I just got mine to work by forcing water into the pump to force it to prime. I took a syringe for a meat injector and built a gasket so it would seal over the water intake. Then I forced several syringes of water into the pump till it finally picked up and caught its prime.

I found this solution on another post. Unfold a small metal paper clip and insert through the lower piercing needle of the cup holder to **** out any debris in the needle.Even a small piece of coffee or debris can slow the water flow through the cup.

My Keurig platinum B70 will not pump water through

My Keurig platinum B70 will not pump water through the system. It says "Ready to Brew",I push the brew button, it says "Brewing", but nothing happens. It also defaults to the largest cup size, and will not allow it to be changed. I got this Keurig last Dec.4 for my husband's birthday. It's worked great until today, Nov. 30!

You must first empty the water reservoir. There is a black disk inside the tank. This disk moves up and down. Place your hand inside the tank and hold the disk up. This will stimulate the tank being "full" of water. Then continue on as if you were brewing a cup of coffee. This will brew the remaining water left in your inner tank. May need to do this twice to ensure all the water is gone. Hope this was helpful.

We have a Keurig ourselves and were stumped when we first saw that descale message on the brewer.

There are a number of ways to descale a brewer, the least expensive being to run some vinegar through the machine a couple of times, and then run cold water through a few more times to rinse it.

However, simply trying to clear the lines often doesn't work. And as you will see from the many comments below, by far the most reliable way to get your Keurig brewer working again is the "Slap and Burp" method.

Here is how you do it.

First, unplug the brewer and remove both the water reservoir and drip tray.

Next, hold the brewer upside down over the sink and slap the base a few times. And I mean really slap it.

Now put everything back together and try brewing again. Most of the time this works with a couple of good slaps. If not, try it again.

And don't worry, there are no laws against giving your Keurig a good slapping!

Good luck!

Keurig machine won't turn on and won't stop clicking

Machine will just turn off on its own even if auto off isn't set. There is clicking noise coming from the machine, if there are any presets like auto time off or set temperature then those messages flash insync with the clicking on the dark screen... but i have turned all presets off and still the machine is clicking and won't turn on. (Sometimes it turns on fine, which is when I had a chance to turn off presets thinking that's what it might have been, but it's not... :( ). Help!

Most of the time, the operation is working OK, but the flow lines get plugged. When they have debris in the lines, the unit keeps on trying to work, but the water cannot move through the lines. The cycle will run its course nevertheless. Clean the top and bottom ports (Needles) with a paperclip end. Make certain the filer is changed often, and purge now and again. Use filtered water or distilled and this will not happen.
