    I have the same problem. One day it worked, the next time I used it the steam shot out the side. I am in the process of taking it apart to clean it with vinegar. I will let you know if that works.

    I have the same problem. The steam is coming out of a hole on the side of the machine and not at the bottom. I have only used it 6 months.

Bissell steam mop water filter will not work even though it's new
Either it is installed incorrectly or there may be a leak or clog before or after the filter. Double check your connections and check for clogs.

Why is vax s7-a+steam mop steamer dripping water and cuts on and off
I managed to fix mine after a little effort. It was blocked well up in the nozzle into a small pinhole where the steam comes out of the 'small kettle' in the steam mop.
To fix:
  • take the blue side bit off by unscrewing the two small screws
  • Undo the screws inside (there are about 11)
  • Once these were undone there was two screws holding the nozzle cover.
  • After unscrewing these pull the nozzle cover of and scrape limescale from inside the small hole where the steam comes out
  • Put it all back together and it should work much better
You should only really do this if you are competent as there are lots of wires etc. and if your steam mop is not covered under warranty as messing around with it will void this.

Hope this helps :)

My Europro shark steam mop won't steam, light on but no steam.
Hard water deposits. I ran some white vinegar through mine, like a coffee maker, and it worked for a while, but clogged again. So I unplugged it, let it cool and turned it over in the bathtub and squirted a small amount of Lime-Away into the hole where the steam comes out. Let it soak for 5- 10 minutes and it is working like is is brand new.
