Worked ok for about an hour then just stopped and will now not switch back on, replaced fuse just to check if it had blown and for about 2 sceonds it started then went off again.
You need to check you nozzle for blockage or wrong size you could be throwing the overload switch on the motor

Dear jimbocom,
The problem is that the spill valve got stuck. When the machine is working and the gun is closed, a valve( spill valve) moves with the accumilated pressure and switches the machine off. So what happened is that when the spill valve did its job, it found no water...and remained stuck. This leaving the machine in an off position. Service and lubrication to the spill valve must be done or completely replacing with a new spill valve. In my opinion you have no serious damage, but this job must be carried out by an expirienced technician.
Regards,
MG.

Its possible that the on/off switch is defective. It happened to mine. It made the click sounds like it was switching but it really wasn't. The part number is 90010480. You can get one here: http://www.pressureparts.com/catalogsear...
