YOU ARE THR BEST! My husband bought me a Bissell pet 2x Revolution about 8 years ago and the sprayer never worked right. I could only use the smallest spray tool and it would only work off and on. Well, recently the water pump went out and a local vacuum cleaner repair shop wanted to charge me $150 to fix it ($75 just to clean ot when I had just cleaned it). Anyway, I told them if it was more than $100 I couldn't afford it because we paid $200 for it new and my husband had just died and I had no money or credit. He had no life insurance either because his employer canceled ALL his insurances when they learned he had cancer. Anyway, this salesman still tried to sell me a $300 machine! I told him no and left there wondering what I was going to do. I have 3 parrots and my son's 2 old dogs. I NEED a carpet cleaner believe me! So, I started trying the process of elimination. I replaced all the belts and I knew I needed a water pump but Bissell doesn't sell them to the public. One day I was on Amazon and saw Bissell parts. I found my water pump, came home and after watching a video on replacing it, I did it. But it still wasn't spraying! Then I saw your video! You Da Man! Because I took the hose sprayer end apart and used the process of elimination again, as yoy did, and watched your video. You showed me everything I needed and after simply rinsing the nozzles out suddenly wdter was pouring out! I put it back together and tried all 3 cleaning tools and THEY ALL WORK NOW! AND the Bissell doesn't leak now either! From the time it was new, it leaked a little and it would hardly spray. Now it works better than new! And its because of me watching your videos and you being kind enough to share what you know, that I was able to fix my Carpet Cleaner myself. THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU!
Wow you’ve you went up the mountain and back with this Shampooer. Thank you for sharing your story, I’m glad I was able to help.
Thanks man. I have no idea how the belt came out but I will never figure it out without your video. Thanks
Glad to help-
Thank you! Was losing the will to live then found this video and discovered my attachment was the problem!
Been there...😄. Glad it helped you
Same!!
Wow! You did an excellent job trouble shooting this issue systematically so anyone could understand. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you... and you're welcome
I usually don't leave post but I had to ... I want to say big THANK YOU Brother!!! I have a Bissell pro X2 pro heat for pets and followed your instructions and sure enough the trigger wasn't engaged and the spring was off center. It was in storage for 4 years and now it's like it never left!!! Thank you so much! You've earned a new life long subscriber... Cheers
Thanks for the post. Sorry I got to this one late. I appreciate the kind words
Thank you so much 😊
Figured out my hose input was clogged (at the base), but your video was so helpful in taking apart hose, nozzle, and learning how it works.
My family lives in Monroe and I need to get up there to visit--I'll stop by when I do!!
Thanks again,

I’ve had my Bissell Lift-off for a few years now (8ish?). The hose broke at the attachment end and after some minor surgery, the suction was good again. Then the sprayer stopped working. Found this video and it saved my marriage!!! Thank you!!!
you are welcome my friend..glad to help
Thank you so much! It got me confidently looking for the problem, I had 2 issues with the hose, 1st the point of contact at the base of the machine needed to be pushed in a few times with a small screw driver as it was clogged or needed priming, then the very tip of the nozzle on the brush adaptor was clogged to. I just used a needle and it now works prefectly. All I need to do now is stop the drip from the water well. It's cracked slightly on the locking part,had been like it since getting out the box. Cheers again
Awesome! Glad to help
Thank you for all of the helpful videos to date on diagnosing and fixing the Bissell Pro Heat 2x Revolution Pet Pro, Wayne! My issue is I'm not getting any water out of the hose attachment, although the foot (base) of the carpet cleaner dispenses water just fine. Things I've checked/tried:
1) Re-primed the pump by using an unopened ballpoint pen to hold down the spring-loaded seal in the hose attachment water supply port until water flows - no change
2) Removed the nozzle attachment from the hose - no change
3) Disassembled the hose trigger assembly and removed the trigger mechanism to bypass it - no change
4) Blew compressed air and water through the water supply line in the hose - water passes fine, no signs of blockage
5) Checked pump belt condition - It was intact and in place, but seemed possibly loose; replaced with a new OEM belt just in case, with no change
6) Tested flow through pump output line after disconnecting line to the hose attachment water supply port - water flows, indicating pump is working
7) Back-blew through the hose attachment water supply port with compressed air - air flows, no signs of blockage
8) Double-checked hose attachment connection to the carpet cleaner - fully seated, still no signs of flow
At this point I'm somewhat stumped. The carpet cleaner dispenses water through the nozzles in the foot (base) just fine, although I believe that works under gravity rather than utilizing the pump. The PowerShot spot soak feature also works fine. The water supply selector switch is in the "Max Clean" position to enable maximum water flow, and I have the hose positioned far below the level of the water tank and carpet cleaner itself (per a tip from Bissell's website).
My testing reveals at least *some* level of water being pushed by the pump, as the output line flows a solid stream when disconnected from the hose attachment water supply port. I'm also getting water through the port when I depress the spring-loaded plunger seal within it using an unopened ballpoint pen with the unit on.
Is it possible that the pump is working but is worn/weak and is therefore putting out less than the rated pressure? I thought installing a new pump belt would eliminate that possibility, given the simple impeller design. I know the pump is working, I know the water supply from the carpet cleaner is unrestricted, and I know my hose is not obstructed. Not sure where to turn next!
Sorry for the delayed response- You did a masterful diagnosis- I recommend replacing the pump- sometimes the issue is so small even the replaced part look identical to the old part. Meaning that there’s no physical defect on the old part but the replacement solved the problem
@@monroevac - If I did a good job of troubleshooting, it was thanks to all of the helpful and informative video content you've put out explaining the method of operation and disassembly for the Bissell Pro Heat 2x Revolution! I did take your advice and replaced the pump assembly (pump and hose attachment check valve) as it seemed the only possible cause remaining. Lo and behold, the hose attachment was working with great water pressure once more!
However, that only lasted for about 10 minutes of detailing a car seat before the water flow again stopped. The PowerClean spot sprayer function is also no longer working. It acts like the new pump somehow failed. Is that even possible? I mean these have such a simple impeller design it seems there's not much that could go wrong. Pump belt is still intact and appears fine. Symptoms exactly match those before. I'm hesitant to simply replace the pump again for fear of there being some type of underlying cause of the failure. Any ideas?
Thanks, Bud. Good video. Just got done doing my stairs and the thing would not spray. If I stood there long enough squeezing the trigger it eventually worked its way free. Seemed to happen every time I'd stop the machine to deal with one of the tanks. Not sure what the problem is but I flushed the hell out of it before putting it away. Don't know if there's debris in the line, soap scum clogging things up, or a slipping belt. Guess I'll find out next time I use it. Thanks again for the autopsy on the hose. Very useful.
Thanks for watching. Hope you solve that issue.
You are running the clean tank empty each time and loosing prime. Replace the tank when filled and before turning machine on squeeze trigger on upper handle for 30 seconds and see what that does for you
Thanks my friend. It worked. You saved me a lot of time and money.
glad to help
@@monroevac Pump broke again. So glad your video tutorial saved the day again!
Thank you! I purchased a new carpet cleaner and decided to give my Bissell to my son. The handheld tool quit spraying years ago. I just watched your video, checked the pump belt and sure enough...it was snapped in two! I'm ordering a new belt and my son is going ti get am almost-new cleaner! Keep up the good job
Thank you!!! And thanks for subscribing. Will have more tips coming
Thanks so much! I was ready to buy a new machine! You helped me through it and it's working great again!
Glad it helped
Nice and easy to understand video. I like your positive attitude! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Your videos are silly but regardless very fun and helpful. Took apart my first cleaner and your videos helped me. Thank you!
You’re welcome
@@monroevac seriously was a great start to my day. ❤️🌼
Thanks for your detailed instructions. Very helpful.
You’re welcome.
Thank you so much for this video! I recently got this carpet cleaner and the hose with the attachment wasn’t working but after watching this video everything is working just fine.
Awesome. Thanks for taking the time to watch
Your a very good teacher
Thank you Juan.
You saved my day…I was about to buy a new one. If you sold parts I’d pay a little more and buy from you.
Glad it worked out for you. Yes we sell parts monroevacuums.com and if we don’t have it listed, chances are we can still get it. ( if it’s still being manufactured)
Just wanted to say thank you SO much for your videos. I own a small cleaning business & your videos have helped me so much. I don’t have the money to buy a million new vacuums every other day.
Question: any way to repair the shark rocket vacuum whenever it gets wanky at the top?
Very helpful! Thank you very much.
You’re welcome
Oh my gosh thanks for this video! I'm borrowing my mom's ProHeat 2x Revolution and I'm a little stumped. I followed Bissells video with priming, and water flows (a weak stream BTW) when I push the trigger, but when I lift the hose above the water tank (in terms of height) the water completely stops flowing. I cannot figure it out. Still need to take the handle apart like you did, so maybe the problems in there.
Funny thing is, she never even used the attachment....it was all in the accessory bag. Never touched. 😅.
Try the pump belt also. You can get it from the side
Problem solved! Thanks!
Yes! Well worth it. You’re welcome- subscribe if you can-🙏
Thanks man! I’m my woman’s hero tonight thanks to your video! Liked and sub!
Glad to be a life line Christopher😊
Thank you ! Not sure what was wrong but once I got to timestamp 6.03 squeeze the tubing , the flood gates OPENED
Yes. Success. Glad it helped
Thanks for this vid. Found a clog on the spray nozzle.
Glad it helped
What happens if it sprays at the bottom but not out of the hose attachment? I took off the piece to see if it’s getting any solution through the hose and it is not.
Very helpful video. Thanks!
Man, I love your videos. Clear, precise and great personality. Here is my problem. When I pried the tube off after the needle nose plyers, no water is coming out the tube. How can unclog the tube? Thanks again for all your great repair videos.
Hmmm. Good question try pouring warm water with vinegar in the tube. Honestly, I’ve only had that particular issue once and I ended up replacing the hose. The particles that clogged the tubing was too hard
@@monroevac I solved it! I took the housing off both ends of the hose. Took the tubing off each end and blew through each end using my air compressor. I could see gunk come out of the tubing. I reconnected everything and it works fine. I just took your idea for the scrubber end and did it on the other end. Thanks for the inspiration.

I love your videos very simple and straight to the point 👊👍I have a question please the handle from my bissell just broke how can I fix it 🤔any idea 😢
Happy to help...what part of the handle is broken- trigger? Stem? grip?
Thanks for replying in the handle little black part that holds the water tank i don't know if I can order new one maybe???

Hi Wayne. Love your video but my shampooer sprays from the hose but not from the attachment. Can you help me! I have a Bissell 2X ProHeat. Thank you.
Hi Donna, I made a video addressing this issue. Please feel free to take a look. Bissell Attachment not spraying
ua-cam.com/video/675WU23nQRk/v-deo.html
Thanks a lot 👍👊
No problem 👍
please . The cleaner head does not enter the hose. In your opinion, what is the reason?
It spraya on main machine fine but the hand accessorie it sprays but not spray format just low tensity water. What should i do? I cleaned every thing.
Thank you:)
You are welcome “Mo Love”
Love watching your intuative videos. I have a bissle carpet cleaner. The bearings on the front of the unit that is ran by the belt. Can you please do a tutorial on changing the bearings. I would very appreciate your feedback Sir. Note I've had it for 1.5 years. Apparently somehow water from the unit is getting to those 2 rooler bearings causing them to rust, creating seized bearings.
I work on that (although it’s probably easier to replace the shaft) I’ll look into it and post soon. Stay tuned
Can you do a Bissell Spot Clean Heat Pro handheld one???
The brush was working very good,,, then after while doesn't work (as the first time)..please tell me what do you think the error??? 😥😥😥😓😓😓😭😭😭
The first place to. Check is the belt. Both belts may need replacing. Also check the the brush ends (the teeth) hope that helps
Do you give advice on Hoover Smartwash? The hose isn't shooting water. Stopped all a sudden. Nothing clogged in hose or tiny hose.
The smart wash and the Revolution is very similar you can probably find the answer in the Bissell playlist on channel.
Additionally,What I will do is order a Bissell smartwash and properly examine and troubleshoot it and upload a bee videos for that model. So stay tuned
I have the Hoover FlexForce and fixed the clog at the tube and it clogged back up within 5 minutes. 😢
Hmmmm.. try vacuuming longer before Shampooing. It’s not a instafix but it may reduce amount of build up
What if the top trigger isn't allowing the water to spray? My bottom is spraying fine. I have a Per Pro 2X Revolution.
Try removing the two screw at the end of the hose and disconnect the clamp from the inner tubing. Turn on the unit with hose connected to see if the water runs out of the tube. If not then check the section where you connect the hose to the unit to see if there is any blockage.
I'm having the same issue. It hasn't worked since I bought it brand new. There is no clog at the base where the hose connects.
@@lauravenzke9095 That sounds like a manufacture defect. I finally got it back together yesterday. I struggled as the dog knocked it over and broke a piece. I had to use that plastic glue which seems to hold it near the brushes. I figured I can still use the hose spray attachment and the brushes are working just no water from the trigger.
@@lauravenzke9095 If the bottom nozzle sprays and there is no obstruction in the hose then the next step would be to have a tech open it and possibly replace that section of the pump.
my belt turns the brushes just fine but I am not getting any water to the floor. Tank is full, collection tank is empty, it worked last time I used it but getting nothing right now and I have no idea where to look. any tips? how can I be sure the pump is actually working?
First try the hose. If the hose spray, chances are the pump is ok. Next try the spay adjuster on the side of the unit. Make sure it’s on max (up)
My pump is pumping water every where BUT the hose? I completed this elimination process, got to the part where I pull of that tiny clamp and realised that water is not pumping through when the machine is turned on? What does this mean?
Try replacing the pump belt first
Mine sprays water, but The soap doesn’t seem to come out.
How fast should the water flow out of hose I have slow stream coming out when pull off the upholstery tool
Try changing the belt. The belt may be stretched. The pump for the hose is connected to the shaft, which is rotated by the belt that’s powered by the motor
Waye when I press trigger of bissell not spraying of noozle and sucking hose and I check the pump belt it is okay what should I do
The belt don’t have to be broken, it can also be stretched . Try changing it first before testing the trigger or tank
My tool sprays when I take upholstery tool off so the upholstery tool is clogged and can’t get it to work! I tried their way using a paper clip, nothing! Soaking it, now I’m soaking it in vinegar! If that doesn’t unclog it, I don’t know what will!!
I would probably just replace it. Before doing that, try hot water. Not boiling hot but see if that helps to loosen the soap
Almost brand new machine sprayed fine at the hose but not from the base. !st time used it was great but now minimal spray at base? Water tank valve dumps water when pushed.
Mike try the bales on the side of the unit. Make sure it’s set the the top level. Should be on the right side of the body. If your hose is spraying then the pump is good. So try that option first.
@@monroevac Yes, checked everything. Just not spraying and soaping like it did the first time we used it. Hose sprayers just fine and your correct, but the spray bar on the units take more water/pressure to work properly than the hose right?
Mike you may need to call me at the shop. I’ve had to switch out parts at time just to see if it will fix the problem because the 1st stage of elimination came up blank. (Pumps, reservoir, tanks) I took a look at your 1st post again and the last sentence drew my attention “water tank valve dumps water when pushed” maybe if you can explain that with more specific details, I may be able to help. My contact is at monroevacuums.com.
@@monroevac Thanks for the help, the machine is a month old and after contacting bissell they replaced it with an entire new one. I am not sure why the pressure comes out the hose fine but not the base like it did the first use. I will see if I can trouble shoot the old one deeper into the machine as bissell told me to keep it as well for parts or accessories .
@@ElonMuskX THATS AWESOME...That's one of the reasons I like Bissell as a company. I'm currently working on a video to address your issue. Glad they're sending a replacement.
So if the problem is the attachment, is there any way to clear the blockage or do I just have to get a new attachment?
Yes most Bissell Shampooer attachments are interchangeable
Thank you for the video! I do have a question the water is not pumping. It goes through the hose if it’s below the tank but it so suction upward. I told it apart and it flows out if it’s low but if held higher it stops
Hi Samantha, if would help if you knew someone with a Bissell revolution. You could first borrow a hose to compare. Using that method as your first step in the process of elimination. I’ve found that in many cases the hose is the problem. Possibly hardened soap in the tube. But you can also check for carpet fiber in the base where the hose plugs into the unit. Also check the side to make sure the water pressure is on max.Beyond that the only place left is taking the unit apart and possibly replacing the pump.
I full the tank water with boild water after that water tank not spray.what should I do?
Replace the tank. It warped
What about the vac itself isn’t spraying out the soap ? I’m so frustrated with Bissell products...I have the same exact model demonstrated in you video
Possibly clog or pump need replacing..
My water isn't coming out the bottom. My tank did hav a crack n bottom seemed to be leaking. But I wouldn't think this would stop it
Hi Rach, have you tried the hose? To possibly eliminate the tank as the main problem; I recommend connecting the hose and spray. If it does spray, then we are looking a clog in the nozzle jets. If it don't spray, try removing the tank and gently pour water in the small reservoir and see if the pump is pulling the water in. If the pump isn't pulling in the water, (providing you are referring to a bissell revolution) then check for your pump belt on the side. Replace if broken. If those tips don't reveal or solve the problem then take it to a shop. Hope that helps
My pro heat parts need cleaning, how do I take it apart and clean the gunk out?
hmmm. which pro heat-proheat---proheat 2x or proheat 2x revolution? I ask because they are all different in design and size
Hey hope you can help, mines leaking from the clean water thank connector to the machine. Seems like it’s coming from the plastic underneath the actual machine. Right in between both clean and dirty rank theirs a plastic that holds the top tank that part is leaking.
Sounds like the reservoir bottom seal is broken. Take it to a shop..they would have to replace it..
Can you do or do you have a video for the 2x pro-heat revolution?
What problem are you having. I may have covered it and can probably help
Could you help me my carper shampoo does not throw water to clean the carpet what could it be please help
What model is the shampooer?
@@monroevac it is exacly the same as in your video revolution 2x bissell pet carpet cleaner
It's not the water pump belt the belt is working
Four possibilities: the trigger, the tank, the pump, or its clogged. Here is something you can try. Take the tank off and get a cup of water. Turn on the unit and while pressing the trigger, slowly pour some water in the reservoir. If it sprays then you need to replace the tank. If not,, I recommend taking it to a shop. Keep me posted
When I plug my hose in, it starts leaking through the bottom of the cleaner. I can't figure out why, it's brand new and both rubber bands are there
Sorry for delayed response-Does it only leak when the hose is attached.-I would say don't try to fix yourself until the warranty is up- call Bissell to find the closest Warranty center. You mat need a new hose or a pump assembly that connects tp the hose
@@monroevac thanks, I'm just glad to get a reply at all. I'll contact them and see what's up
Hello, I have a Brissell Revolution pet pro 2x heat. My hose won't spray unless I firmly press down on the connection to the vacuum. I checked for foreign obstructions and they're not any. I've reconnected it several times but it only works with downward pressure. Do you know of a possible solution? P.S. the suction on the hoses does work regardless of downward pressure or not. Thank you!
Sound like you may have hardened solution at the base of the tubing. Hard to diagnose without hands on. You can try putting water and vinegar in the clean water tank and try spraying if there is any hardened solution in the hose, then this may help. The only other way to be absolutely sure is to take the unit apart.
@@monroevac Sorry I should have mentioned this that this is a brand new unit and I encountered this issue the first time using it.
Ok...try this...use a phillip screwdriver and remove the cap from the end of the hose (where the trigger is located) separate the tubing and turn the unit on to see if the water flow free and strong. If so.. the the problem is possibly a stiff spring below the trigger. Maybe need some form of lubrication. If not then I recommend contacting bissell to find your closest service center and let the warranty process work for you.
@@stevenleite3786 I have a brand new unit that is having the same issue!!
My Bissell Proheat Revolution 2x sprays out on the hose fine when I use it on floor level, but when I raise the hose up to clean my couch for example it no longer sprays out any solution. Any thoughts as to why this could be?
Test it without the attachment on. Point the hose down and then up and test the water flow
@@monroevac it flows out only when the hose is low enough to about where the hose attachment attaches to the carpet cleaner. But when I raise the hose any higher then it doesn't spray out anything.
To add, I took out the little tube like you showed, and the same thing applies where it flows out only when the hose is low enough and doesn't flow out when I raise the hose higher (whether pointing up or down)
I would then try a different hose before looking at the pump. If you know of someone who own the same unit, ask to try their hose to check. If the same thing occurs then move to the pump. Would hate for you to spend money buying parts and it’s not the problem
@@monroevacso I bought this used and I realized that actually the bristles aren't even spinning. I opened it up and saw that the (smooth, not the geared teeth) belt was broken. If I replace that belt would that also fix up the hose spraying, or is that another problem on top of this?
Im not sure if you got experience with the hoover powerscrub deluxe but I was using it and suddenly it went from spraying a good amount of water to spraying a little water. I know its a sprayer issue but I don’t know how to fix it. I already tried blowing into it, and sticking a wire in it. The solution tank was full
First check the tank (The water release tab at the bottom) make sure water flows when you press. The next steps may require disassembling the unit. I’ll give the short version check the handle trigger make sure it pushing the release ten for the Reservoir. Then check the turbine. Disconnect the tube and try spraying to see if the water flows. I’ll try to put up a video covering these steps
@@monroevac I have already determined that the sprayer hose isn’t the issue. When I cut the solution tube in the sprayer hose, it still gave off a small amount of water. The tank valve also isn’t an issue so its down to that plastic pump. I already tried plastic bonding (Which ended up failing) the impeller in it and giving it some wd-40 and it still doesn’t work
@@monroevac oh I should have mentioned im having issues with the hose not spraying enough water. The sprayer on the main unit for the brushroll is fine
If my memory serves me right, that pump is had to get. What is the model number?
@@waynew7805 FH50150 but I am not looking to pay 60-70 dollars just to replace the pump. Also what do you mean by “That pump is had to get”?
I cannot depress the spray trigger. Any ideas?
Try this video. Bissell revolution handle and trigger fix
ua-cam.com/video/YDtOKUx7YhY/v-deo.html . It may have the answer
@@monroevac Thank you for taking the time to reply! However, I'm referring to the trigger on the hose that my 2 in 1 pet upholstery tool attaches to. It might depress an 1/8th of an inch. When I press it nothing happens.
@@tyghvalleybarber This may seem odd but check you pump belt . A broken pump belt may affect the hose spray. Also to check the end of the hose you can Take a phillip scewdriver and open the end to make sure the spring that sits under the trigger is not rusted. keep me posted
😅I broke two of these..
good video. BUT, video shows all lettering backward.
Thanks for telling me. I’ll look into it
You look like Seal
