After plumbing the machine in, I found that the steam boiler wouldn't fill. I know this issue has been covered in many threads over the years and for my sins I have read ALL OF THEM. Nothing has worked.
I have:
- stripped down, cleaned/descaled everything in this diagram:
- Cleaned the 90degree boiler inlets, descaled the boiler and element while I was there (I wont upset you with the details)
- Checked that the pump isn't obstructed by connecting water with the pipe from the pump disconnected from the rest of the assembly.
- Checked the gicleur solenoid activates
- Bypassed the water filter in case that was restricting flow
I'm at the end of my rope. What could I have missed??
Thanks in advance
