New to these forums... but been having great coffees from my Em5600 for approx 6 months now! 
Recently acquired a second hand Em6910.
Was not a particularly well looked after machine, so been given a good clean inside and out and descaled, reset to factory presets, but...
When pressing the manual button the pump only works for a few seconds... occasionally is will deliver the full preset of 240mls, but this is only about 1:10 presses.
Same issue when using the one shot/two shot buttons... will not deliver the proper dose... or indeed ANY dose at times...
I think this may be a stuffed controller board... am I right?
Is it fixable?
Am I wrong?
If I'm wrong - what are the other possibilities?
Are they fixable?
....or should I just throw it as a bad joke?
