Ameda Purely Yours

Does anyone else have this?  Mine just magically stopped working and I am looking for troubleshooting ideas.  I checked all the connections and the flanges are in place.  I seriously feel like my boobs are going to explode.

  • Try a different power outlet? Never had an issue with mine. Go get a hand pump pronto.

  • I tried a different outlet. It turns on, it just has little to no suction.

     I have a hand pump, but it's at home and I am currently at work :-/  I am heading over to BRU right after work with warranty in hand.

  • Even if you turn the suction all the way up? After a week I had to jack that suction way up for it to do anything. Even if that works, I'd still bust out that warranty since I'm sure it wasn't designed to do that.

  • I'm sure you've done this but check that the membranes are pushed in secure (the small white discs that drip milk into the bottle). That's what creates the tension/suction. If they're in, the tubes are in secure, and the shields are in snug too, you may have a hole in your tube. It may just take replacement tubing. If the motor's running and it's brand new I doubt it's a mechanical issue. GL!

    ETA: there's always an empty water bottle and your hand for immediate relief. 

  • Agreed about checking the discs in back had the same issue with my freestyle I didn't click them in securely. 
  • Mine did this when the tubing came out just a little... did you make sure the tubing is pushed in all the way? I haven't had a problem with mine...
  • Thanks for you help ladies!  I stepped away from it for a little bit and came back to realize one of the diaphragms  was missing from one side.  I left it in the sink at work the last time I cleaned it out.  Whoops!
