I have 2018 coachman vip the problem is the poor water flow. We were advised to in crease the pressure but can't find switch ??

increasing the pressure switch will not fix poor flow
that is from inadequate water supply to or from the pump
check for blocked / kinked lines to the pump from the tank, tank not venting, tap washer problems preventing flow

My ifb dishwasher show F5 and could not complete it's cycle

If your IFB dishwasher is a Neptune DX model, Error code F5 according to the owners manual is "Inadequate water supply"

F5

Inadequate water supply • Make sure the water input tap is totally open and that there is no water cut.
• Close the water input tap, separate the water input hose from the tap and clean the filter at
the connection end of the hose.
• Restart your machine, contact the service if the error resumes.

Kenmore Washer HE 2plus my machine has an error F 20 won't do anything

The technical details of this fault code are shown in the first image below. This information is valid for most Kenmore HE2+ washers. It is likely that it will apply to your model. If the washer is not filling with any water, check the water supply faucets behind the washer to make sure that they are properly open. If you are using a floodsafe device as shown in the second image on your water supply lines, I recommend replacing this device with normal water supply hoses. The floodsafe device will not work properly on most washers. Turn off the water supply faucets and remove the supply hoses from the connection on the back of the washer. Check the inlet screens on the back of the washer for debris or deposits that could prevent the washer from filling properly. Clean the screens if necessary and carefully replace them after flushing the inlet to the water valves thoroughly with water. (Failure to properly flush the inlet area could result in debris getting past the screens and fouling the inlet water valves.) While the water supply hoses are still disconnected from the back of the washer, place the ends of the hoses in a bucket and briefly turn on the water supply faucets to check the water pressure and flow from them. If the water supply is inadequate, you may need a plumber to resolve this problem. If the washer still won't fill after checking these issues, then you could have a failure in the solenoid water fill valves for the washer. You could also have a wiring failure or a problem with the electronic control board.

If the washer is filling, your problem would likely be in the water level pressure switch or the air pressure tube between the bottom of the tub and the pressure switch. A wiring failure or control board problem could also prevent the water level from being properly detected. To access the water level pressure switch, you can unplug the washer and remove the top panel. Screws at the very back of the top panel secure it to the washer. Remove these screws and then pull the top panel slightly back and then up and off the top of the washer. The water level pressure switch is normally on the rear of the right side panel of the washer. Check the air pressure hose and wiring connections. If no problems are found, you may need to replace this part.

Hi I have an Alto Force and it it has simply stopped operating. Fused changed etc but still no luck.

Try the machine without the high pressure hose on. if that fails you will need to check that you have power to the switch on the machine.

Kew Alto Force X-TRA cold water supply pressure sensor problem

Have the same p-washer (5-6 years old) and the same problem. Opened it and the pressure switch is the crook. A plastic pin has an inner and an outer spring on it (two consentric springs). The smaller inner spring is completely rusted away so the switch no longer operates correctly. Obviously the spring was of a too low quality. The service office say a new switch cost around 400NOK (50 euros) - so the washer is too expensive to mend. But I will try to get it working without the inner spring. Doubt if I succed. So will have to dump the washer.

I have a durabuilt DB1404 and when i'm spraying, the power washer doesn't want to keep going. It goes and stops. I tried getting the air out and that didn't work. What else could i try?

This sounds like you have an inadequate supply of water to the unit. Make sure your supply faucet is turned all the way on, use a 5/8 or 3/4" hose from the faucet to the unit, and use a smaller tip on your spray nozzle to minimize the amount of water you are using when working.

Excell vr2500 pressure washer ,no pressure, took off high pressure hose at bottom of washer , get water flow, but flow does not change when engine is running full throttle

check the water filter ---high pressurehose must have bbackpressure to develop pressure so disconecting it wont acheive ,much ,if you have agood water supply ,oil in the pump--- adjust pressure by srewing the brass fitting that the pressure hose attachesto, down that is clock wise a couple of turns or so and see if that makes a difference if not seals in the pumpmay be gone tha t should show by water in the oil

Karcher Power Washer that surges up and down with water pressure.

Before you start it up:
1. Disconnect the high pressure hose 2. Connect the water supply and turn on 3. Make sure water is flowing through the pump
Start the motor, run for about 10 seconds and then turn off.
Turn off the water supply, connect the high pressure hose, turn water back on, start the motor and away you go.

My Karcher high pressure sprayer is delivering intermitant pressure.Every 15 seconds or so it developes high pressure for only about two seconds. Why is it not delivering a constant high pressure stream?

Check that the water supply is constant , it sounds like the pump might be pushing out more water than can be delivered , or it could be a dirty inlet filter
