I have the same issue, still looking for the root cause. So far i've fixed the microswitch, the valve and the electronics main board, the issue remains, so it's not coming from that.
I finally found what the issue was in my case. The problem was with the led indicator light on the iron (the one on the front, close to the buttons on the iron itself). This was shorted and was causing the electronics to latch the EV continuously when powered. I just removed the led and it's working fine. You just need to remove the white cable to the led on the screwed connector on the back of the iron, if you don't want to mess with disassembly the whole iron.

check the little tube that regulates the water to the holes it needs to be changed.good luck.
SOURCE: iron will not get hot
I suspect that the Irons heating element is coated with calcium, try using a couple of tablespoons of vinegar in a glass of water and let it sit overnight then rinse.

Scale buildup is unseating the rubber seal. Disassemble the iron. (Water filler hole part pulls directly forwards and can be pushed out from behind with a screwdriver.) Otherwise it's fairly straightforward. Clean scale off baseplate. Seal with silcone gasket before reassembly.

If the iron heats but steams improperly, inspect the soleplate and clean the vents (see below) and flush sediment out of the steam chamber .
If the iron produces too much or too little heat, test the electrical cord . Also test and, if needed, adjust calibration of the thermostat .
If the iron does not spray properly, inspect and clean the nozzle .
If the iron leaks or spits, clean the steam vents, nozzle, and tank.
God bless you
