Went to a local repair shop & was told that I may as well trash this model because no parts were available. Of course, I have to research things for myself & to try to keep from buying a new power steamer. Called Bissell Customer Service. CSR told me that the model was discontinued, none of the parts that I need are available & referred me to five authorized KY dealers (all of which are an hour or more driving time away). I am going to call all of them tomorrow & hope I can find a solution to one broken pivot arm that holds rotating brush roll.
I found a helpful website that has a schematic and lists all parts that are available to order (& unavailable). There is also one service note regarding the parts that I need that says the entire base assembly with brush motor must be replaced because of a design change. Of course, it's not available either. Hope this helps some.

Brushes are switched on by lowering the handle which activates a micro-switch located inside the lower part of the machine. Vacuum must be running as well. The DC power for the brush motor comes from a Bridge rectifier located on the PC board located in the handle. I have drawings that might help you.

Hello, I went to a local repair shop & was told that I may as well trash this Bissell 1695 model because very few parts were available & none were what I needed. Of course, I have to research things for myself & to try to keep from buying a new power steamer. Called Bissell Customer Service. CSR told me that the model was discontinued, none of the parts that I need are available & referred me to five authorized KY dealers (all of which are an hour or more driving time away).

You need a little more leverage--either a strap type tool or a pair of adjustable width pliers that span the width of the cap. Try running hot water over the cap first which may loosen it enough to remove by hand.

tip unit back to lift brushes off floor and roll forward until over carpet edge. tip back unit to sit flush on carpet and unlock handle so it swings freely. now pull backwards ith finger on spray trigger. that's how it works, not by pushing forwad.
