Hi, hot water doesn't turn on. Makes clicking sound

odd noise like popping or singeing fire....clicking noises.....sounds like you have a water leak putting out the pilot.......or your thermo coupling is bad....or the noise is the tank full of calcium buildup and that will make noises when the burner is on

If the Hot water and the steam function work fine - then I would say the water system and heaters are good. Are the grounds being dumped in the waste dry? I would guess so. The brew unit drive sounds to be the issue - it has a valve on it that dumps the water to waste if the pressure is to great - the waste valve sometimes gets stuck, but in your scenario it sounds as if the brew unit is not being driven to full compression (the clicking sound) and if that is the case the operation is cancelled. One thing you may try - set the grind to coarse and try a small cup - this is easier on the drive and may work - showing the Valve is good and the brew unit drive is starting to weaken.
Hope that helps

Hi, I have the same issue ! ... Can you let me know if you fixed it please.
Regards Brad

Sounds like one hose is turned off or plugged. The buzzing is ususally the inlet valve without water going to it.The machine will wait forever. Verify that both hoses have water on and actually flowing.

The typical situation is the hoses get hooked up backwards, but both are turned on, no one notices.....Dad gets big hot water bill, and turns off hot water (routed to cold inlet valve) Washer uses hot or warm until rinse cycles (which need cold water, which dad turned off).... Machine gets halted waiting for water....

Hi,
The sound is the water heating through mineral buildup in the bottom of the tank...
The water gets superheated (boiling) because the mineral traps it aroung the element for too long....then it makes the noise as it percolates there....


How to Clean Hot Water Heater

unplug for couple of minutes for thermostat to reset then plug it back

When selecting "Hot Water," can you hear a pump working (usually a strong buzzing sound)? If you do, then water path may be blocked or pump itself is jammed. A jammed water pump still makes buzzing sound. May be stuck from not using, for long period of time. Especially, in hard water areas.

Hi,
There is a loose washer in the faucet...this flaps as the water goes through it and makes the vibration...
You either need to replace the faucet or the cartridge (washer) in the faucet that valves the water...
This will stop that vibration and hammering sound

Hi,
The noise is inherent in electric hot water heaters. It is the noise that the water makes when it is being heated by electric heating elements. Mineral buildup on the elements can make it worse, so changing the elements can help...but will not totally elimenate the noise. When I install a new tank and turn it on all I have to do is listen to it to see if it is working or not...even brand new will make a sound...it is the sound of hot water... :-)

Hi.

The clicking sound is given by the solenoid that turns on and off the iron element. Heating cannot be turned on, and the iron keeps clicking without making any heat.

The cause of the problem can be a defective solenoid, a broken contact, or an open thermistor (it will turn the solenoid back on). The oven must be taken apart and tested to find the fault.

Regards.
