If the water still squirts out of the hose but not the bottom, then its probably blocked in the heater. Quite a common fault.

The pump belt could be worn, very common on these.

In that case I’d definately check for a blockage in the heater.

Re: Bissell 1698-k

we get a lot of pumps failing due to customers putting them away without flushing tubes through with clean water

in insructions it states you should turn dial to water only to flush machine through at the end

agree with above heater gets blocked but will normally still pump through hose if this is the case

if you still get problems repost and i will ask the member of staff who does a lot of these
