Thanks for your comment. We were able to fix it; the group head was completely clogged. We did the 2nd part of what you said, carefully cleaning and then putting it all back together again. :)
Your problem may not be a disconnected wire. The insides look exact the same as my Gaggia Evolution, so there is no electro-magnetic valve that opens and closes by turning on the pump.
You may disassemble the bottom part of the brew group (dispersion screen; dispersion plate; the valve (CAREFUL! theres a tiny spring with a rubber head! Don't lose it!!)) and clean it.
Or you may want to open the whole brew group and descale it.
the water pump is out of date and should be covered by warranty. check the date on the pump. don't get scammed!!! I've repaired this kind before.
