If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

If you undo the radiator cap does it pop back out?
There are 2 valves in the radiator cap.
One (2 in picture) lets the expanded hot water go out into the expansion tank, the other (3) lets the water that flowed out back in as the engine cools, looks like this one is stuck and you are not getting the water to flow back from the tank.
