Question edited for clarity. Question moved from Cars and Trucks. It shouldn't need calibrating from new, but yours does.

Based on the information provided, it is possible that there is an issue with the machine's internal circuitry or wiring. It could also be a problem with the control board or the sensors that detect the presence of the milk jug or hot water spout. One possible solution is to try resetting the machine to its default settings. To do this, turn off the machine and unplug it from the power source. Wait for a few minutes before plugging it back in and turning it on again. This may help reset any internal settings that could be causing the issue. If resetting the machine does not work, it may be necessary to have it serviced by a professional technician. They can diagnose and repair any underlying issues with the machine's components. It is also worth noting that regular maintenance and cleaning of the milk frother and hot water spout can help prevent issues from occurring in the first place. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning and descaling these parts of the machine. Overall, if the issue persists, it is recommended to contact Delonghi customer support or a certified technician for further assistance.

This is the third time in 2 days. Is this the same person HIDING behind 'Anonymous'? Watch videos and read. Or take to a dealer. These home coffee machines need dealer service once a year, but they don't tell you that when you buy them.

Now you know why is was a secondhand machine. This type of machine is featured on this website with faults 10 to 15 times a week. They are fully computer operated and the only way to diagnose is usually via a laptop with dealer software, or they just swap out the main control board and/or the sensor and hope for the best. https://www.google.com/search?q=DeLonghi+Autentica+ETAM29.510.B+%27The+pre-ground+coffee+funnel+is+clogged.%27+error ..

These machines need professional service every 6 to 12 months, but they don't tell you that when you buy one! The appears to be a few different models of Eletta, they seem to be a series. I see one with a milk tank on the left and another that makes two cups with a flat front. If it is leaking from the milk steam spout, they need soaking in a milk enzyme cleaner because the milk gets baked on inside the tube. They also have o-ring seals when one part joins another. https://www.google.com/search?q=de%27longhi+eletta+steam+leaking+water ..

If you have already replaced the water sensor and the magnet is functioning properly, there are a few other potential causes for the fill tank light not turning on when the water level is low in your Delonghi Magnifica XS.

1. Faulty sensor connection: Check that the sensor connection is clean and connected properly. Make sure there are no bent pins and that it is seated correctly in its socket.
2. Faulty control board: The issue may be with the control board, which could be preventing the fill tank light from turning on even when the water level is low. You may need to replace the control board to fix this issue.
3. Faulty wiring: Check the wiring for any signs of wear or damage. If you find any, you may need to replace the wiring to fix the issue.

If you have tried these steps and the fill tank light still doesn't turn on, you may want to contact a professional technician for further diagnosis and repair.

These machines are designed to fail, especially this particular model which is here on Fixya many times a week. The only way to fix is dealer service due to computers and software controlling them.

If the infuser on your DeLonghi Dynamica espresso machine is stuck, there are a few things you can try to release it:

1. Turn off the machine and unplug it from the power source.
2. Wait a few minutes to allow the machine to cool down.
3. Press the infuser release button while gently pulling on the infuser.
4. If that doesn't work, try gently pushing the infuser up and down while pressing the release button.
5. If the infuser still won't budge, try applying some food-grade lubricant to the infuser and/or the infuser chamber.
6. If none of these steps work, it's best to contact DeLonghi customer support or take the machine to a professional repair shop.

If you have checked the power switch and thermal fuses and they are functioning properly, the next step would be to check the power supply board. If the board is not providing power to the main control board, the machine will not turn on. Check for any visible signs of damage or burn marks on the power supply board. You can also use a multimeter to check if the board is providing the correct voltage to the main control board. If the power supply board is faulty, you may need to replace it. If the power supply board is functioning correctly, then the issue may be with the main control board or the display board. In that case, it may be best to consult a professional technician for further assistance.

Question edited for clarity. You are aware that we are Fixya and not DeLonghi? These machines are problematical in home use, and when they go wrong you just pick them up and take them to the nearest Service Centre. Too many models and they all have issues. https://www.google.com/search?q=Delonghi+Esam+2800+coffee+machine.+Not+grinding%2C+tray+light+on Different machine, same issue

Hello,
Usually it's a problem with microswich on top of the brewing plunger. If you are able to disassemble the coffeemachine you can change it.
Good luck!

• Every time the coffee system is switched on by the main power button it will display "SELF DIAGNOSIS", perform an automatic self-diagnostic test, and preheat and rinse cycle that cannot be interrupted.Use this switch only for vacation, storage, or cleaning. Also, be sure to unplug the unit before vacation or storage also Please see your Owner's Manual for additional information on cleaning your coffee system and preparing your coffee system for vacation and storage.

Try going back to basics to eliminate the obvious and silly stuff. How old is the machine? Coffee machine do get old and wear out. Is there water in the built in supply tank? Yes, I've made that mistake! Is there Coffee in the hopper? Has the waste hopper been emptied? When was it last put through a 'Descale' cycle? If you have removed parts to clean it have they all been refitted correctly? If there is a serious issue most of these types of machine need to be looked at by a specialist repairer as they will have the correct tools and knowledge to fix the issue. A lot of automated coffee machine only have a short lifespan of about 5 years especially if they are used regularly every day. Regular descaling and cleaning can extend this but the machines do eventually wear out and need replacing.

Thanks MLK! This solved my problem. I went through the groove of the top loader and picked out some loose grinds that were preventing the top lid from closing all the way down.

ask maker for help.

Switch the machine off, AND pull the plug, wait 5 minutes (to be sure) and turn it on. Then turn it off again, now the infuser should return to it's normal position where you can take it out. If the descale button is still flashing, try descaling again. Was the procedure interupted before? That would be a reason the light keeps flashing. Bert
