Keurig Coffee Maker All Lights Blinking — internal water flow or sensor fault
Keurig Coffee Maker · Error code All Lights Blinking
What All Lights Blinking Means
When all indicator lights flash simultaneously, the brewer has detected an internal fault — typically a clog, air lock, or thermal sensor problem preventing a normal brew cycle. Common across K-Classic, K-Mini, K-Slim and K-Elite.
Symptoms
- All buttons/lights flashing together
- Brewer unresponsive to button presses
- No water pumping
- Brewer powers on but won't complete a cycle
Common Causes
Pump cannot prime after reservoir was run dry
Mineral buildup blocking flow
Overtemperature lockout has tripped
Vibratory solenoid pump no longer moves water
How to Fix It
- Power off and unplug for 5 minutes to reset the control board
- Remove the reservoir, empty, and refill with fresh water; reseat firmly
- Lift the handle and clean the entrance and exit needles with a paper clip
- Run several water-only brew cycles to purge air
- If still flashing, perform a descale with Keurig solution
- Burp the pump: invert the unit over a sink and tap firmly on the bottom for 30 seconds to dislodge air or scale, then run a water cycle
- If lights still flash after descale and burping, the pump or control board has failed
