I have a Faema Due. Every time I press the right group buttons (any button) to extract, the left group also deliver water. The problem does not work is in reverse. I notice this start to happen as I get hot water at the end of the day. It seems the controller somehow try to synchronize the 2 groups! How to stop this from happening?

No, you will not have to change the elements, though the connexion cable will have to be approximately twice as thick. The three phases will, of course, deliver their power alternately, and the thinner neutral cable takes account of that. Do seek professional advice before connecting it to the mains supply.

Try reprogramming buttons if that doesn't work, then the keypad is going out.

The right button in the frame of the clock face is chooses mode; it cycles through alarm, date and time, in that order. The left sets alarm, date or time.

1)To set the time:
Press the right button 6 times until the hour display flashes. (Make sure it is the time and not AL = Alarm)
Press the left button until you have the correct hour (note AM or PM)
Press the right button again until the minute display flashes.
Press left button until you have the correct minute.
Press the right button then the left button; the colon should flash.
The clock is set.

2)To set the alarm time:
Press the right button twice until the hour display flashes. (Make sure AL is displayed in top right hand corner)
Press the left button until you have the correct hour (note AM or PM)
Press the right button again until the minute display flashes.
Press left button until you have the correct minute.

3)To turn on the alarm:
Press the right button once
Press the left button once
There should be a symbol which says "AL ON" near the centre top of the time display.
Press the right button 3 times until the colon flashes
The alarm is on.
There is also a way to get a bell symbol displayed at the centre bottom. (I didn't test what it does)

4)To set date:
Press the right button 4 times until the month display flashes.
Press the left button until you have the correct month
Press the right button again until the day display flashes.
Press left button until you have the correct day.

It is possible that the solenoid on the group head is blocked, or the coil is damaged, or the metering jet on the top of the head is blocked. Since there is no click then I think the coil might be the problem. Disconnect the black electrical cover with screw in the middle, lift up and using an ohms meter check for resistance between left and right curved prongs. The flat one is the ground so ignore that one. If you have resistance, then remove the 14mm discharge chute, then the nut, washer and large flat washer and slide out the coil. DO NOT REMOVE THE SOLENOID FROM THE HEAD UNLESS YOU HAVE BREW VALVE GASKET TO REPLACE THE OLD ONES. TURN OFF THE WATER AT SUPPLY VALVE. MAKE SURE MACHINE IS COLD. Using a wrench remove the silver part of the solenoid body from the brass part connected to the head. Check the 2 holes in there and make sure they are clear, you can briefly turn on the water to see if it flows out of there careful it be a powerful stream. Reassemble and test group head.

I think this is what you are after if this isn't what you need you can find the manual at

Sounds like the group valve has lime in it or the plunger is stuck open.

If it's the same as the used one I just picked up, there is a dial position for coffee, with a little cup on it. The dial position for steam is the one that cares about the positoin of the steam/hot water button.
The coffee position will never use steam and you don't need worry about the position of the steam button if you're not frothing milk.

Hold down button for 8 to 10 seconds. If that is not working then you might have the older model in which you have to hold down the stop plus the button that you are programming until you get the desired volume then release button and stop button.

That is serious, that means the grinder is jammed or not working. To check the components of the machine follow these instructions.
Press and hold the steam button and turn on the machine, when you see the lights going around in anticlockwise direction, release the button. Turn the coffee dial to the left and press the steam button, the grinder should turn. Dial on the right and pressing coffee ****. water pump runs. Press steam ****. brew group go up, dial 1/4 to left B/Group down.
If grinder not turning the motor is bad. Hope it will help to find out.

Press the stop button and the button you are programing together, then keep them held down until you get your level then release.
