Sticky pump difficult to click valve to start pumping

[Kurt0726]

Hello all. I was installed with a titan touch about 3 months ago during a revision surgery. I had genesis pump before.
I am having the hardest time getting this thing to work consistently. Half the time it works fine e with no problems. The other half of the time I cannot initiate the the first pump. In other words it doesn't "click" or pop to set it into inflate mode. I have started to give it one pump after I deflate just to prep it like the manual says. But still half the time it doesn't "click" over.. I have to hit the deflate valve a couple times and then pump and then it clicks over.
Is this just due to a new pump than needs "broken in" ? It certainly hasn't gotten better at all. Anyone else experiencing this? Wtf do I do about it cause its driving me nuts

I have an AMS LGX 700. Mine does the same thing sometimes. I just push the release button and then it will reset.

Yes pushing the release valve works on my titan as well. The problem I have to do it about half the time I try to use the pump. My concern is that I am putting unnecessary wear and tear on the pump. I'm also concerned the pump isn't working g the way it is supposed to/advertized.

Anyone else experiencing similar problems???

I've a new AMS pump and it is doing the same some times. It is scary as I just had a revision.
Try to sit in the bathtub in warm water and see if it helps.

My AMS didnt work reliably till about month 5. Now when I want to use it, I hit the deflate button and squeeze all the saline out of the implant. The inflate valve "pops" first time, almost everytime if I follow that process. It just needs to be broken in.

Mine too, not all the time but sometime it takes two or three times to get it to release.

It is scary, and sometimes make me panic. I hope my AMS pump gets better.
Has anyone heard of MS Pump failures right off the bat?

I have an ams Cx installed on January. Pump stopped working about 1 months ago. Issue started as deflation problem and now it stopped working at all. Tomorrow I'll have my revision surgery to replace the pump.
