Think I’ve finally solved the blinking light on my DCC-3000. After brewing the vinegar solution, before you run the 12 cups of clear water through to flush the vinegar, push the “1-4” button (even though you’re running 12 cups) and start the coffeemaker. The clean light should not start blinking again. You should only have to do that once on the rinse right after cleaning the unit. Good luck!

Pushing the 1-4 button, as instructed above, worked for me. Must be a "reset" for the coffee maker computer.

I spoke too soon, mine is flashing again. pushing 1-4 did not work.

Clean with the vinegar and water like always, when done running and the cleaning light is still on , turn off brewer and pour the hot vinegar and water back into the reserve and make sure the cleaning light is on not flashing and brewer again. Do this three times in a row if needed.. when clean , the cleaning light will go out and shut off the coffee pot. Then just rinse with clean water. This work for me. I hope it helps you. ☕️

Hello Taylor990,

It would appear that your coffee make is still sensing that it is dirty. The following link will show you how to clean it and descale it using white vinegar and water. Please note that the models used are not the same but the process is the same as yours is with minor differences!

The part of your manual dealing with cleaning can be seen here!

Hope this helps!

Good Luck!

THanks for the response. I have repeated this process for three days ,twice each day. The coffee maker is still showing flashing clean. I only had the machine a few months. I will try some CLR to see if that will work

. If not I will send it back for a replacement. I have my manual ,and I followed the direction with no luck.

Taylor, think I've solved the problem. Just posted a possible solution.

Cleaned 3 times. Why won’t my clean light go off.

To turn off my model, cuisinart coffee, maker red clean light after cleaning I unplugged and replugged in coffee maker, place a cup under the single cup dispenser, pressed and held the 6 and 8 cup buttons, simultaneously, until the red light flashes. At this point the coffee single serve dispensed 10 cups of cold water into the cup. The red light went out. Unsure about other models but worth a try.
