Agreed, I get irritated listening to everyone think people want to listen to then.....I always think just get to point. Thanks for the comment and hope you got it.
I love you man! I have an assistant that literally assists me with whatever wild project I have at any given moment. I have an Airbnb tiny house in my yard which I built. There's always something to do in regards to woodworking, upkeep, sewing, etc. etc. The carpet cleaner is an absolute must. I bought it used for $12 at a Goodwill. My assistant said it wasn't a good buy because it didn't work at all. But! Thanks to you, she and I got in there and fixed it per your amazing instructions. I think we'd just hand wash the carpet tonight with out it... but that would have been no fun. Thanks for lightening my load! Btw, I'm a 60+ woman and yes, of course I can do most things a man can. :-) And now, add repair carpet cleaner to my repertoire. Thanks!
I'm not sure of your assistants age, but the experience ay have helped her to realize she can do more than she thinks too. Glad it worked for you and you both have more experience then most at this now....Thanks for the post.... I really do appreciate it when people let me know if it helped them out or not, if they found a different issue or have questions they need help with....... Thanks again...
Good, informative video. Preventative maintenance is the key to longevity, empy tanks when done using, run some clean water thru the system to wash out the cleaning solution, keep spraying so that the pump can empty out all of the solution hoses. If you have hard water use some washing soda in the water. (Hard water contains calcium and magnesium ions. The carbonate ions from washing soda produce a chemical reaction and removes the calcium and magnesium from the water).
Thanks VERY much ... got mine going again. I've had mine for over 15 years and, sure, stuff needs maintained like anything does but it's still going strong.
I am 62 years old woman and on a limited income. Your video saved me! Thanks so much for your time and detailed information, my carpet cleaner works again.😘😘😘😘
Yay!!!! It's always a great feeling to know you did something on your own and to top it off saved a bunch of $$$. Glad the video was of some help to you. Thanks for the comment. Wish more people left comments letting me know it helped. Woman can do anything!!! Well anything I do can be done by a woman, and most kids. Most things just take patience and a willing to follow instructions... Hopefully this leads to more at home fixes and more $ in your pocket....
Hey man you are a life saver. I thought that I was going to have to buy a new carpet cleaner. Thanks to this video mine works like a charm again. Now my wife thinks I'm a hero now. Thanks for the help and God bless you.
+Calvin Hodges Thanks for the comment. It is nice to hear it helps. Makes me want to make more videos. It is always nice when you plug it back in and it works and all your hard work paid off..........Thanks again for the post. Wish more people would :)
Great step by step video. Thank you! The only thing I couldn't figure out was how to get the 2hoses off. Metal clips were on there good. I threaded a piece of wire through to make sure it wasn't blocked.
Thanks for the comment! Nice solution to check instead of breaking something and creating more hassle. Great advice for people with the same issue. Thanks!!!
Dude...thanks so much for this video....I was trying to fix the wrong section....My steam cleaner now works again...It is a different Bissell but the repair was the same....We had only used ours twice...I will make sure to clean it out good after each use now...
Yeah it's no fun when you got a new machine and they have these issues. Glad you got it fixed! thanks for letting me know, wish everyone left a comment. Always nice to get a thanks.... I appreciate it
Thanks for the reply, glad it worked for you. But you did all the work, so you saved it. Doesn't it feel good when you get it fixed on your own with out paying someone 100 bucks to do it? Thanks again for the reply and glad you got it fixed
+jaz4dre Awesome!!! Thanks for the post. Wish more people would let me know. I appreciate the feedback and glad you're up and running now. It's nice to know when it helps someone out! Thanks again...
Thanks for the comment. UA-cam is great for fixing most everything... Glad the video was of use and the comments help support my channel.... So thanks to you also for commenting :)
Sweet! Glad it helped... Thanks for letting me know, wish more people did. Makes it more worth my while to post. Glad you're up and running and Thanks again for the post...
I have a Bissell model 25A3 and these directions worked for me. The heater core had a few areas of a white sludgy substance and this was also in one of the water inlets. The obstruction didn't seem like it would have been enough to stop the flow, but apparently it was. To others who would try this: Make sure you note the locations of the ground, hot, and neutral wiring connections as well as the 2 water line connections before disconnecting and removing the heater core. This is a $40 part so it mine ends up leaking, I will just replace that part.
Btw..... I followed everything you said and took my steam cleaner apart screw by screw all by myself and it still doesn't work 😣 It was actually very clean inside the heating element. I opened the cover where the belt is and noticed that no liquid is going through the clear tube right there. I'm guessing there is something wrong after the liquid leaves the heating element. The hand tool works perfectly....... Now I gotta do some more research and then take the entire bottom apart. This video was very helpful to me so I was wondering if you had any other suggestions?? Thank you!!
Disconnect the tube coming from the heating block down to the bottom. Blow into it. If you can't blow into it , there is an obstruction. You might dislodge whatever it is (could be residue from the heating block) and it'll end up trapped in the filter screen. If you are unable to blow into the hose you need to check in different spots to find the obstruction. Since your hand tool works, the pump is obviously working.
The problem with mine was the pump belt broke. Replacement part Bissell Deep Cleaner Belt Package includes the pump belt and the brush belt...replace both at the same time.
Use google translate Hice todo lo que dijiste tarde como una hora y media además limpie todo desconecte las mangueras y les puse una manguera con agua a precios para limpiarlas también y me quedó perfecta Good information man thanks
Thanks for the post. Glad it helped. I always enjoy hearing when it worked and knowing it saved someone a bunch of $$$. If you didn't already please click "like"....Thanks for you support and glad it worked for you...
I truey don't understand why shampooers have regular screw used in the machine. You would think that they would use a rust resistant coated screw. Thay also use cheep screws that strip when you need to remove them . The companys that make shampooers probably do this so you will end up duying a new one.
+seanx666 He didn't remove and clean it so would guess that it needs it. There's a small screen/filter right under the spinner and it doesn't take much to close the gap between the filter and the spinner. Remove and rinse under warm water works every time for me.
I would like to know how to get suction from my stainpro Q6 Amazon technicians don’t have a clue , BISSELL are not available to talk! It’s only been used once but on the second try it won’t suck up water ! It is not damaged in any way . It’s driving me mad and the la know help from the retailer and the manufacturer is infuriating ! Can anyone help ?
Best Idea: Don't waste your money on a Bissell cleaner to start with. Bought it brand new. Tried to use it and no water comes out. It does blow dirt into my water though. ???
Don't ever buy a Bissell. I'v had mine 2 yrs. Every time I use it it quit spraying. Been to the shop 2 times to be fixed, used it today and it's not spraying yet again. What a piece of JUNK!!!!
+Elizabeth Levtzow That sucks! If it is hardly getting used that seems to happen. I've had to go through mine once more after I got it going here, but one you got it, ya gotta fix it or spend a bunch to get a new one!
I appreciate the quick editing. So many videos people just drone on and on. 👍🏼
Agreed, I get irritated listening to everyone think people want to listen to then.....I always think just get to point. Thanks for the comment and hope you got it.
Brilliant. Worked completely. Thanx...
Thank you for this video my vac is now working again. Saved me almost 100 bucks to get it fixed.
Wow... exactly what mine was doing... by passed heater and now have flow. Thanks to your video I can now clean the heater...Thanks. God Bless
Thank you. It work. I fixed my Bissell carpet cleaner by following you instructions. Very useful. Yousave me $$$ and I don't have to buy a new one.
Lewanna Cho Glad it helped out. It's always nice knowing you saved yourself a bunch of money :) Thanks for watching.

Outstanding: I popped mine open and I looked someone calked the insides shut. Excellent job on video and thanks for sharing!
Awesome! glad you got it fixed... Most people just throw them in the trash and buy a new one. Thanks for the post and glad you figured it out...
Fixed my problem. Thanks! Also helpful to use a paper clip to clean small holes to tubes (which were clogged) and an old tooth brush.

the cleaning brushes wont spin are there replacement parts?
Does this problem affect the hand tool? Our cleaner only fails to spray from the base, but the hand tool works just fine.
All liquids pass through here. Sounds like you have a differnt issue
How come the flow indicator wasn't spinning after you were done?
+seanx666
He didn't remove and clean it so would guess that it needs it. There's a small screen/filter right under the spinner and it doesn't take much to close the gap between the filter and the spinner. Remove and rinse under warm water works every time for me.

flow indicator not working
How you knew it wasn't your pump?
For me didn’t work it was the pump

This company needs to be sued I had two of these pieces of shit break down on me.
The best fix is to buy a Rug Doctor Mighty Pro.
