The bag may have been punctured when installing the valve into the spout. Be careful to keep the bag away from the piercing area and the sides of the bag. Look for small cuts in the bag where cheese is leaking out.
First, make sure that there is sauce in the bag. Check to make sure the temperature reading is at or above 140°F. Sauce flows very slowly when it is cold.
Lift up on the front of the bag looking to make sure the valve is seated in the receiving plate when you place it back down.
If the dispensing button does not engage, you may have a stuck valve. This can be easily fixed by replacing the valve. To get started, have a disposable valve from the product case ready. Unwrap the valve from the plastic overwrap, careful not to expose the valve to contamination.

The slider on the valve may not be returning completely to the closed position, or it may be caught on the receiving plate. Remove the bag from the dispenser. Wipe the exterior of the bag with a clean damp cloth. Hold bag with valve pointed up. Carefully remove the receiving plate from the valve and replace it in the bottom of the dispenser. Make sure the valve slides back and forth easily. Close the valve and replace the bag in the dispenser.
If the bag continues to leak excessively, more than a few drops immediately after sauce has been dispensed, remove the bag, and replace it with a new bag – making sure valve is locked in place in the spout and slider valve is moving freely.
