I have a Craftsmen 1800 PSI Electric Pressure Washer, Model 580.752020 and it keeps tripping.

  • 33fergy Sep 16, 2009

    Thanks, it was working fine when I pressure washed the inside of my fence, which was about 1 week ago. I just started on the outside and it just keeps tripping, the breaker appears to be fine.

Without more information than you have provided, I would think that yoour motor has been damaged by over use or by using too small an electric cord or too long a cord. The overload which is most likely a thermal overload is getting too hot.

Where would I go to get our pressure washer serviced? I live in the Saskatoon, Sask. surrounding area.

Does the electric motor keep running? If it does continue to run with the trigger in the spraying position, then your pressure switch and motor are OK. If the motor is running and the water is not coming out with pressure, then either your check valves are not closing properly or the pumping mechanism is in need of repair. I think those little electrics have a simple wobble plate design. Basically not worth the effort to fix them

Hookup

For the Campbell Hausfeld 1800 PSI model (PW182500AV), the garden hose connects to the pump inlet on the lower back of the pressure washer. The high pressure hose connects to the high pressure outlet on the lower front of the pressure washer. Here is the operator's manual that will show both connections. http://www.mowersatjacks.com/images/campbell-hausfeld/manuals/pw1825.pdf

I have a karcher pressure washer 1800 psi i bought from walmart it was running good until i had a power surge with the plug in. what can i do can i change the fuse in the plug or do i have to open the...

you will have to take the cover off & look for melted wires or a fuse.
if there is no fuse the capacitor may have been cooked.
it should be a white cylinder.if it has been damaged it will have burn marks and may be swollen.
replace the capacitor and it should start.

1800 power washer will not run - power is getting to on/off switch

Maybe just the pressure switch is stuck or you have trapped pressure in the lance. Try without the high pressure hose and then activate the pressure switch on the side of the pump as this may not be letting the machine to statr if its stuck.

My karcher electric power washer will not start-1800 psi

If you have used an extension cord with it you have destroyed the motor. If not, the bypass valve is stuck. On THIS diagram, section 2.1, part number 1 needs lubrication with a good waterproof grease.

Pressure Washer quit running

I have owned four of those units. Every one of them did what you are experiencing or just wouldn't give me any pressure after only a few uses. The company was certainly no help. I gave up after four and bought a heavier gas model from Lowes. Hope this info helps.
