My espresso machine decided to stop flowing the water through the head, and instead seems to distribute through the steaming wand. I assume it's a valve, or switch, but don't know where to go for assistance.
Can you recommend someone for help?
Is this a good question?

If water is coming through the steam wand then either the valve isn't closed all the way or there's something preventing it from forming a tight seal. You may need to remove the top of the machine and adjust the steam knob stopper so that the valve will close far enough to stop the flow of water. This should redirect all of the pressure to the brew head. If you still have leaking you may have a piece of scale or other debris on the steam valve seal preventing it from closing all the way, in which case you would need to remove the steam knob/shaft assembly so you can clean off the teflon seal.
