140 psi, that's a bit on the high side and your RODI system is at risk of bursting a seam! This your normal house pressure? Most houses have a Pressure Reducing Valve somewhere to bring city pressure down to about 60-70 psi. In any case, if you have that much pressure & no output from either waste or product line, sounds to me like something's plugged up downstream of the membrane?

Not familiar with your brand of unit, but in many cases the flow restrictor is built into the outlet fitting on the membrane housing. On my system it's part of a manual flush valve plumbed in downstream of the RO membrane.
