There are a few things you can try to fix your Vax rapid power plus upholstery hose:

  1. Check the water tank: Make sure the water tank is full and securely in place. If it is not securely in place, it can cause a reduction in water flow.
  2. Check the nozzle: Remove the nozzle and clean it thoroughly. If there is any debris or buildup, it can cause a blockage in the nozzle and reduce the water flow.
  3. Check the hose: Check the hose for any kinks, twists or damage. If there are any kinks or twists, it can reduce the water flow. If the hose is damaged, it may need to be replaced.
  4. Check the pump: Check the pump for any blockages or damage. If the pump is not working properly, it can reduce the water flow.
If none of these steps work, it may be best to contact Vax customer support for further assistance or to have the machine repaired.

Hi , I have a vax rapid power revive carpet cleaner and the brushes aren't spinning, can you help?
To troubleshoot this issue, start by checking the belt on the cleaner. Make sure it has not become cracked or frayed. Also ensure the brushes are properly installed and not hampered by dirt or debris. If the belt looks intact and the brushes are secure, next check the belt tensioning wheel. It should be properly tightened, so if necessary, adjust accordingly. Lastly, some models use separate power sources to drive the brush roll and the suction motor, so make sure that both are working correctly.

My vax rapid carpet cleaner no suction filter is fine
If the vacuum is still functioning, the hose is most likely clogged. Disassemble the vax and unclog. Make sure you drain before disassembling. If possible do this outside.

Hi my vax rapide ultra carpet cleaner seems to continually spray without operating the trigger and this makes extraction of the water/ solution difficult.Is this continoues spray normal?
No it should only spray when the trigger is pressed. After spraying you go over the area to suck the water out. The valve on the trigger is faulty. I found this

I had the same problem, after buying a new clean water tank the problem was still there. I decided to see how it works and discovered the little shut off valve that the trigger operates is sticking in the open position. I am now trying to find a new valve.
