We had the same problem with our keurig. We were going to get a new one but decided to try to fix it first and watched your video. It worked!!! We are so glad it's working now. There's no need to get a new one....we've had ours for 10 years now!
I just had a problem that none of the videos helped fix. (watched about 10 of them) I did all the tips -- even took some of the water lines apart and cleaned them. Then I took a ball/bicycle pump -- put it on the water value at bottom of reservoir and pumped a few times. Now it works!
thank you for the video, I have a Duo, the cups will not fill completely at times, the carafe fills fine, they did a great job o hiding the fasteners on this unit
Thanks, after many descaling and trying other tips, I was afraid I had a bigger issue until I found this issue. I took off the check valve, it looked crusty inside. I blew through it and it seemed sticky. So I soaked it in vinegar overnight, reinstalled the valve and it works perfect. Thank You!
Use a small piece of painters tape on small screws at the driver tip to hold them for one handed positioning. You can also use tape on a hex head screw or bolt to allow a compression fit into a socket. Again, for blind or non-magnetic installs.
You mean the K cup side? Check the needle where it pierces the k cup it may be plugged. Use a paper clip to clear the needle. This is a different Keurig machine but I show how to clean the needle. ua-cam.com/video/FuBThlwihPk/v-deo.html
I have the 2018 Keurig model K- compact. I am currently wondering if there is a problem with the water pumping mechanism? Not all the water put into it comes out! I put in 28 ounces of water, and only 20 ounces come out before the "add water" light comes on! Where does the rest of the water go? Is it trapped inside the machine somewhere? I just got this machine, I hope it's not defective. Ideas?
I can tell there is water trapped inside the machine. You can hear it sloshing when I puck up the machine and move it around. Also, some of the trapped water will dribble out of the K- cup area. So disappointed!
@@carolgarrett1786 Carol I would return the Keurig if its under warranty. Sounds like the check valve is not working. You may want to try and use a turkey baster to force air thru the bottom of the reservoir where the water enters the machine you may have an air lock.
How hard do you have to blow through it to get air to come out? I seem to need a bit of force to get air through my check valve which I think is causing water to come back through the overflow drain into the tank...
You don't have to remove the handle. I've soaked mine in vinegar for 24 hours and it still sticks again after a couple of weeks. Trying to find a new replacement check valve.
I just picked up that same model at a thrift shop it had the same problem nice video thanks do you know what model is that keurig just can't find a label with the model number
I've run descaling solution through. It will work for a short while, but gets backed up again fairly quickly. I'm going to try soaking the check valve in vinegar overnight. See if that gives me more than month of use.
So, where exactly IS the check valve? I've tried watching these videos on my phone, but it's so dark and I can't make out what parts they are talking about.
@@carolgarrett1786 The big, white bulbous thing that's removed in the video above contains the check valve. You can see the round blue o-ring gasket inside it. That o-ring is what seems to get clogged. Soaking the whole piece in vinegar, overnight, helps unclog it.
A much easier approach that doesn't involve taking the unit apart is to take the unit to a gas station and use compressed air at the water intake to blow out all of the coffee crud. You may need to put your finger over the overflow. Quick and easy. Nothing wrong with first using a paperclip or pipe cleaner to try to clear the obstruction but often this is merely a temporary fix.
Where would one push the air into? I tried compressed air into the overflow, and it'll push water out through the K-Cup side, like normal. Don't want to do that for every cup though...

Glad my video helped. Keurig 10 years wow Thanks for posting.
I'm going to give it a shot and see how it turns out, your video makes it look pretty easy 😊
Thank you for such a good detailed video. Saved me from buying a new Keurig.
Your welcome. Happy my video helped.

I have the same one. Carafe fine but I have to do 2 8oz to get a full cup

Hi there a silver part on the other side of my Kerrigan coffee machine and the other side doesn't have one the machines buttons just lights up
I have a Keurig Duo and it won’t brew coffee on the single serving side. I have descaled it 2 times with no luck. Any tips on what to do? Thanks😉

Your welcome Charles.
What do I do if my Keurig dispenses Too Much water?
Do you show why the power won’t go on? Just stopped powering on.

Normal was easy to get air thru check valve,
I hit dislike by mistake. Sorry
How do you do this on a K-duo?
The Keurig K-Duo a different design. Check your needle valves they may have to be cleaned.
good job
Thank you

Did you ever find a replacement check valve, Paul?
@@WaltDittrich No, I ended up buying a new Keurig.
@@paul8540 Thanks. That wasn't the answer I was looking to hear. 😂
@@WaltDittrich Sorry, I only have so much patience when it comes to not getting my daily caffeine fix...lol.
I just picked up that same model at a thrift shop it had the same problem nice video thanks do you know what model is that keurig just can't find a label with the model number
Thank you. The Model is Keurig 560.

Could also be the k80

My brewer is not coming apart like his model check valve is not accessible. It is not on top
There should be a check valve some where on your Keurig.
Follow the tubing.
Couldn't you just run vinegar through it like you would with a normal coffee pot?
No I tried vinegar and it didn't work. It had to be taken apart. Problem was at the check valve.
I've run descaling solution through. It will work for a short while, but gets backed up again fairly quickly.
I'm going to try soaking the check valve in vinegar overnight. See if that gives me more than month of use.
My Check valve seems plugged. I let it soak in vinegar for 20 minutes, blew in it, and it's still isn't working.
So, where exactly IS the check valve?

no need to remove the brew handle
My keurig will dispense hot water all day, but it won't do a k-cup at all.

Lol think I will stick with the paper clip. Your gas station compressor will smell of tires when brewing coffee, lol
BILL ANGELL. CANT YOU JUST USE A CAN OF COMPRESSED AIR. INSTEAD OF GOING TO GAS STATION. CAN YOU USE A SMALL PUMP A FOUNTAIN PUMP WOULD IT WORK.
