On our K50 Elite, the lid is held on with 2 screws, and two tabs (which I broke off) near the rear. I think to remove the lid, you first take out the 2 screws, under the cover on the front, and then slide the lid backwards to clear the tabs. I attached the rear of the lid by 2 spots of hot glue where the tabs used to go. I also removed the handle before removing the lid.

The K40 unit I was trying to fix was leaking from the top inside the unit. When I took it apart (rocking did not work, there were two screws under the front and it slid back easily when they were removed) the curved piece with the reinforcement housing was loose so that water was pumped into the housing whenever coffee was being made. That resulted in a flooded counter and a tripped circuit breaker!

I ran a zip tie from the crossbar of the reinforcement assembly to a brace on the tank and that made it much less likely to come loose and now the Keurig works as it was meant to do.

Clarification: The curved piece of tubing with the reinforcement housing was loose.

Passo 3

Keeping one hand firmly placed on the device, tug upwards on the water pump until it is separated from the device.
The water pump and pipe should now be loose and easy to move as shown.

Passo 4

Pull on the point where the pipe meets the water pump.
The pipe will come loose and the water filter will be free and ready to be replaced.

My keurig doesn’t pump any water what is wrong

What you just pulled out is NOT the water pump, nor is it a filter. It is a check valve,. A check valve a device that allows water to flow in only one direction.

The filter is located in the external water tank. The pump is located inside the Keurig and is not readily accessible.

Great guide but I think it should be renamed… It’s not a Pump that this guide talks about, it’s a Check Valve.
