I bought a keurig b70 on craigslist and found two problems. 1 is the little black plastic nub where the reservoir meets the unit its a x shape came loose when I was cleaning it causing the tank to leak. And 2 is the power cable had a little rip in the protective plastic cover causing there to be exposed wire. The exposed wire touched the leaking water and shorted out the maker and caused a pretty nasty spark and countertop burn. I know I can fix the cable with some electrical tape, but how do I fix the leak and most importantly, the short circuit Can I just replace a fuse Thanks.

SOURCE: water leaks out the bottom
There are many possible points that the leak can be. All points of the water supply from water tank to the pressure pump then to boiler . All this are connected together with plastic or Teflon pipes with easy fit unions secure with clips You need to disassemble the machine and work it without the side panels of course with extra care since power electrical cables are exposed. In this way with a very good visual check while the machine is in operation you can identify the leaking point and fix it.

You have to remove teh 5 screws from the bottom plate on the unit and they there is a small translucent corrugated hose fastened with a small ty-rep. Remove this hose and simply drain the stainless tank to the sink and replace the hose over the barb, slide the ty-rap back in place and it is EMPTY. Takes ten minutes start to finish. Phillips screwdriver and needlenose pliers are all that is needed.

My Keurig B60 had the same issue. The water reservoir has a valve in a nipple on the bottom that slides into a clear plastic fitting within the base of the unit. Water from the reservoir is supposed to pass through the fitting and into the pump, which is also in the base. Over time, hard water deposits can build up on the nipple or the mating fitting (or both) such that a good seal is not made when the reservoir is in place and water slowly leaks out the bottom. To fix this, I removed the five screws on the bottom of the Keurig and then removed the two screws which hold the fitting in place. I gently cleaned both the clear plastic fitting and the nipple in the bottom of the reservoir with white vinegar. After rinsing both with clean water and drying both, I applied a small amount of silicon faucet grease (available at any hardware store) to both parts. I haven't had any more leaks since, although I assume I will have to repeat this operation periodically.
