Could be oxidation on the contacts with the battery
How old is the battery ? NiCad or Li? If NiCad and over a year old change it.

See if something is caught between the roller assembly

So it sounds like you have either a split in the water reservoir or the tube connecting the reservoir to the heating elements has come off. Looking up parts I couldn't find a new reservoir available. I also don't know how hard it would be to get at the connecting tube and see if it came loose. There should be an access panel, either on the back of the unit or accessible by removing the dirt bin. Then I would pour some more water into it and see where the water is leaking out. If it is coming out the bottom where the steam is supposed to come out then I think the steam chamber has cracked from the heat of the elements. If this is the case, from the reviews I have read (you are not the first to have this issue) then the cost to fix it is going to be higher than getting a new one. I have noticed many many complaints that this item only seems to last for a 2 year period. I don't know how long you have owned the unit. If it is new you may be able to return it for a new unit.

Your heater may be clogged up with soap gunk. The water for the hand tool does not go through the heater.

There is probably more gunk in there, the gunk can dry and break off in little shards which can get clogged up. You can try putting straight vinegar in it, try running it through and let it sit in there for a while to see if it can help loosen up and flush out the gunk.

Remove the pieces of the old spring and take it to any OSH store, they have an assortment that will likely have one that will work.

Rinse it out with hot water .

Replace the whole thing.

I don't know your model number to be sure but you may need a new belt if it has one.

You would see if you warped the tank, the issue is most likely related to melting some of the thin pump parts or tubing in the unit. Bissell does not sell those parts to the public. Find a repair center or send it in unless you want to buy a new one. PS in the future don't put high temp water in the tank, put it on the spot you are trying to clean and then vacuum it up.

Hi Eleanore. not sure if this is what you are looking for but have a look. manual for bissell revolution pet Google Search

There are many hoses, fittings, valves, jets, etc. in addition to the pump and heater that all a possible source of your water leak. You must inspect and test all these areas thoroughly to diagnose the source of your leak.

First you must determine where it is leaking then find out why....it could be a bad hose, fitting, tool, wand p, heater, pump, etc. inspect closely or take it to your local vacuum repair shop.

Some thing like rug or too much hair vine the brush to prevent the brush to spin when the motor is on. So it just keep pulling the belt that's why there is smoke. -Check it , clean it and possibly need to replace new belt. Good luck/Keep clean Mai Lor

If it starts again after while it may have overheated. If so the filters may need replaced.

I owned one of these. Had several issues with it, repaired one then another would develop. you may have a clogged filter. My advice, sell the damn thing and get a Hoover. They have a much better design.

The Bissell Gemini carpet sweeper? Those are practically antiques now but they are the best manual sweeper Bissell ever made. Im afraid a manual for it may be nearly impossible to get these days. They are fairly simple little devices. What exactly is the problem? If you are cleaning out the brushrolls the come out if you pull slightly in the sides of the unit itself. Can you post some pictures?
