La Cimbali Junior has no output at the grouphead.
Their are four posible reasons for above problem as follows.
First the Vibarating pump not creating pressure, usaly if here the sound it is pressing but not always. You can loose the pipe nut after the pump to see if you have any pressure after you press the coffee button. Be carefull with the water leaking.
Second the coffee solenoid valve that is on the grouphead might be stuck from dry coffee, it can be removed and cleaned with hot water and a wire brush.
Third the coffee group shower and inside round dish might also blocked from dry coffee, remove it and clean it.
Finnaly the more difficult problem might be that heat excanger that is bettween the headgroup and boiler is full off scale. So you must remove group and clean both group and heat excanger and the copper pipes to them.
This problem is the more difficult to be performed however is the most posible.
Good luck,

Delonghi Ecam 23.450S heating up please wait
'heating up please wait...' and that's it, suggests a fault with either a sensor or a control board... and in today's market, who could ever guess which?
I'm sorry this is far more philosophical than technical. I really hate to say this. Still, if any half-way modern appliance has given you 15 years' service, what more would you have expected?
Traditionally, you would have taken any faulty gizmo to a local repair expert, who would have fixed it for a charge greatly less than any replacement cost.
Today, it's almost inconceivable that the cost of even diagnosing, let alone fixing any fault would be comparable to the cost of replacing (whatever) with a new one.
Ants in my Keurig
I had the same problem after getting a Keurig model 525C and took it back to Costco, with ants still in the coffee maker. I haven't had this problem with other Keurig coffee makers. Keurig needs to come clean and admit THEY have a problem with at least one of their coffee makers.
Why red light on senseo coffee machine blinks on one water level?
When the waterlevel gets high enough, a small magnet will float in a compartment at the bottom right, of the reservoir and give off the signal to a sensor.
Those floats either leak or corrode over time. What you describe can occur when it is pointing its magnetism in the wrong direction or even when it chooses to raise on its own terms. It is difficult to remove and replace those. Perhaps you can work the clamp loose, remove it and then fool the machine into thinking there is water, with another magnet attached. I have done it. You can see better if the float can be restored, when removed. Mostly it is both cracked open and filled with rust.
I get an E 1 message on my Kambrook induction plate. I am using a stainless steel bottomed pot.
Induction Cookers require electromagnetic iron or steel to work. That means that if you bring a magnet near the metal side in contact with the induction spiral then it is magnetic. Get a magnet and see if it sticks to the metal. If it does then it is magnetic and will induce eddy currents to heat up the metal from the oscillating magnetic field. Aluminium won't work and neither will most stainless steel. I likes raw steel, say like a wok pot for example or pots made specifically for induction cooking.
Breville barista express pump won't stop? How to fix
Things you might try but turn it off before attempting repair.:
Check the flow meter and sensor: Open the machine and locate the flow meter and the sensor. Unplug the sensor and check the cables for any loose or rusty connections. Clean the connector and plug it back in.
Replace the flow meter and sensor: If the problem persists after checking and cleaning the connections, consider replacing the flow meter and the sensor.
Use manual or program mode: As an alternative, you can use the manual or program mode to control the water volume.
