Do you know what brand/make your coffee machine is, without that information you will only get guesses, most probably useless.

SOURCE: Filling With Water

This is probably a control board failure, which should be replaced by someone familiar with them.
If you are handy, you can do it yourself.
If you need assistance, let me know.

SOURCE: Water pump problem?

You need to make sure you don’t have an air lock. Find the bleeder valve for the coolant system and release the air. If you can’t find the bleeder, find the highest hose for the coolant system and make sure coolant is flowing through it.

SOURCE: Filling With Water

Set the water level selector to a lower level. The sensor will always work if the water level is much higher than the trigger level. However, the "much higher" condition is never reached if the water is about to overflow.

SOURCE: Kitchenaid stand alone ice maker.

Check and see if your cutting grid is still lined up on the back side towards the freezer plate. I have had the cutter miss align on some and failed to see it then just have to remove the thumb screws and re set the back end. Feel for more roughness from scale. Especially on the sides and edges. you may need to clean it again

This unit I believe is set to allow water in when it goes through a harvest. it wont refill until the coldest temp is reached then will stop filling after the warmest temp is reached.

Electrolux dishwasher ESF6242, 911 236 182. Before the program was complete, the drain pump went into constant operation and the Error code i30 flashes, denoting 'water in the base' according to...

Hi
You have had a water overflow or leak which has triggered your flood switch. You need to disconnect the machine and pull it out. Throw plenty of towls on the floor and tilt machine back to empty the water from the base.
Hard to say where the overflow or leak is from. You need to reconnect machine while it is out of cabinet and run the machine to see if you can pin point a leak. Sometimes a burst drain hose.
Otherwise the front and side panels may need to be removed as the leak may be internal.
Other time a faulty PCB, faulty inlet solenoid which sticks or a faulty pressure switch or clogged pressure hose are the reasons for machine overflowing. Bad door seals can also cause machine to leak.
Therefore, there are a raft of items which can cause machine to overflow or leak.

I have a Zoeller Water Ridd'r II Model 48 Sump pump. The pump comes on okay, but will nit shutoff. The float is not impededd, it's just laying on the bottom of the sump. Is this a defective...

If I undrestand your description, when the resevoir is empty, the float lays on the bottom of the resevoir but, the pump doesn't shut off, after water is pumped out? You have to look at this as opposite of a toilet tank filling with water. In a toilet, the water rises and the foat turn the water flow off. In a sump the water will rise, and the float will turnthe pump on until the resevoir is empty, then it will open the system and turn off the pump. If the float doesn't rise, the resevoir will overflow and the pump won't come on at all. If the float rises and the pump comes on but, the float does "not" drop, the pump will continue to run after the resevoir is empty.
http://www.zoellerpumps.com/ProductByCategory.aspx?CategoryID=3
This is Zoellers link. I don't see your pump but they do have a support link. If the float rises and falls with the height of the water, turns pump on, then drops "all the way" and pump doesn't turn off, the switch is bad not the float. Make sure there is nothing in the way of the float dropping to it's full down position.

Daewoo DWCLD1013 washer & dryer The cycle keeps getting stuck on spin at around 10minutes, at which time it keeps going round and round with no actual fast spinning, until it stops about 20 minutes...

The cycle that the machine is stuck in is in fact the empty cycle, just before the spin kicks in. It is staying there because it has a problem evacuating all the water. The machine won't go into spin until all the water is gone and after a set time ( 20 minutes is unusually long, most machines stop after about 10,, but I'm not familiar with Daewoo), the attempt to empty is aborted and the machine stops.

Your problem therefore is either:

The filter for the empty pump is clogged with debris (far and away the most likely) you will need to locate and clean the filter

The EXIT to the drain is blocked, check the empty pipe is not blocked

The empty pump has failed (you would usually expect to hear the pump rumming, but it may not be a noise that you are familiar with).

First and second items are easy to fix, the 3rd is a pump replacement, which isn't that hard, but depends on your level of DIY skill

I Just love this machine however the past two days it is only giving me half a cup of coffee and then at the same time as it is filling my cup it is also putting the hot water back into the resevoir tank....

1.Power off machine.
2.Using a metal paperclip, insert it into left side of top needle. It must insert at least 1" deep.Insert it into slot on right side and again from back of needle.
3.Remove KCup cradle.Separate bottom from top.In the top section, insert the paperclip up into bottom needle from the bottom upwards.It will not go all the way thru and this is normal.
4.Reassemble KCup cradle and reinsert it back into coffee maker.
5.Power on machine.
6.Brew a cup of water only.There may be coffee grounds in the water and these should eventually clear during the remaining steps.NOTE: A large cup brew cycle should output a full 8 ounces (235cc).Less means there is still a blockage
7.Empty reservoir and fill with undiluted distilled white vinegar.Repeatedly run brewing cycle until Add Water light comes on.
8.Make sure Auto-OFF is NOT set and let last cycle of vinegar remain inside machine for 4 hours.
9.Refill reservoir with fresh water and repeatedly run brewing cycle until the water is clear and odorless.
10.Set Auto-OFF, if preferred.

Cant find my manual and I dont recall what descaling means. It is stuck on this and wont do anything. Please advise

According to the owner's manual, you sould empty the water resevoir. Fill the water resevoir with white vinegar (it says 48 oz). Place a ceramic (not paper) cup in the drip tray and run a travel mug cycle with no k-cup in the machine. Throw the vinegar out. Repeat this process until the resevoir is empty. Be sure to open and close the lid so the cup sizes flashes each time. let the brewer sit for 4 hours while still on (the vinegar's still inside). Rinse out the resevoir, fill it with water and run the cycles through until the resevoir is empty again. If there is any residual taste. repeat the rinse. If it still say descale when you're done, the book says to repeat the process.

The Home Cafe machine will not pump water

It's dirty or has scale / deposits. Use a paper towel to draw out as much water as you can from the "hole that leads into the machine" - then fill it with clear, distilled vinegar and let that sit for about 15 minutes. Fill the resevoir with a vinegar / water mixture. After the 15 minutes, run the vinegar solution through until the resevoir is empty.

After you do that, you will have to run several tanks of water through, to get the taste / smell of vinegar out, but the machine will work fine again.

Nespresso Magimix M300 'Fill Water'

it just means that the pump needs primed. Turn on at the wall and on the machine, wait until screen says ready (make sure water tank full), then turn steam handle on RHS to on (do not push the steam button). the pump will prime until water comes out of the steam nozzle. now turn off the steam handle and you are ready to go!
