Machine w/not squirt

Our machine, 7901 series Pro Heat will no longer squirt the water/cleaner although it hs no problem with suction. It seems to be heating the fluids. Bladder is not empty; SmartMix bottle was not empty. Filter is not clogged. Pump hasn't lost prime. The pump belt is not cracker or broken.

Royal pro series carpet cleaner, new only used once. Tried today and sprays water but won't extract. Nothing in dirty water tank.
Inspect where the suction comes the machine into the water tank and through the tank to the nozzle assembly. If something isn't seated correctly or isn't working properly it could cause a suction loss.

I have the bissell pro heat turbo microban cleaner. It's about 2 1/2 years old and maybe used 8 times. The brushes do not work and it's not suctioning up the water. I've checked the belt on...
You already said it, so check the carbon brushes. Once it is no longer able to push the rotor or stator it need to be replace. Carbon brushes are customized at the machine shop, so you should bring it so that you have a sample of the brushes itself. Just be observant when disassembling the motor so that you put it back to exact place.
Thanks for asking.

My bissell pro heat 2x does not **** up the water from either the upholstery cleaner or carpet cleaner. Any thoughts as to why? The water and heat functions work it just does not pick up
First check the motor duct gasket. The motor duct gasket is visible once the tank is removed. It is located underneath the handle on the top of the base of the machine. It has a black rubber coating around it. If there is no suction there please let us know. If your machine does have suction at the duct, continue to check the following:

- Ensure the Ready Tools Dial is set to the appropriate setting (Floor Cleaning or Hose Attachments).
- Remove the tank from the machine and ensure the tank lid is attached properly. The front window must first hook onto the lip of the bottom of the tank and then drape over the tank. Latch the bottom tank to the top tank lid. THIS LID CANNOT BE ATTACHED PROPERLY IF THE TANK IS NOT REMOVED FROM THE MACHINE.
- Make sure the Water Tank is not full on the outside of the bladder. If it is, empty the tank.
- Ensure the hose is firmly attached to the back of the machine. If not, re-insert as necessary by twisting into place.
- The machine must be in an upright, locked position and set to the Hose Attachment setting. If the handle is slightly tilted back while using, it will create a small gap at the suction inlet (where handle meets gasket, above the Bottom Tank) which will cause little or no suction.
- Check the red Tank Lint Screen for debris. If the Lint Screen is dirty, the unit will have poor suction. Clean the Lint Screen if necessary.
- If the float flap door in the tank lid is activating prematurely when you turn the machine on, this flap door should be replaced. This tank may need to be emptied.
- Check the Tank Lid and Tank for damage.

Bissell pro heat steam carpet cleaner, not releasing water.
That means that you need to replace the pump belt. Here is the belt you need and a manual you can view:

I have a billell Pro Heat 2X without a manual. How do I fill it and what ratio water to cleaner?
The cleaner goes into the small bottom at the very rear of the machine. It is uses full strenght (don't add any water to it). You add clean water into the bottom clear plastic section on the front of the machine. The clean water bladder is soft plastic and it is filled from the top. When you start using the machine, the dirty water will get suctioned into the section surrounding this bladder. The machine will stop working when either the bladder is empty or the dirty water section is full. Remove the entire plastic section to dump out the dirty water.

How much soap and how much water do I put in the Bissell pro heat?
You are supposed to buy the Bissell soap. On the bottle depending which cleaner you need. The directions are on the bottle. Please do not use house hold cleaners because you can cause serious damage to the vacuum.

Bissell water not working
Does water squirt out of the hose nozzle, if it does, then check the heater inside the handle asm. Make sure that where the tubes hook up to it are not clogged. If water doesn't squirt, check for the seal at the bottom of the tank, it needs to be on the tank, not in the hole. The flow indictor cap is leaking air or maybe is too tight. If you had the top cover off, make sure that the tubes are routed right so as not to get pinched when the cover is put back on, the smart mix knob should be in the water setting and that the piston is on the bottom of the smart mix know. Pump is bad.

How to fix Bissell Proheat losing prime after using spray for a short amount of time? When I try to use the spray on my Bissell Proheat 7901, it quickly loses its prime and it will not spray afterwards. I just replaced the belt going to the pump and I tried priming it again, just for it to quickly lose prime again. Is air getting in somewhere? The gasket does not look bad on the bottom of the tank. possible leak in hose EDIT: I tried a "bucket" test to where the hose going to the SmartMix piston was put inside a bucket of water and it seemed like the pump was ok as it provided a constant stream of water. Would that leave it to the tank being warped and allowing air in?
