Northstar Wet Steam & Hot Water Pressure Washer with Honda Engine 3000 Psi, 4 Gpm Questions & Answers
Engine runs fine, pump works,
The first thing I would check is spark on the electrodes in the burner, if you pull the transformer down from the bottom of the burner you will see two springs that touch metal poles in the bottom. You are going to have to have someone else run the machine in cold water mode (these machines will create spark in cold or hot water mode) and holding onto a long insulated screwdriver you are going to get about 1/4 inch away from each of the springs and see if a spark comes across the spring and the screw driver. Be very careful in doing this, you are playing with a lot of power. If no spark then this would indicate that you have a fuse blown or the transformer is bad. You would then proceed in checking power to the transformer. If you are getting spark then it is going to be one of the safety systems that is giving you a problem. Let me know what you find out.

Oil leak at top of pump
The oil in the pump is probably leaking because a seal is blown and water is getting into the piston housing. Take a look inside at the oil. It should be brown and translucent. If it is gray, white or milky, you have a blown oil seal. This reservoir should only be 1/3 full of non-detergent oil to begin with. Hope this helps
Low water pressure
Water inlet filter lime or dirt , 2 nozzle dirt 3
floss with o-rings valves 1 valve has dirt or broken o-ring between 1 of the valves 4 pressure control valve was not screwed. the nozzle (if it is a dirtkiller) is is broken mostly porcelain.
What is an uploader
I think you mean an UN Loader this is a valve that redirects (bypasses) the pressureized water back into the intake when you release the trigger When it is not working the machine continues to build pressure and will bog down
hope this helps
