Bought this model off shpock, rookie mistake didn’t fully check before purchasing.
Live quite far away and guy is refusing refund.
I’m under the impression it’s hopefully an early fix but atm I’m stuck.
Basically the unit is in good user shape..
It’s basically not spraying water out, both the jets under the brush and the hand tool jet is rubbish, squirts out in intervals very low pressure for around 1 second then stops.Brush bar is fine, heater core is fine and clean,
I can see fluid moving around tubes inside when button is pressed on main unit,around the heat module.I think my problem is the tank hose which connects to base.
It fits onto a nipple on the base, I’ve tried sticking a screw there but the water just leaks under the connection.Any help guys

Hi
Very few spares are available for these machines and no service back up at all.
Your best bet is to return it to Bissell repair comes with a guarantee. Not the best news you want to hear but at least it gets you a fully working machine.

check the bottom of the main tank
if someone has put water that’s too hot in the container the base of the container warps upward stopping the water flowing properly

Yes, that’s a problem. I generally use a wand for cleaning carpets and the effect is just superb. I don’t remember the last time I took the carpets away for cleaning.I hope you fix your problem, you can also search this blog for solutions to your problem, because as there are articles about frequent breakdowns of vacuum cleaners.

the type of carpet cleaner you are talking about is totally different. the one above is a self contained upright unit whereas yours has a long tube from the vacuum and water supply unit. both have their merits
have removed your link as it does not help the thread plus this thread is 3 years old
