Coffee Slowly Drips From K-cup

Cleaned machine 4 times with vinegar. Works great for hot water and brew when k-cup not in but she k-cup is placed in machine it only dribbles a bit then stops. I've cleaned everything including the exit needle. Is it fixable or landfill.?

Requests for more information

I did make sure the handle was down. Just seems odd that it works great without the pods.

After placing the K-Cup® in the K-Cup® Holder, make sure the handle is pushed down securely and the LCD control panel reads READY. If the issue persists or if you require further explanation, you'll have to consult Cuisinart: use the contact information at https://www.contacthelp.com/cuisinart/customer-service.
