice is clogged, that can result in
weak coffee.
Coffee blend not well distributed on filter basket.
On Espresso machines:
Check water temp, same as filter coffee machines (thermostat element, scale on heating chamber).
Ensure that coffee is filled correctly in the filter cup (fill at level), and well pressed.
Ensure that the coffee mixture that you are using is not too coarse, buy the apposite one for espresso.
Ensure
that you are not leaving the machine brewing for a time that is too
long, and Italian coffee cup is very small, approximately one regular
shot.
On the hob moka pots (espresso, Moka and Bialetti type):
This
are the trickiest ones, you need art and practice to get a good
espresso with a Moka, but when you learn, the result is better than
what you may get with an home electrical espresso maker.
The frame
on the hob must be not too strong, and the mixture coarse but well
pressed, with water at level tag, or you will get a weak coffee.
On Mokas a good strategy is keeping hob at minimum, and turning up the flame at top when coffee starts coming out.
French and turkish cafetieres:
Ensure that you put enough coffee, water hot enough, and that you left the infusion enough time to get a strong coffee.
Note: insufficient pressure and clogged lines on electric machines never give you a weak coffee, exactly the opposite.
Not pressed mixture always gives weak coffee, but too much pressed mixture may give you coffee with bad taste.

I've worked on that problem on a X9, I am not sure if the coffee/milk spout is the same but, I had to dismantle the spout and clean inserts, I also had to replace the o-rings on the spouts.

I think you use too fine grist on the grinder, or the coffeebeans are really dark and moisty. Try to set the grinder to a coarser grist, for dark roasted coffee it`s not recomended to to use any finer than medium grist. However, the sieve in the brewing unit could be clogged, and you need to clean this out. Put a finger up in the brew unit just along the grounds blade, you will probably find a lot of old fine coffeeground up the. Clean it up as best as possible, and then try to make coffee with coarser grist. If this helps, it`s smart to run a cleaning program to be on the safe side.
If nothing of this helps, you don`t have a choice, you have to send it for service, then the brew unit has to be dissasembled and cleaned from the inside.

The sieve in the brew unit is probably clogged, this means that it takes to long to push the water through the coffee. There is an automatic time-out on the pump that controls this. It also can be that your coffeeoutlet is clogged.
Try cleaning out any used coffeegrounds from the inside of the machine, use your finger up into the brew unit. If this doesn`t help, it needs service.
Hi,
Here is a tip that I wrote that will give you some things to try that will help you get your Keurig coffee brewer working again.
