Does Not Brew...blue Light Blinks

I have had one of these for about a year. Now when I press the bold or reg button, the blue light blinks 5 times then goes out.  The machine does nothing after that.  Any ideas what could be wrong

It means the water level is too high or the sensor is not working.

My original HB The Scoop Single-Serve Cofeemaker did this after about a year, so I replaced it and the replacement did the same thing within a month. I'd purchased the extended warranty on the second one, but the warrantor indicated the manufacturer's warranty would cover it. I just got off the phone with HB, who indicated they have not flagged this as a problem with this model (49981A). They offered to replace if I paid $11.99 in shipping and sent them a photo of the coffeemaker showing that I had cut the electric cord.
