Is water coming out of the hot water nozzle? Has there been any cleaning with tablets recently? Is the chute free? Is a filter being used (first get out with the shit and try without)?

Hello and thank you! There's
no water coming out of the nozzle. One hears that the machine tries to "pump" water but nothing comes out. It was cleaned
some time
ago

I

the filter

.

The shaft

's clear, too.

Hi,

I have an ENA Micro 9 and a similar problem. During rinsing, the machine found it difficult to pass the water through. Occasionally the display showed that the system had to be filled - which only partly worked. I then disassembled the machine and checked all the hoses (i.e. just those where I got it) ...from the water tank via flowmeter to the pump and from the outlet valve back to the brewing unit. Right in between so ceramic valve and further I did not test. (I would have had to dismantle the whole machine)......no matter. ....I then carried out another decalcification although I had always decalcified regularly. But since we have a very high lime content here - I did not take the recommended dose but used the ratio 3:1.
Only then did the machine flush clean again. So there must have been some deposit in the device
.
Good luck

Hi,

I had the same problem, and agree that it is most likely a blocked pipe. Here’s my no-screwdriver fix:

I suspected limescale blockage, so half filled the reservoir with water plus 3 descaler tablets. Then I pressed the bean button to suck water into the system and repeated at intervals over 24 hours.

My thought process was that if you leave the descaler long enough to sit in the pipes, the head of the water will dissolve whatever’s there.

For good measure, I then ran a further couple of descaler and cleansing cycles through the system.

Have had success with two constipated Jura machines tongue.gif

I am having this issue as well with a Jura Ena Micro 5. I removed the side panels to see what I could notice while starting up the unit, but all I get is an extended pumping noise (and I can see and feel that the pump is trying to do something) but after about 5-10 seconds, the machine shows alternating flashing between the one bean and three bean symbols. In the troubleshooting section of the manual this error code shows Cause: "the system must be filled with water" and Action:"Fill the tank with water", but the tank IS filled with water. Then it says Action:"touch the 1 bean or 3 bean symbol and the system will fill with water." But Ive tried this repeatedly, and neither the 1 or 3 bean symbol fixes this and I am back at square one.

I dont know if it could have anything to do with the machine expecting a filter to be in the water tank. Currently, there is no filter. I suppose I could put a filter in and test it again.

There are various water hoses that are visible in the back of the machine, but I did not see any water flowing through them when attempting this process repeatedly.

I have not tried the descale tablet method yet, but Im not sure what that is going to do if no water seems to be entering the system at all.

Any ideas other than : 1) Try the filter? 2) Try the descale tab method?

I decided to replace the water pump. That fixed the issue right quick. Now to clean and refurbish the brew group.
