I have pasted a link to the Bissell ProHeat series carpet extractor repair guide below. This guide is like my Bible when I'm working on these machines, and is EXTREMELY helpful on explaining how, and where hoses and parts go, and possible explanations of problems, and how to fix them.
I hope that this information is helpful to you, it sure is to me. If you did find this helpful, please be so kind and vote my repair helpful by clicking the 4 thumbs up icons in the top right hand corner of the repair. This is what really keeps repair professionals like myself keep coming back and giving free repair advice, we greatly appreciate when people acknowledge our work here. Thank you ahead of time.
I had the same problem, ended up I had to clean out the hose for the accessories...I found out how to do it by looking at the troubleshooting section of my owner's manual online at bissell.com. (Just type easy vac under troubleshooting and choose the instruction manual based on your model number). If none of these things work, you can always contact bissell at 1-800-237-7691. hope this helps!!
Usually this can go one of two ways, very easily, or absolutely a pain. You will need needle nose pliers, and patience. When I am in the shop working on these machines, it's always a matter of not getting frustrated, and using eccessive force.
If there is a coil spring you will want to pull that back gently, and place the arm back into place, always be gentle and patient. Then you may have to use a flat head screw driver to push the arm into final position.. again.. be patient, and gentle... this is all plastic except for the spring of course.
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, this is for the soap bottle, there is a seal on the bottom of it as well. 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 knob. Pump is bad. Try running a mix of vinegar and water to see if that unclogs the lines. Is the top cover and the base tight together in the back, sometimes the top breaks loose and it will raise up and it can't spray, just refasten it down.
I couldn't find the exact guide for your model but the two links below are the ones bissell told me to use.
