blockage in the suction line
if it is the wet mode there should be a valve (ball) that sucks up to stop water from getting to the motor when the receiver is too full. If you are in wet mode and still have the dust bag in place then the bag will be a solid block of mud and that will be the blockage.
Craftsman 17765 canister vacuum cleaner is known for its assortment of power tools especially when it comes to cleaning jobs. It is designed to give you an easier, more effective cleaning. This vacuum cleaner delivers a high capacity reservoir, power and the versatility to swap easily between tasks. Craftsman wet/dry vaccums soaks even drosp of water on the floor with one of their 16 gallon wet/dry vacuum. It is also equipped with utility nozzle, extension wands, and dust bag that makes the cleaning process easier. The extension wands can clean the hard to reach areas like cupboards, corners, and bends. It has a large gallon tank that includes convenient drain port for easy emptying when the job is done.
Most wet dry vacs have a ball float that blocks the vacuum when it is full of liquid. Yours sounds as if it is full or the ball has gotten stuck in the up, or blocking position.
It sounds like the vacuum is clogged, probably the hose. You'll need to remove the hose from the vacuum and use a vacuum with a blower, or an air pressure gun, to clear it. Do so from the tank side of the hose. You can also try placing the nozzle end of the hose to the tank and turning it on. This reverses the flow through the hose and may be enough to clear it.
Also, check the power nozzle where the hose attaches to it. There may be a clog there.
Plug the hose into the other side of the unit. One end pushes air and the other side draws in the air. Now drywall dust will clog your filter quickly. Clean the filter often. Do not clean dust without the filter. It will get all over everything!
if the blower is much stronger than the suction, you may have an air leakwhere the cover fits on tank or possibly a warped tank or cover. feel all around the unit for air being drawn in somewhere besides the hose. try it without the hose on and block the inlet for a couple seconds to see if the unit leaks air in. also replace the filter , dont try to clean it, the pores clog and reduce suction and damage motor.
Are there two ports for the hose? If so just switch ports. If not then there may be a switch either on the top or inside the blower top itself.
