i have a reliable iron maven and it will not steam only after a few uses. the anti calc system light will not come on and the orange steam light will not come on. the iron heats up.

It might be a great iron, would be even better if you had said what make/model it was. Also, here's a tip, always keep the receipt in a place where you can find it again, Doh!
