One thing that is not mentioned anywhere, and it really makes me angry, is that our Brondell Swash, BRAND NEW...JUST INSTALLED, the wands wouldn't deploy AT ALL. So I am posting the solution here...in the hope that it helps someone else. I read all the "answers" and NONE of them fit my problem. Your Bidet is old...needs cleaning, nozzles are clogged, mesh filter needs cleaning...nope....it's brand new. The batteries are dead in the remote...nope. The air dryer works, the lights on the remote are ON, the auxiliary buttons deploy the wands for cleaning, so the wands CAN be deployed, they simply will not come out. I could see water dripping over the wands, so I knew the plumbing was okay, and I DO know how to install taps, faucets, shower heads, so I know I did that correctly, and in the right order, but when I pressed "rear" or "front" clean...the remote just "beeped" twice, but you could hear the wands "hum" as if they were trying to deploy. **Guess what it was...AN AIR POCKET IN THE BIDET SUPPLY LINE! We could see that water pressure seemed to be a problem, but we live in the city, so water pressure is never a problem. THIS IS HOW YOU FIX IT, IF THIS HAPPENS TO YOU. Put a bucket, (we used the bathroom garbage can), under the Bidet Supply Line. Gently unscrew the connection where the Bidet Supply Line attaches to the Bidet, until some water leaks out. Allow the water to flow into the bucket, until you can tell any air pockets are purged. We allowed a couple of inches of water to accumulate in the garbage can. Then tighten the connection until the water stops leaking. It seems to be the only way to purge air out of the line. After that, everything worked fine! But THIS should be a part of the trouble shooting guide, and I know, when you shut your water supply OFF, as when replacing faucet cartridges, when you turn the water back ON, you can hear air rumbling around in the pipes, and you can see water "spitting out" while the air is being purged. But the taps need to be open for the air to be purged. There doesn't seem to be a way of doing this, with the Bidet, unless you do what we did, unscrew the connection a little bit, to allow the water to push the air pocket OUT. If you go too far, and water pours out of the Supply Line, be prepared to quickly shut off the Water Supply Valve. I hope this helps someone else, we were at a loss as to how to make this thing work...FOR HOURS!!!
So happy I stumbled on this video! My Brondell Swash's nozzle would not dispense after the initial sterilizing process. I've had my bidet for about 4 years, well past the warranty period, and thought, well I guess it is done. The simple reset was all that was needed! Just saved over $500. I don't have to replace this one!
LOOL you actually calmly accepted the fact that a 500$ bidet stopped working after 4 years?? I had a regular 150€ bidet seat (no jet stream) for 22 years and it still works, I'm only replacing it because it looks yellow and rusty
great video. Helped solve our problem. It was the location of the remote. Even toto couldn’t help us figure it out and this is the second toilet seat we have with them and location of remote in same spot. though we were going crazy~Appreciate it~
Very clear.Thank you. My 8y.o. Samsung stopped functioning after cleaning with a handy steam device. New batteries in wall fixed remote. Remote buttons light up but no action on the seat, and the seat is cold. Side buttons work so at least i can get a cold clean; and I infer from what is said here that there isn't a problem with the seat but rather the remote : SBD-970C. Being so old would it still be available, and at what cost? And it's still a bit of a gamble. Would another remote work? (Maybe time to get a new one?😕)
It may be a more involved repair than you wish to tackle; I disassembled my 15 year-old Daelim Dobidos Bidet model DB752NA, when It would no longer spray, There were indeed some mineral deposits in the fine mesh screen that was integral to the cold water inlet hose, but the problem was a bad solenoid. I put in a generic part that had the same inlet size and voltage rating, and had the unit working again for only a few dollars. It is too nice an item to discard over a $3 part! Of course your unit may have a different problem altogether.
A Bio Bidet USPA 6800 just stopped spraying water out of a sudden. Tried all steps still no luck. My water is not hard, I don't think clog is the reason. Any suggestions?
I have a Kholer novita bidet, I just installed it and the toilet will not spray. It will leak water into the toilet when I press the button. Also on my controller anytime I press anything it won’t work and the water light will flash. Please help if you can.
I have a Toto 5300e and the rear wash "hard" spray wont work. Everything else is fine but nothing comes out when I "double click" the rear wash for a harder clean spray. Rear wash "easy" single click works fine. Front wash works fine for both hard and soft. NET NET when I want to spray my butt "hard" in rear mode nothing comes out. I can hear it trying. Any advice?
Can somebody help me? My bidet is not working after pressing the bidet. The pressure LED just keeps blinking 3-5 times and then it stops. After 5 tries it works but i don’t know what that blinking means
This is so annoying, having a toilet working should not be this complicated. I select a function, you can hear water starts running, you can see the wand deployed but nothing happens, it goes immediately back in. No the nozzle head doesn't need to be cleaned. I took it out, put it under water from the sink and water came fine. No there are no water pressure issues.
Need additional plumbing... since we have a slab foundation, that involved extensive floor remodeling and lots of jack-hammering of concrete, with all the additional cost of doing all that. A bidet seat is vastly cheaper option that doesn't involve a week of labor costs and thousands of dollars in new flooring/plumbing.
Idk why the fuck i cant get mine to work. At first, it caused the toilet to leak/ make noise 24/7 which got me a $500 water bill. Then i tried to repair it and no the toilet bowl wont fill unless i press the switch down and the bidet wont work at all. Im so fucking pissed man

Air bubble was my problem. Thanks for posting this. TTP
I’m going to try this with my (less than a year old) omigo luxury bidet. Currently the best I can get out of it is a 2 second spray before it stops.

After 2 full years of an expensive bidet seat by TOTO not working, I followed this video and it is working :) Than
k you.
great video. Helped solve our problem. It was the location of the remote. Even toto couldn’t help us figure it out and this is the second toilet seat we have with them and location of remote in same spot. though we were going crazy~Appreciate it~
Great to hear!
Awkward enough trouble shooting while really really needing it to do it's job. Please, somebody!
Though not comprehensive, this was still helpful (for our situation) thanks to the sensor information. Thanks.
You're welcome!

Worked 2 years ago and today!
A clogged cold water inlet screen or faulty water flow solenoid is a more likely culprit.
Is it possible to change the water flow solenoid because I have tried all their tips and still no water comes out.

Hello Do you have a video on a 5 year old Toto Washlet - auto seat open and close motion sensor function stopped working
Covers the basics, which most people can figure out, seat sensor trick is new.
And if the seat sensor doesn’t trigger? Kind of incomplete troubleshooting.
Thanks I got it working!
top quality

You ever figure this out? Mines doing the same thing

Can somebody help me? My bidet is not working after pressing the bidet. The pressure LED just keeps blinking 3-5 times and then it stops. After 5 tries it works but i don’t know what that blinking means
Does any one knows why the hot water won't come out?
so you can tell i’m stuck in a toilet, and i just pooped
Ya Me Too. Water Sucks In Here 🇵🇭
My brondell bidet does not spray and I have tried the basic trouble shooting. Is there a common problem with an internal part going bad?

My bidet just does not seem to work. Do not purchase Alpha ix Hybrid.
suggest treditional toilet bidet

Sounds like you attached the hoses backwards or in the wrong location.
Why does piss leak out the front of the seat?
