If the pump is not working properly on your coffee machine, then you need to remove and repair it, or replace it. This guide will show you how to do it.
You will have to open the machine quite a bit. The pictures are taken from a Saeco Royal Sup 014, but the repair is similar for machines of the Royal Magic Stratos series.
Note: In this repair guide, the whole thermoblock has been removed. It can easily bei done, allowing a straightforward removal of the pump, but you can skip these steps.
These instructions may also help with other Saeco models and with coffee makers from Philips and Gaggia—they are all made by the same manufacturer and have a very similar design.

-
There is a black rubber lid under the bean hopper that you can easily lift off, leaving a large opening.

The adjuster of the grinder has to be solved. Mark the position or just take a picture. This type is fixed with a screw, others are only sticked together.

-
-
There are two screws to be turned out.
-

The screws are situated on the underneath of the cover. This type is held by four screws.
-
-
-
Now the cover can be raised: first grip on left and right rear side and lift about 10 cm (4 in). Sometimes the cover jams a little bit.
-
Solve the hoses which lead to the water tank. Perhaps you have to pull out some contacts, (e.g. the yellow-green protection lead), don´t forget to put them on again later.
-
The cover can be drawn aslant towards the front, sliding it over the hot water pipe.
-
Most repairs can be done with the cover being laid up partially , it must not be completely removed.

A look into the open device. The thermoblock is hidden under a pile of cables and tubes.
-

It's safer to number the cable connectors on the electronics. You probably just need to disconnect the slightly hidden # 14 connector on the two green cables at the very bottom and # 7 on the blue cable on the top.

The thermoblock is attached to the wall behind the brew group with only two Phillips screws.

-
The Allen screw, which holds the holder of the two thermocouples, was not easy to open...
-
Therefore, the plug on the electronics with the two green cables was pulled out. The plug has the mark 14 and is at the very bottom of the electronics.

Disconnect the plug with the yellow-green grounding wire from the support valve.
-
-
-
Thread the green and blue cables out.
