I have a similar model to this one. Water is leaking from exactly the same place. I took the panels off yesterday to take a look. I thought I'd never be able to fix this problem but thanks to Milen, our 8 year old Magnifica S is going to have a few more years in it. You are a star sir.
When I opened everything like you said, I can see that half the water from the cleaning program is running directly in the leaking tray. Is that problem also solved with this cleaning the'labyrinth'?
Hi Milen, I like your video it's very informative, however from your explanations is not very clear WHY there is a leak to the drip tray. You only showed the symptoms and how to clean that canal. My machine drops water every time I make a coffee. I suspect that valve after the water pump. Do you have a better idea?
the problem is that the expansion chamber, i.e. the housing in which the water heater is installed, is not tight. therefore the water does not run out of the bottom of the spout but out of it. the solution: press a 15 cm long piece of silicone tubing measuring 3 x 2 mm into the groove and everything is sealed. the lower area of the chamber is important.
Hi I have Magnifica Ecam working fine, but grinding only for 2 seconds and make weak coffee. I have replaced the sensor on the transmission but still the same problem. Also I changed the grinder but still the same. Do you know what could be ?
Hi , Thanks a lot for all your vid I bought my DeLonghi Magnifica XS from Costco MN 120 v - 60 HZ 1250 W Type ECAM 22110 B P= 1.5 MPa (15 bar) When I took it to North Africa and by mistake I plugged it in 220 V I smelled little burning. I still can turn it on I can hear the coffee grinding all screen look good with green and yellow light but it doesn't dispense water nor a coffee. Please help.
Milen Stoitsev, you rule! With your excellent video I managed to solve the leakage problems of my coffee machine. My machine was slightly different, all the main components were identical. If you are ever in the Netherlands I owe you a cup of coffee 😁
Hi Milen, Thank you for this video! It gave me the courage to disassemble my DeLonghi Magnifica S and try to fix a problem with some water forming under the machine and the drip tray filling rather quickly. I thought there could be some leak inside but I couldn't find any. I changed the safety valve to see if this had any effect. I put it back together but the small pool of water still forms under the machine. What I noticed is that during making a coffee and then adding the milk with the hot water/steam device, there's a good quantity of water dripping to the drip tray. In particular there's much steam that is discharged to the tray. I think some of this steam wets outside the drip tray, then condenses and forms the pool of water under the machine. Can you or anyone else think what is the cause of this abnormal amount of water and steam is discharged? Thank you!
Hello, how are you ? Fine? Please, the function of the electrovalve is to open or close, if it has On, let it pass, if it doesn't have ON, block it. but this one seems to have a drainage tube in its body. I have ecam 610, do you know? And RÉSISTANCE DE VAPORISATION at its entrance there is a tube that has a leak because it seems to gain a lot of pressure. I already changed the oring, I already cleaned the RÉSISTANCE DE VAPORISATION inside, but still problem with leakage….. I'm already without ideas…..
Hi Milen, I have replaced a broken heater on a Saeco Poemia, everything seem to work except there's a leakage where the water hose enters the heater. It's a threaded brass nut and it's leaking between the threads and the aluminium housing. How can it be fixed? Thanks for your excellent videos.
Hi, I have the ecam 22.360 model which has the extra milk container and hot water tap. After using the hot water from the tap I find a puddle of water fill inside the coffee grind bin. Im not sure if this is normal or something is wrong. Any ideas? Thanks
My water tank was leaking, so I removed the valve and the parts inside, there was nothing wrong with any of the components, so I replaced everything. All of a sudden there was NO leaking anymore. Maybe they weren't correctly installed. It has been 1 week now and still no leakage.
Hi there! I have an ECAM 23 which I cleaned up and replaced the o-rings. For some reason it still leaks water in the drip tray. I comes from a 3 way solenoid valve. One opening looks like some sort of overflow and empties via a black rubber tube in the black chamber. I replaced the valve but that doesn't solve the problem. Do you have any idea what's going wrong?
Hi at 16:12 you can see a part at the top of the machine. Do you have a video addressing this part and potential O Ring replacement? I saw on another video that this was a part that could be causing water to drain to pan instead of making coffee. I do not have any leaks, but about a third of the water for the coffee ends up in the drain pan instead of coffee. Thank you for all your help!
I basically ordered that cleaning product you used immediately after seeing how easy it desolved everything! I thought citric acid was good enough but no. Looking forword to compare when it's delivered.
Hello, By any chance do you know what the issue is if the machine ground but not brewing. I have a DeLonghi ecam4500 .error message is less coffee. Thanks
Watched all your videos and learned a lot about coffee machines' inner workings in general, therefore saved me a lot of money! THANKS, A MILLION! Thank you for trying so hard in English, you're doing a great job, would have been really hard to decipher it all from Russian! Thank you!
Hello. I have a Demoka by Minimoka that works fine, except when you keep it pumping for long, it beeps and turns off. I can't use the steam maker because it needs more time to heat the water and it turns off. Any ideas?
Thanks for video. But it didn't help my leaking issue. it took my time to disassemble and cleaning. Delonghi is a huge disappointment really. Never gonna buy any product again from this brand. What could be other problem for leak? everything looks normal inside the machine.
I have a problem where water is not getting to the coffee and is not rinsing either, so nothing coming out of the coffee dispenser, instead it is coming out into the drip tray on the left hand side. I have followed your video and stripped and cleaned the machine but it is still doing it. I have tested the machine as you advised whilst it was all open and I can not see the water travelling through any of the clear hoses, so I am assuming that it is there for dripping from the bottom of the steam valve but I do not know for sure. Any ideas which part might be at fault here? Thank you for taking the time to post video's like this they are a great help.
@@kinderen7834 I replace the Infuser (Brew Piston, not to be confused with defuser) and the O rings, which fixed it completely for me. You might find this video useful ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IY0LQXaQRZs.html
My machine doesn’t make that pump sounds - the brr brr brr ... I’ve opened the vibrator pump, and checked for damage, or broken seals... by all look ok. What would cause this? It’s like the pump is not engaged - no sound. Would really appreciate any help ... I’m trying to solve it for an elderly lady down the road, who can’t buy another one.
I can see one problem here and that is no any seal in the area where hard plastic touching together around all this drain cover area. I have checked mine and it was clean, but still have leak and it is coming from inside this drain thru area where both part touching each other.
How did you manage to get out the internal part of the spout at 30:14? After taking out the screw at the bottom , the internal part is stuck and i cannot make it slide up like you did. I removed the rubber tube so I don't have something to pull.. yours was easy to pull up the first time?
Out of all of the videos on youtube about these machines, I cannot find a single one that shows exactly how the steam lines are routed and it seems that the wiring to the components look different on some models like the red, light blue and the brown wire seems to not be standard wiring, I am so frustrated i have had my steam boiler out several times, I cleaned the solenoid valve and it was working but after cutting and repairing one side of the steam boiler the other side is leaking and they want $100 plus 3 month wait for the steam boiler to come from Italy. I have a feeling that my steam lines must be in the wrong place and the solenoid valve does not open now and it makes coffee but not steam for froth but there is no way to know what the voltages are to check anything because there are no schematics or repair manuals. I really need some help figuring out if i have everything back together right. I have a Delonghi Magifica EAM 3400 N
How do I clean the spouts that dispenses coffee into the cup? I keep getting error code that the mill needs to be adjusted but nothing changes when mill is adjusted, You can hear machine start to attempt to dispense water then times out as nothing is dispensed. Thanks in advance. Your English is awesome and understandable!!
Hello ! Great video to get an overview of what s inside... I need to clean my filter that is just before the flow pump... it s blocking the water to get inside, clearly... but do you know if this piece of plastic can be opened and then safely closed again? it looks cheap and fragile... not sure if it can be opened... looks like it is closed by brute force and that if I open it I ll destroy it... second question: any advice where I can buy spare part for delonghi machines? like such filter? cheers
Great video, frankly I do not think these machines are made to repair, companies made them (screwed). A common user will throwm them to buy a new , sadly putting 200 screws is only intention to discourage the repair.
I just want to say thank you for this video, I followed your steps and it solved my water leakage problem by cleaning the chamber attached to the boiler - saved me from buying a new machine!
Thanks for the excellent instruction but I still have a fault that I hope you can help with. I ran a descale and a week later I get no hot water/steam or coffee. There is a blockage somewhere after the boiler but before the hot water/steam mixer valve. The narrow gauge pipe from the boiler exit enters the top of the infuser assembly and comes back out through a black connector immediately behind it. Exit pipe is clear but how can I check the pathway in between? The infuser assembly is clean. Any hints? TIA.
Great video of all the major components and helpful hints on disassembly. I, have an ECAM 250 33 which is a brilliant machine, however my steam wand cappuccino frother has lost pressure, steam comes out but not with enough pressure to create froth. Do you have a cure for this in video format or just the answer will do. With kind regards Will
Great video - I fixed my Magnifica because you showed how to clean the flow meter. A small particle was inside, I removed it and the machine is running fine again! 😊😊😊😊😊
Hi there, I am sure that they make it so hard to clean the machine that customers will prefer to buy a new one after they try to repair it or that they have to pay somebody to repair it. My recommendation is to always use filtered water to avoid any future problems.
I've fixed split tubes on my machine before over the years - nearly 10! - but this leak had me beat. I had all but resigned to the fact that I'd have to get rid of it. Thanks to you I have just cleaned that bit and it's fixed again, thank you!
Hi got the same machine, followed your video but no joy. Every other coffee works, and every other one ejects the puck after no water comes through nozzle. The water ends up in the tray(not at the side), and also at the back behind coffee bit. Steam wand works great. Any ideas?
Your video safed my day, especially the part where you removed the heater/boiler. Had the leakage problem because of dirt in there after 9 years of good usage, too and was to stupid to remove that part, thank you ;-)!
I have just bought the ECAM250.33.TB magnifica smart and I have a leak from the left hand side, I removed the panels and found that the pipe for the steamer has split, trying to source a replacement now
Today I took my ECAM 22 apart to clean the boiler chamber. It wasn’t that dirty as we use a filter on the water tank, but still after putting it back together, having made a coffee there was still a small leak behind the overflow tube which was flowing behind the small red drip tray and on to the surface. It was definitely leaking from the chamber. When you take it apart, there’s like an overlapping “seal” from which water was leaking. To fix it I filled the channel with grease then reinserted it, screwed it back together and for sure the leak is no more. I can’t think why it would start leaking. It wasn’t cracked but I guess after 8 years of very regular use the plastic chamber has warped slightly. Not sure how long the grease will hold for but it was a fairly easy repair.
I have the same problem, also cleaned the boiler chamber, but it still leaks, there isn't any rubber seal for that part, you used grease ? ...is het the grease for the grinder that you used ? ...or what type of grease ? ...
@@dominiquediericx8401 I just used bearing grease. It worked for about 6 months when it started leaking from another place. The machine was by then 7 years old so we decided to replace it. I’ve never had 7 years from a bean to cup. Really pleased with Delonghi so we bought a slightly newer version. Good luck!
Hello Milen, thank you for this video. I was able to take it apart & clean & put together. No parts were left over and IT WORKED still !! Just one question ... the coffee doesn't flow out but it drips out (also after cleaning). Is there a part that needs to be replaced maybe . I am thinking maybe the pressure became too low over the years. Looking forward to your reply :-)
The problem is in water pump. You have probably worn-out a little ball inside the mechanical part of the pump. Watch this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DoO9ckyJ-rs.html, or you can replace whole pump... I don't know , here in Poland you can buy that plastic ball with no problem... I'm not sure - maybe even ball for ASG weapon will work too - I don't know the diameter, so I'm not sure...
Ther's another possiblity - wrong adjusted cofee grinder, it can grind too fine and the pump is unable to pass the water through the cofee tablet, because it's too thick. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oXMU0tkZRUwI.html . You have to keep that in mind that after cofee change, the grinder may need to be re-adjusted, because the settings depends on the size of beans. I bought different coffee then usually and I had the same issue that cofee drips-out drop by drop and after grinder re-adjustment it works corectly. After time the grinder also wears-out , so after some time it needs be re-adjusted too.
These are exellent quality machines- I have one. And i love it! Here in Norway we have "soft" clean water, by that we never need to decalk the machines, like you would need in other places. So dirty filter are of no concern eighter. BUT.. we do have the frezzing cold... so guys never store these machine where the temperature goes bellow 0c. I did and both the white plastic connectors to the hose cracked open(due to water inside crystelized), i have ordered new ones, hopefully i can fix this. Great video!
