SOURCE: Water will not come out to do floor work

HI, I have a very similar Bissell. My problem was that after unscrewing the top plate and looking at the pipes the pipes feeding the front sprays were full of gunge blocking the sprayheads. I managed to flush it through by carefully removing the T connector that feeds the front 2 pipes, placing it back so it stuck out of one of the holes and replacing the water tank and turning on while holding it over a bucket. Black and white bits came out but it did flush through. I am thinking of doing a youtube video - let me know if this will help you!

The brushes will only work if the handle is released and the ProHeat vacuum is running . There is a micro switch inside the lower handle that switches on the DC carpet brush motor. The DC power for the motor comes from a Bridge Rectifier on the PC Board. [email protected]

SOURCE: bissell carpet cleaner does not have suction like it should

Try checking the lint filter. It is located in the top clear plastic section (the one with the dial to switch from floor to tool use) and is on the underside. It is a small (1 inch square) red plastic filter with a door on it. Flip open the door and it is probably clogged with hair, carpet fibre, etc.. Clean it out and you should have full suction once again.

SOURCE: We have a spot bot that leaks almost the entire

Hi rvo... the nozzle activator (pin that depresses the clean water nozzel) is probably clogged with "gunk". It is easy to remove with a pair of tweezers or needle nose pliers.. rise it under water and reseat in the unit. If this maintenance does not solve the problem I recommend that you take it into your local vacuum repair shop as you may have an internal problem causing this annoying leak. Joe

Thanks for choosing Fixya!

Deep clean rug doctor doesnt suck up any water.

They all have a device to cut off suction when the waste tank is full. It is normally a ball that floats up and block the suction. Yours is stuck. The manual doesn't show it.

https://www.rugdoctor.com/wp-content/uploads/Pro-Deep-Carpet-Cleaner-Manual.pdf

If it is this model, it is in the bottom of that black fitting in the top centre.

Why am I not receiving the same return of water after cleaning?

The rug will absorb a lot of water during cleaning. This is normal. If you have a suction problem look to see if the safety valve has stopped because the dirty water tank is full.

My dyson dc 16 hand held vacume stops & starts while in use, each time you pull the trigger it will start again but then stops after a short while untill i pull the trigger again.

Cutting out can be due to a few things , motor overheating due to dirty filter, Faulty mains cable or plug..sealed type also..Faulty Switch/trigger.May need to seek pro help to fix.

Floor attachment does not suction, no clog in the hose, hand held works when dettached from floor attachment

Have you checked the floor head? Use a pipe cleaner or twisted metal to carefully and gently see what's in there. It sounds like dirt or something has definately sealed up the main suction channel.
