Keurig Coffee Maker Prime Error Code
| ERROR | MEANING/LIKELY CAUSES |
|---|---|
| 1 | Brew Tank TCO is Open (no Heater on brew tank). Likely Causes: Draining and forgetting to refill. |
| Or Bad Triac. | |
| 2 | Preheat Tank TCO is Open (no Heater on preheat tank. Likely Causes: Draining and forgetting to refill. |
| Or Bad Triac. | |
| 3 | The Brewer must be descaled now: |
| When U dispense cycles in a row take longer than expected to brew, the brewer displays this error message. This error message lets the user know damage may occur if they do not descale now. | |
| 4 | The float switch is lower than it should be while the CWT net valve is open and the time limit is exceeded. |
| Likely Causes: Inlet water disconnected. Or low water pressure. | |
| Or Inlet Valve not opening. | |
| 5 | The float switch is sensed higher than it should be during a brew cycle. The inlet valve might be stuck open, and the Float Switch is now preventing flooding. |
| Likely Causes: Leaky/Stuck Inlet Valve. Or CWT level sensor stuck high. | |
| 6 | The Preheat Tank thermistor reading is <37°F. The heater will not turn on until it reads above this threshold. This is to protect against damage. |
| Likely Causes: The brewer just stored at cold temperature. | |
| Or bad Thermistor. | |
| 7 | Same as above for Brew Tank. |
| 8 | Thermistor in the Preheat Tank reads >240°F Likely Causes: Problems with thermistor. |
