My sincerest Thank you, Sir
My machine has been sitting for months bc I knew I had to call Bissell to be walked through what to do like a 5 yr old, and I was dreading it
You showed me where the belt is, and I found mine to be off…not even broken, just off.
The quickest fix ever! Can’t believe it!
Thank you again!!
No problem I am so glad you liked this video. I may pin your comment
Same here. I'm about to check my cleaner out
This is hands down the best and most low drama trouble shooting tutorial ever! In two minutes you helped me locate three problems!
Thanks so much
Dude my machine hasn’t worked for a year and you just helped me fix it! Thank you!
Your so very welcome
Seriously… thank you. Just about to throw mine in the garbage, and came across your video. Who would have known belt access was to the water pump?🤯 Learned a few extra things and saved myself a few dollars as well as better knowing my machine. Thank you. 👍
Your so welcome
Mine made it to the porch but I am so glad I ran across this video before I hauled it to the dump
I’ve had this vacuum for a few years now and it’s still going strong. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx8ISPQRRAfpAaX4msGjyodObTBnlj4T5g I was cleaning it today and thinking about how much I love no bags to buy and that it comes apart for easy clean up. When I first purchased it we had two dogs and a cat and it kept up well. The suction was great then and still is now. I’m always amazed at the amount of hair it picks up, it works better than any other vacuum I’ve had for pet hair. The attachments are handy and work well. It’s easy to use with arthritic hands. I just had to come write a review because I’m still so pleased with this purchase.
Is there a squeegee available for hard floors
One thing not mentioned: When checking the belt, also check that the red ball the belt is wrapped around easily turns. If it doesn't, that is your problem.
Lint, cat and dog hair, and carpet fibers can get clogged in the small recess between the red ball and the water pump, causing the red ball to stop spinning.
Usually when that happens, you'll smell rubber "burning." The rubber belt will eventually break, but replacing the belt won't fix your problem if you don't clean out the debris that clogs the ball.
Also, use a flat head screw driver to remover the belt cover, not a plastic stick.
Good video. Good presentation. Time to wax your unit to make it shine! :)
I didn't want to use a screwdriver and break the plastic clip.
@@VacMaster1991 It won't break. Done it many times to check for and clean out fibers and stuff from that area.
BTW, if ever think about buying a new Bissell "rug-scrubber,": you might want to check out the Bissell Powerforce Powerbrush. It's lightweight, does a great job, cleans easy, and sells for under $100.
Because our kids are always asking to borrow ours, we ended up buying two. They're really worth every penny.
@@GetRealBaby I prefer Hoover Because they are easier to clean
Thank you so much for this video, your steps to check fixed the issue and saved me from a sopping wet carpet! You rock!
You're welcome!
All of the obvious I still have no suction. I wish you would have covered that lime green tab that was his top of the nozzle. What if there's a clog in the hose where does the suction come from...?
Thank you for making this video very informative. My bissell’s belt come off the motor so it was prevent the water from spraying. If it wasn’t for this video, I would have never thought to check the belt access. I was so focused on the red gasket since other videos were saying that was the issue.
So thank you!
No problem. I'm glad the video was helpful
@@VacMaster1991I came here to make the exact same comment as the person above. I've repaired vacuums before, but never a carpet cleaner. Your video helped me figure out what was wrong. Thank you so much!
I have done all of those things. We live in the Southwest where we have hard water, which clogs every thing small. Lastly I am 70 years old, nowhere near as flexible as I use to be, and my back reminds me of it. Bissell is a maintenance intensive cleaner, if I can't get it to work, I am going to have to look into a better product, where I don't have to do a complete rebuild everytime. If you are lucky enough to live 7 decades, you'll know what I mean someday 😊
The best thing I could recommend would be the hoover smartwash. It's incredibly easy to clean and maintain
@@VacMaster1991 We were in the same wavelength, I just purchased one. Thank you.
Thanks for the video, very informative! My steam cleaner was not sucking up water, so immediately i knew it was a suction issue, but was overlooking the issue. It turns out, the red filter cap attached to the sllution tank lid was covered with lint. As soon as i had removed the lint, it was sucking water just fine again.
Glad my video helped.
My spinner was clogged. Thanks for showing me there was a filter under it! Good spray flow now and I didn't even have to take it apart!
Glad I could help
Thank you for the tutorial. I was able to clean mine up well and also determined that the belt had slipped off. It's fixed and working like new again!
Glad I could help
No spinning on the flow indicator was the problem for me. Belt came off and the video showed me exactly how to check it and fix it. Thanks!
Your welcome. I'm glad you found it helpful
Thank you, VacMaster. Our machine wasn’t spraying water, and now it is. The wife is much relieved.
Good to hear
Thank you so much!! I was having trouble with my vacuum, turned out the belt broke so I’m replacing it this week! 🙏🏽
Your welcome
Great video. I have a similar model that stopped sucking up water. You gave me many good ideas of places to inspect. Hope I can fix it.
Great video. Found filters' clogged and the bain belt was off.
Wish there was something to stop the belt from coming off the main motor. That was the biggest problem.
Thank you so much for this. I inherited this one from a friend who didn't really take care of it. Now I can actually clean my floor lmao.
No prob. I'm so glad the video helped you
Cleaning the filter made a big difference! Thank you!
Your very welcome glad it helped
Thanks 🙏 a million you’re dope! Loose belt was completely off!! Slid back on worked like magic
Your so welcome
Thank you I just got a used one. Was really dirty but cleaned it I thought pretty good. Was not getting any spray or little suction and following you step by step, skipping the belt. It is working great now. Thank you
Glad I could help
Got it working again! Couldn’t find the manual anywhere,,,and I’d always rather watch a good tutorial anyway!!nthanks!
Glad it helped
Thank God for this video! My belt came loose after looking and i was panicking cause still had to to the water rinse on my carpet and it wasnt working! Thank you so much! You're a life saver!
I'm so glad the video helped.
We looked at two other videos before yours with no results. It was YOUR video that finally diagnosed the problem. Thank you! 🎉
Great. Glad I could help
Thank you so much! I found one of these that someone was throwing away it was spraying so I checked the belt like you said and it just popped off put it back on and boom works like a charm! 🙏
Glad I could help!
Great video. You not only answered the question I had but a few others that I was curious about 👍
Glad the video helped
Thanks for the in-depth on how to fix all these issues. I got one from goodwill and save a ton on it but have had some minor sucking/spraying issues
Did you get it working
@@VacMaster1991 I haven’t cleaned with it yet. I took apart almost everything and started a deep clean on it. I still have the brush roller out because it definitely needs a lot more tlc than you’re great roller. Thinking of replacing it with a new one since it’s so worn and frayed together
@@matthewmckeever3741 , yea if the brush roll is frayed it probably needs replacing
Boom! It took me 5 videos but I finally found this video and it answered all of my questions. Thank ya much.
No problem. Glad I could help
You're the best! Thank you so much for showing me how to fix all the frustration that I've been having with my machine lately
Glad I could help
Thanks very much! The belt is always a good place to start. Mine had slipped off.
Glad I could help
Thank you so much for this video I just bought one and it was not spraying at all I kept trying to figure out why and I opened the belt compartment and the belt somehow came off !!! You saved me from going all the way back to return it
Glad the video was helpful
This comment saved me not only from returning it, but also saved me the time of not having to watch the whole video ! No one else on the internet talks about a brand new one !
How do replace the belt I have a new belt and I know how to get the plate off but I don't know how to put the belt on
@@markmellowgames I’m not really sure I haven’t had to replace my belt yet .. it just came off of the silver exposed rod I just put the belt back onto it
@@kadayshalee ah thats okay i figured it out its actually quite simple once you've figured it out thanks tho :)
Thank you! The belt popped off mine and wouldnt spray. Greatly appreciated.
Thanks. Glad the video helped
thanks so much! I really appreciate your time explained this 😊
Glad it was helpful!

Thank You I just bought this vacuum last week threw away the box when I put it together.. it stopped spinning I watched your video checked everything you said it was the last thing the belt on the side of if came off somehow if wasn’t for Your help I would’ve had to thrown it away
Great video and information. Easy to understand.
Thanks so much
So glad I found your video, I was able to remove the nozzle cover for cleaning!
Thanks. Glad it helped you
@@VacMaster1991 Trick question: after removing the nozzle cover and thoroughly cleaning under there the diverter valve will not go back to the down position and the smart dial assembly is not properly linked up. Any tips? Thanks.
@@DavidLuger I'm not sure actually.
@@VacMaster1991 It's fixed and linked up now. The whole cover had to come off. Thanks for getting me started.
@@DavidLuger no problem
Thank you! Very helpful!
Thanks
Thanks! This video was very informative on how to take care of and clean my machine. But then my wife boiled water to put in the bag, and it got distorted, and I had to order a new one. But thanks again for the video.
Thanks so much. I'm so glad you liked the video
If it is the belt, how do I replace it because it doesn't look that easy.
Thanks :) I don’t own one myself but Im helping a friend fix theirs with the help of your video :)
Glad the video was helpful👍
Thank You so much, I’ve watched several videos and this one did the trick for not picking up the water. I had it on floor setting, took off cover and moved the floor/tool tab a couple times. It was stuck closed. Whew. Only took me an hour to figure it out. Lol
Glad I could help
Thank u for this video I got the same model I purchased it in dec n I notice I have problem sometimes with the water to spray out today i use it .it spray and it stop I’m gonna do those step and see if I could fix the problem.. again thank u for doing this video

loved this video, did all that but weak suction.......thanks!
Glad I could help
Thank you, you are a lifesaver. It now works.
Glad the video helped
Thank you so much for the thorough video. I was just now tasked with troubleshooting ours and this was the first resource I checked out.
However...
I'm loathe to leave without commenting on the "Removing Belt" chapter. I was actually _yelling_ at my monitor while you were fumbling with getting the cover off, hahaha. A quietly confused "you're using a soft nylon spudger to open the lock tabs?" quickly went to _"JUST LEAVE THE CHIP THERE! JUST LEAVE IT THERE! NO, DON'T TRY TO PRY IT, JUST PUT THE CHIP IN AND-" At that moment the chip crumbled. I realized how foolish I was being and stopped vocalizing my frustration at that point, being glad you eventually got it open with that method.
Pro tip for using that tool set for this task in the future: just, uh...leave the chip in there in the gap you made, then move to the other tab 😅 Though as alluded to, the use of that spudger will do more damage to it than being an effective pry tool; especially when facing the slightly increased tension on the second tab. But leaving the chip there in the gap means that the cover pops up on its own when releasing the second tab. Easy-greezy!
Pro tip 2: Use a medium-ish flat-head screwdriver for greater effectiveness and tactile feedback when manipulating the tabs. Considerably less effort (and bending of a spudger) to unlock them. If you're worried about potential scratching, just lay your cleaning rag over the opening and gently push your screwdriver through to pull in the rag as a soft barrier. The fit may be a bit tight given the thickness of the rag, but as long as it's not too thick you won't have issue with getting enough of the screwdriver in for effective leverage.
I hate the thought of giving unsolicited advice, but it's at least *genuinely* helpful information for anyone open to it, haha; and I figured little tips to make the job easier would be appreciated on a video designed to help others ❤
Aaand then I noticed at the end that your iFixit set has the metal prytool and couldn't help but release an exasperated sigh and say, "you had that the _whole time?!_" hahaha
P.S. - The chip isn't designed to pry, it's meant for sliding between surfaces to cut adhesive. You experienced an unfortunate destruction of the chip, and I'm sorry for your loss.
RIP lil' plastic chip 😥
I tried the ifixit tool on another vacuum before and bent it. The fact that it's so difficult to remove the plastic cover shows how annoying the design of this thing is.
@@VacMaster1991 absolutely! Literally dealt with the same thing to discover the floppiest belt I've seen and a water pump that feels like it has rocks in it haha.
Since you responded so quickly (I hope I didn't offend you, sorry if I did 🙏), do you happen to know if the water pump is serviceable? I haven't started research on it yet.
Lol no. Your comment was funny. I have never fully taken this apart. I returned mine about a month after this video.
Thanks loads for your help!!
No problem
You sir, are absolutely AWESOME!!! TY !!

You're welcome!
It was the hose! Thanks so much
Glad I helped
Now I just need to know how to take apart and clean the tank
I was really, really hoping this would help. I especially believed it would after opening the belt housing & removed a bit of hair twisted along the edge of the belt. But no. Still no spray from the bottom or the hand tool. I know there’s a way to reset the hand tool, but can’t recall…I think you just hold the spray button down for 10 seconds. At any rate, mine still isn’t working. I have to say…as much as I love how well this particular machine cleans, this is my 3rd one that just stops working altogether. This time I’m pretty mad about it because I’ve only used it about 5x on 2 bedrooms. I won’t be purchasing another bissell after this. That said…thank you so much for the walk thru.
That's annoying. This machine has issues for me as well.
I think to restore prime it takes 30 seconds.
Thank you
Your welcome
Great video, thank you! My belt was off the metal rod. However, once I started vacuuming it kept slipping off again repeatedly. Argh!!
Darn it. Honestly this carpet cleaner isn't very good anyway. Mine kept leaking so I eventually returned it
@@VacMaster1991 Ah did you? Yea I’m not impressed so far. Thanks for the quick reply.
You saved us! We had tried everything and this fixed it! Thank you so much for sharing!!!!
Glad the video helped
Thank u for this video hun im so frustrated with this damn thing 😅 mine wont spray. 🤨😒🤔 i have city crap water ( live in country in east tn )and didnt kno if that was the issue or maybe my two fur ball doggies clogged it 😅 im gonna go try ur suggestions i appreciate u ❤
You should get a water softener if it's that bad.
Any ideas about clearing out the hose for the small attachments?
Fill a sink or bucket with 1 gallon of water and suck it through the hose. That will flush out any stuck debris
I come to learn from your videos and thought I'd have found the culprit but not quite. So thanks for showing me about the spinner filter, it was absolutely full of what looked like tiny crystal materials (tap/solution sediments most likely) After cleaning it, a little more accumulated. I can tell some water/solution is decreasing from the reservoir as well as some accumulation in the dirty tank but I am using it on linoleum to better see how the water is spraying & its intermittent & actually that spinner only moves every so often as well so to me there is some connection, meaning its only spraying when the spinner is moving but its not consistent to when I squeeze the trigger..... any ideas? Lastly, I find it strange that the dirty water tank is so large compared to the water tank, got to thinking Ive seen other models where clean water was added to the larger one but I dont see that on this model . Thanks for your time!
Mine wasn't spraying so i checked the belt and it had slipped off the pulley put it back on and it now works!
Great
Omg it worked !
Great
