Check to ensure carafe is sitting correctly on keep-hot plate. If carafe is removed from the proper position during the brewing cycle for more than twenty seconds, this problem is likely to occur.

On model 49983, after 2 years use, it is leaking internally from deep in the bottom. Does water flow through the clear hoses? If so, perhaps one of the clamps is not sealing properly. I see now that the hose is off.

The problem on model 49983, the hose came off by itself over time and the pipe it goes on is not easily accessable. It is a deep problem. You need about a foot long needle nose pliers. I am still working on trying to get the hose on. Not easy.

Cannot see the answer on how to fix it- does the back pop off?
