I had the gasket problem also which required disassembly before I'm able to access that circular/tubular gasket which holds onto the water outlet of the removable water tank. I managed to fix that by just dropping an additional O ring which just fits nicely into the hole, and then dropped the original gasket over that. Since there is less longitudinal travel of the tubular gasket, it grips the water outlet better circumferentially. Worked.

Thank you for the disassembly video. For those who have the same problem like me: After switching on the machine it should blink slowly red (about 1x per second) during the heating up then it turns to green steady light - ready to pump the hot water. When it however shortly after switching on starts blinking red faster and never turns to green it means there is a problem with the heating. In my case it was just a bad contact for the NTC sensor which was otherwise ok (my had about 150kOhm in normal temperature).

@@mmendoz7677 (sorry for my english) to test if your problem is the same as mine, just make a short on the two littles wires that came from the board HOLD connector to the top of the coffee machine (it go behind where the caps holder is). So, more simply: disconnect the cable marked HOLD on PCB, and make a direct connexion between the two pins (a short circuit), and try to start your cofee machine. if it work, look under the cap holder (where you put your coffee caps), and check if there is a magnet on one side. if there is no magnet, you have just loose it, like me. You can buy some for some bucks on amazon/ebay/ali express, just search neodymium magnet, and look for a size who fit un the little hole under the caps holder (maybe 5mm by 3mm by 1mm, don't remember), and glue it with hot glue or super glue (test the right position, left or right, with hot glue, before make it definitive with super glue^^) Really simple to show, but hard to write^^

It has to be in the wall of the capsule drawer/holder. There is a resign over it. Take out the capsule holder and see if you have a hole inside. If yes the magnet was lost when you have clean it. If you can see the shiny resign then the magnet is still there and the sensor on the other side might be the problem.

Its a little bit mor dificult, so unscrewing the heater fron the plastic holder is the easiest way...

Dear, Adrian! Yesterday I transported a used Dolce Gusto Piccolo machine lying on its side by car. I emptied the water tank before leaving, but the pipes inside the machine and the heating unit must have contained water. I thought that the internal part worked as a closed system, but upon arrival I noticed that a small amount of water had leaked out at the joint of the machine's cover and at the power button. Is it dangerous to use? Should I let the machine dry for a few days? Perhaps is it recommended to remove the cover of the machine and check the dry condition of the inside of the machine? What do you suggest? Thanks!

Hi. Based on the simptomes you described I presume one of the capacitors on the board gone bad. In most of the cases is the bigger box looking cap on the board. If you can desolder it from the board and measure it with a multimeter. If the value written on is is higher than the value on the meter you have to change it. It is really cheap.

Hi. By running the machine w/o water you've created an air pocket. The way the pump works is that it always needs water to make vacum. Try filling in the water tank with water all the way up and run again the machine. The weight of the water could be enought to create some presure and start it again. Or just force some water into the intake when powered on. Hope my instructions help. BTW I have a video on my channel on this topic.
