I think you should edit this and make a comment about the 3rd tab on the top. In your video it's broken off. This one tab got hurt on mine but is salvageable. This one (3rd) tab took me longer than I want to admit getting the top cover off
That tab is factory non-essential.
@@HouseDoctorRay that may be the case but it still really gave me a hard time since I didn't know it was there. That was all I was saying. The video is helping me to address this problem and figured a simple edit to call it out would possibly help others. I doubt many will come to the comments section and read this conversation.
I can't edit the video at this point. I pinned your original comment. That will help it get noticed.
@@ricer333 where is that 3rd tab?
@@jewelsmack4303 on the right side of the kcup loader mechanism, basically the real guts of the operation. If you watch the video closely where he is pointing to the tabs, you'll see one in that area that is busted off
Great video 👍
I fixed my keurig permanently by throwing it away 😆
Good move! You'll save thousands on coffee by using a regular coffee maker.
Spent $10 instead of $200. Never would have figured this out by myself. You have a new subscriber!
Awesome and thanks for the sub.
Thanks Dr Ray, I have the same Keurig you repaired in this video. I ordered the pump from Amazon for $14. It came in and I watched your video while taking the unit apart, installed the new pump, and reassembled the Keurig. I was a little apprehensive making the first cup, then I heard that wonderful whoosh at the end and knew everything was great! Thank you, thank you. No more dripping, no more pods full of water. Now my wife thinks I’m great again😎.
Your wife always thinks you're great. Congratulations on fixing your Keurig.
Thank you very much for your video! I have the same model Keurig and had the same exact issue. Called Keurig support and they were absolutely useless. Looked online and find your video. I ordered the air pump off of ebay and installed it. Now the Keurig works like new. The most helpful part of your video was showing exactly where the tabs were to take this thing apart. That saved me a whole lot of grief because this Keurig would have probably gone for a "flight check" if I didn't know where the tabs were. Really appreciate you taking the time to do this.
Glad it helped.
Thanks! Got our Keurig working again! Appreciate your video! I have a feeling I broke a few tabs on the top...lol, but it still snapped back on.
Great news! Don't worry about those broken tabs, we call those "factory non-essential".
This is my 2nd Keurig coffee maker of this model. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxBrV-RbF5Nk0Rlt9i15aao-YMzqzTG8Vf The first worked fine for more than 2 years, and I could still get a decent cup of coffee out of it if I fiddled with it when I decided to replace it. The problem I had with my first unit was this: When attempting to brew a cup of coffee, the unit would either keep brewing until the coffee was undrinkable or it would not run long enough and the coffee produced was way too strong. I cleaned the unit as best I could but it did not help. So in the end it was just too much trouble to get a good cup of coffee out of it, so I decided to replace it with a new one, which has been working great since I unpacked it.
I give you a lot of credit. I would be asking Keurig to replace it. These Keurig machines are overrated.
Yes, but the coffee is overpriced.
Thank you, I have a different model but same problem. After researching a bit, all I could find were people cleaning the needle hole. I knew when I saw your video it seemed to be the issue I have. I appreciate your thorough video it was super helpful!
Pretty easy fix. Good luck!
Happy coffee maker, happy wife! Happy wife, happy life! Thanks for the making the video!
I hear yah. We keep a spare Keurig in the basement. Momma can not be without her coffee.
Thank you for making this video. Helped me fix my Keurig that had this same problem. Replaced the pump and works like new. Thanks again.
Awesome! Glad you got it fixed.
Hi. Thank you so much for doing this video. We've got the single cup keurig, with 1 big button at the top. It's been gushing water out the bottom. Now I know how to fix it. Yay!!! Lol. Thank you again.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I was ready to spend $200 on a new machine and this $12 fix was quick and easy.
Glad you were able to fix it.
Thank you so much for this Video. I would also like to note that the disassembly process is the same for a Keurig K1500 brewer. which is what I have. I was able to change the air pump on the K1500 and fixed it as well thanks to your video. Well done!
Great news! Thanks for watching.
Oh my goodness I did it. Had to use some ingenuity to secure the pump and did not solder the wires -stripped and taped them. But it works!
Awesome! Way to go Debra.
This is the best video!! Fixed my keurig!!! Thank you!!
Awesome! Have a cup of coffee to celebrate.
thank you never did a project like this bought the soldering kit and air pump works brand new
Glad you were able to fix it.
Thank you! I ordered the replacement pump... Of course the replacement wires and hose were too short 🎉 I watched your soldering segment a few times and gave it a try... Took a bit but I got it!!! Put the machine back together. Much to my joy the whoosh sound is back.... Yay you and me...😂
Way to go Karen! You are now officially an appliance technician.
This worked!!! Thanks! Got 2 pumps for $18 on Amazon.
Glad to hear it.
AMAZING, just fixed my POS now it works like new. Thanks 😊
Great news! Glad it helped.
@@HouseDoctorRay 👍
Great info and humor at the end🤣😂
Thank you.
Thanks for sharing. Just fixed my Keurig thanks to you.
Awesome
@@HouseDoctorRay unfortunately the wife wasn’t very happy about this because she’s been eyeing the Nespressos and this was her chance to throw out our Keurig. You May get the eye roll from her!
😮
Get her the combo unit with the frother on the side
Awesome. I have also found a product called Kup-Lift to stop that annoying splashing.
I have exactly this same problem. Thanks so much for putting out this video!
I am with you on the Peet's Coffee. Their Cafe Domingo is my favorite.
Fun fact, the Starbucks founders got the idea after having Peet's coffee.
Thanks, and BTW I thought the ending was hilarious. Off to order my new pump now!
Thanks a lot. Good luck on fixing your machine.
Thanks for the video! I now need to fix the air pump after the water hose coupler disintegrated - I'm done with Keurig when this unit finally gives up the ghost!
I'd love to get rid of ours but I've been outvoted.
Thanks for the video! You have great skills. I’m just going to go ahead and get a new one lol
Well if yours is already broken you can't make it worse by trying. That's how you learn how to fix things.
@HouseDoctorRay Thank you…again lol. I put it in my cart on Amazon. So I’d just have to solder the wires then? I have a friend coming over to see if he can help with the one I have. He’s aware of the problem and being a handyman said he may have something to cut the metal “wings” off…and asked him to bring a soldering iron. After that I’ll take your advice as far as hot gluing it back in.
If all of this doesn’t do the trick…. TEA!!😂
right on , Thank you
Thanks for watching
I commend you for going to this length, but I just ended up buying a new one for 20% off. I couldn't even get the top off.
That was awesome - I wish you made house calls. LOL
I used to. I started RUclips when the Governor made everyone stay home.
@@HouseDoctorRay I appreciated the lockdowns because I have so far avoided Covid.
Mine's doing the same thing. Only about a year old. We remodeled our kitchen last year, and bought a white Keurig to match the decor. Time to break out the old one which we never had a problem with. Good video, but me and plastic tabs don't play well together. I'll have every one of them broken off and end up throwing it away. 🤣🤣🤣
Next time you're at the VFW get a hold of one of the AF Vets to try it. Their hands are still soft and delicate from the climate controlled dormitories.
😉
☕ I bought this coffee maker for Christmas, if I have a problem I will know what to do ☕
Thanks for watching.
Well, I replaced my keurig air pump thanks to you!!! 🎉😊. Any tips on replacing the hose in a leaking Waterpik handle? I e bit the handle/ hose part off, just can’t get enough leverage to pop the handle open TYIA!
The ending 😂, like what?!!
Right?
Is it possible to find a pump with the cables already attached? I have no clue how to solder!
It is not that hard to solder but if you properly twist and tape the wires it will work fine.

Mine dispenses hot water fine but when a pod is in. It only makes noise then turns off after a few seconds. Any thoughts?
Run straight vinegar through it and let it sit full of vinegar overnight.
Next day turn it over and smack it like it stole from you.
Then run water through it to flush out the mineral deposits.
Might be the main pump which is different from the air pump.
www.amazon.com/Keurig-Main-Pump-B30-B31/dp/B00DI27SRA/ref=sr_1_14?dchild=1&keywords=keurig+water+pump&qid=1628807570&sr=8-14
My 2.0 k200 is doing the same thing. But my question is why is there water coming out of the air pump? Has to be some other problem leading to this.
The air pump pressurizes the water tank and blows out the pod at the end. That's why when they are working properly the pods don't drip at the end of a cycle. I think they just burn out.
I have this exact issue. I own the Keurig 2.0 - how do I know which air pump to buy?
Open it up and see which pump you have. Then order the one you need.
I bought the wrong reusable k cup and now it’s stuck in the cup assembly housing 😭 how do I take it apart ??
The front wrap around piece of the pod holder comes off pretty easily. You need to squeeze it and wiggle it to get it to pop off. Maybe search for a video on cleaning the pod area. It's designed to come off for cleaning.
Be careful of the needle up top, it is very sharp. There is also a tiny o-ring around the needle, if you lose that o-ring the machine will leak.
My keurig starts releasing water from the top as (as it is brewing)soon as I turn it on.
There should be a little o-ring around the sharp point that punctures the top of the pod. Make sure that is there.
I found some disgusting things in my keurig. I took mine apart down to the heating unit and found inside the heating unit a plastic part of it (swirl pattern inside and at the top), that would crumble in each area you touched it. Disgusting. Also, the top of the heating unit was clogged with what looked like soft melted tubing. Basically, my keurig had a heart attack from a blocked artery. I’m saving two pumps but tossing out the rest.
We run a few cups of straight vinegar through ours every few weeks. Once the vinegar fills the inards we leave it for a few hours to kill any nasties and dissolve any mineral deposits.
I’ve looked all over and can’t find the same pump in the video. If you have the same pump would you consider selling it? Cant afford a new Keurig and certainly not Starbucks every day! lol
Try this
Keurig Air Pump - straight amzn.to/39GjwMY
Link to pump with ears says not available. Any chance you have an alternate link? Looked on Amazon, only found a Keurig V700 model for..... (!) $49.99 for the pump! Thanks in advance!
I would go with the straight one and use zip ties or something similar to hold it in place. It's not something that moves around so I'm sure if you secure it well it isn't going to come loose.
@@HouseDoctorRay thanks. I'd much prefer to have a replacement air pump here when i take it apart, so that it can be fixed when it's put back together.
Mine is a 525 model if that matters. Been pretty trouble free, but I'm single and it doesn't even get used every day.
@@HouseDoctorRay Finally took my 525 apart. It has a larger air pump in it, probably the $50 model. Not worth messing with for that amount of money. Was worth a try. Time for a new Keurig and sending this to E waste. :-(
Where can you buy a Keurig for $50? I'll get a spare today.
@@HouseDoctorRay No, just the air V700 air pump is $50. Not worth it, in my opinion. Bought a new machine today at Costco for $139.99.
Hi. I have the exact keurig w the exact problem. Took 2 hrs to take it apart. (Which I can now say after it’s over is fine lol) I ordered the same part from Amazon and I let it sit here (out of fear) for a couple of weeks. Once I removed the pump from the machine, I saw that the new pump had metal flanges on it for lack of a better word, but there’s no way in hell it fit in my Keurig. The seller said he would still take it back. But can I ask who you got your pump from? Do you remember the seller ?because now I’m stuck with a shell of a Keurig. PLEASE HELP!! I can send pictures if you need. Thank you.!!!
Check the video description. Mine took the one with the ears. Not currently available.
If you get the straight one you can just zip tie or hot glue it to something inside.
@@HouseDoctorRay Thanks. I don’t see any straight ones. This one has metal “wings”. I’d need a sawsall!!
Try this one

Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!
71 yrs old, just told my 74 yo brother I fixed the air pump in my Keurig thanks to you!!! His reply?
“What the hell is an air pump in a Keurig?”
I’m sharing your video w him just to show off! 😂
Thank you again!
Didn’t fix mine. Btw, you can test your pump by holding a 9 volt battery to the prongs on the pump to see if it runs.
Great tip. Thanks for posting.
@@HouseDoctorRay keep up the good work. You’ve helped me outta some jams in the past.
Thats scary, think I'll just buy a new one!
If it's already broken you have nothing to lose by at least trying to take it apart.
I'd be curious to know how much these cheap Keurig machines have contributed to landfills. I've been through 5 or 6 Keurig branded machines. Although I'll continue with the k-cups, I'm not buying a "Keurig" machine again. Although I have that exact model, and I'm sure I can handle the replacement. I'm done with Keurig machines. mediocre quality and almost zero ideas since the original years ago.
Truth!
Worked but nowhere near as easy as it looked in this vid. More tabs you cannot see along the silver part where it meets up with the black cover you are trying to remove. The one at the top rear right side is a pain in the @$$. I broke it but fortunately it did not preclude the reassembly, appearance or function. Once apart it is easy to replace the pump and put the unit back together. I just used a couple of Wago wire connectors.
Glad you got it fixed. Good idea with the Wagos.
I watched your whole video and was very informative but I dont think she said anything to make it about her.
I'm going to try this. Thank you. Ending really disappointing how you treated your wife or daughter. Ouch! Work on that respect and anger. Wow!
Theatrics
Nice vid with nasty ending! Be nice to your videographer. No joke.
Not to worry, she was laughing at me the whole time. She is the one who told me to put it in the final cut.
@@HouseDoctorRay Hmmm...
Well here are gospel scriptures fyi:
Acts 2:38 Acts 22:16 Mark 16:16
May God bless you...
Thank you. May God bless you as well.
I felt a little underlying rage right at the end towards your wife. Like you were abou to throw a smack down. . .
FIRST try cleaning the needles before you go taking the entire machine apart - chances are good that's all it needs!
