Yeah I had a controller issue as well but since I have mine on a timer and
only made 1 latte each time it came on I didn't realize it. When my timer
turned the machine on it would run for 30 to 60 seconds and then stop. Even
steaming milk the pump didn't come back on, the only time the pump came on
is when I moved the brew lever. Now when I'm steaming milk the pump will
come on and it also comes on in short bursts throughout the day.
