After you make a cup of coffee check to see the following
If there is water in the waste - you have a clogged brew unit. If there is water in the drip tray - then you have a faulty valve on the Brew unit drive.

SOURCE: Leaking cuisinart grind and brew

Our Cuisinart grind and brew was leaving a puddle under it after making a pot of coffee. I called Cuisinart this week and it turns out the handle of the carafe has to be lined up in the middle of the opening for the carafe. It will be under the word Cuisinart, in the middle.

We have now made several pots with NO residual puddle of water or coffee. It also seems to be making the pots quicker.

Before trying this I had run 2 pots of water with 1/2 cup white vinegar in it also. But it still puddled until we lined up the carafe as noted above.

SOURCE: keurig coffee maker won't draw water from the resevoir

I just got mine to work by forcing water into the pump to force it to prime. I took a syringe for a meat injector and built a gasket so it would seal over the water intake. Then I forced several syringes of water into the pump till it finally picked up and caught its prime.

SOURCE: miele coffee maker cva 4070

OK. Here's the deal. I struggled with this CVA 4070 (F 73) problem also recently, and even posted a questions in the cyber world about it. I jiggled, re-cleaned the machine, re-read the Miele manual, and scoured the internet for schematic drawings of this brewing unit's insides. No luck. Finally after finding out I'd have to pay $199 just for a service clown to walk in my front door, I said NYET!!!  I must solve by myself. If I can take apart & fix my Dyson, etc, etc, I WILL DO THIS TOO!!  (MUST HAVE COFFEE>>>)
Pull out the brewer, turn it a quarter-turn to your right, and look at the spot where that small black plastic piece -- shaped like a block "M" or block "W" -- should be situated. Pull it out, if it isn't out already. Don't worry about yanking it out or harming these parts, said the Miele troubleshooter guy in New Jersey on the phone. They're "made from the same plastic used in football helmets."  Okey-dokey. 
This approx. 1.5" wide, blocky plastic piece is part of the "slide" that takes the brewed coffee grounds into the waste container. When positioned correctly, it looks like a block "W,"  with the "wings" ointing up, and slides in just under a brown 1.5" flat piece. A small, down-facing tab on the brown piece clicks into the "W" piece and holds it in place. The "W" should feel fairly solid, although it is not rigidly in place, as the entire mechanism is a movable system to deposit the grounds in the waste receptacle. 
Put everything back inside your CVA 4070 "love" machine, hit "on," and wait for it to go through its warm-up.  No F73 message?  Yeah!  Mission Accomplished. You, like I, have fixed your Miele, saved your family relationships, and saved yourself a bundle from unnecessary service calls.

SOURCE: Hamilton Beach BrewStation 12 cup Coffee Maker, coffee leaks into the bottom water reservoir after brewing.

there is a small rubber flap valve in the tank. if you carefully clean that on a regular basis your problem should end.

I have one of the built in Miele coffee machines; the rinse water and coffee are draining into the drip pan; no liquid is coming out any nozzles; I have cleaned everything I know; any suggestions?

Depending on the model number - it sounds like the Drain valve on the brew unit drive is stuck. This happens over time - the valve gets gummed up and then will not open and all the water that was tagged for the brew unit gets dumped into the drip tray

Miele Coffee maker CVA 615 makes clicking noise when first turned on. Grinds the coffee but the coffee will not come out. Makes the clicking noise again. It dispenses the used ground coffee correctly to...

If the Hot water and the steam function work fine - then I would say the water system and heaters are good. Are the grounds being dumped in the waste dry? I would guess so. The brew unit drive sounds to be the issue - it has a valve on it that dumps the water to waste if the pressure is to great - the waste valve sometimes gets stuck, but in your scenario it sounds as if the brew unit is not being driven to full compression (the clicking sound) and if that is the case the operation is cancelled. One thing you may try - set the grind to coarse and try a small cup - this is easier on the drive and may work - showing the Valve is good and the brew unit drive is starting to weaken.
Hope that helps

Fault F 17 appears when in use. Starts grinding the beans but no coffee in the cup yet. What does F17 mean?

f 17 is no water flow. It usually occurs when the brew unit has not been cleaned regularly, when the coffee grind size is set too fine, or when oily beans are used. You can try to soak the brew unit in hot water for a while, and run water through it in the sink. Unfortunately, most cases require brew unit replacement. A properly cleaned and maintained brew unit should last the life of the machine.
