Dear Falk, I can't tell you how grateful I am that you posted this. I have 4 different broken things in my house right now and when I couldn't get water after changing my filters, it made me so nervous! This was the fix!!! You are the best!! I'm a subscriber now!
Thanks, but just to let you know on my model, I have read that there has been a failure regarding a filter defect. The filters are being reported to be shorter, causing them to be pushed down under pressure. Thus causing what you are experiencing. I have replaced mine 3 times and yesterday I started experiencing the same problem you are seeing. I have read that a fix is to put a rubber washer under the filter. The factory should replace your filter, they know there is a problem. Call em up! I have some rubber O-rings, think I will give it a try!
That is a great idea. I will try that if it starts failing. To tell you the truth, I'm using an aftermarket brand, so I figured that is why I am having issues.
Thank you for your video! I struggled to get a flow going even after re-inserting the filters multiple times. It seems like turning the supply valve on slowly, then the filter valve on slowly, letting it run a while, then opening both valves up fully really did the trick. I've gone through multiple filters with this system with no issues until the time before last. Maybe as one person responded, the new filters are somewhat shorter than they were engineered to be. In that case a washer placed under the filter might work. I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks again!!
wow thank you so much I was struggling with this issue for hours today and your advice helped me fix the issue quickly. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU 🙏
Ran into this with my 3 filter unit. Ramming the filters into the tops before screwing them in has restored service for now. Thank you!
Makes me feel good this has helped others.

Glad it helped! Don't feel you need to subscribe, I just like to post random things that interest/bother me.
Thanks this fixed it for me too. Had to push the filter into place

That does make sense. I'm keeping the washer idea in mind as another option.
