I done this earlier today without the guide after it started to leak after descaling the machine , so i fixed it by taking valve apart an putting back together it worked once before leaking again , im just concerned it will just go again if i replace the safety valve , im wondering if scale has moved an is blocking and causing valve to leak? any ideas?
Great description! Is the water valve ever used to control brew pressure?
Great guide!, carefull the water valve has inside, two small orings, don´t loss it. Muy buena guia, hice todo lo indicado y funciono perfectamente, mi máquina comenzo a gotear agua por dentro y gracias a este manual pude encontrar la falla, que es la válvula, tengo con la maquina mas de 7 años y hasta ahora fallo, la válvula por ser de plastico no se puede reparar, pero se consiguen las partes en ereplacementparts.com. Solo un comentario la valvula tiene 2 orings pequeños, así que tengan cuidado cuando la saquen no se les pierdan.
I update my comment, the spare part for the valve has arrived (ereplacementparts.com), I replaced it and everything is perfect, I can drink my espresso again.
Actualizo mi comentario, ya me llego el repuesto de la válvula (ereplacementparts.com), lo reemplace y todo perfecto, de nuevo puedo tomar mi expresso.
