I found mine was leaking from the foot jet spray. I blew it out with some compressed air and it seemed to fix it. Before every time I would put the top tank in with water I would get a big pool of water on the floor. Without watching this video I would never have attempted this, thanks.

[@MrBaroo]

Thank you for posting this video!!! What a huge help! I followed the steps and successfully located and fixed my machine. It was the first thing you mentioned - the tank!

If I could give you 100 thumbs up or a million stars I would. We have had this cleaner for a few years and my wife "read the directions" and it has been all hers. The last 2 times she has complained like no other that the suction is not working. I took it apart, checked and found nothing wrong. Finally at my wits end and her exhausting complaining about the piece of junk machine, I watched your video. Huh, human error. I showed her the correct button placements and it is a miracle..... works just great. I need a drink. Thanks and HAPPY NEW YEAR.

[@monroevac]

Happy new year and take one for me🥳 Glad to help

[@BOBANDERSON5150]

Thank you for sharing this video. I have this very same model and had no idea there was a mechanical pump. I removed the pump and found it was clogged with a thick soap paste substance. I never ran clean water through the system after each use. 5 Stars to ya! Thanks, again for the video. 🏁

My gear belt creates a burning smell i came to realize that the metal axel on the upper top that holds on to the belt is the only one spinning.. and not the other bottom axel with the red rubber pulley that holds the lower end of the gear belt isnt spinning.. I need help could it be related to the pump causing it not to spin? Thanks

[@sehfaulkner6255]

How do you test the pump?

[@RajeshKumar-zo3ej]

Thank you so much for your detailed video...Really helpful in order to replace pump. My pump is constantly draining the water without pulling trigger. Any suggestions? Thanks 👍😊

[@monroevac]

Ok this tip a process of elimination. Try removing the handle from the unit. There should be a screw in the back of the handle near the tank. remove the screw, then remove the clean water tank and notice a soft spot. Use a pen or screw drivers do push the soft spot and pull the handle out. After removing handle place the clean water tank with water in it back on the unit. If the water doesn’t spill out then the problem is the handle. If it does then there is a problem with the auto receiver or leak in a hose. Keep me posted.

[@RajeshKumar-zo3ej]

@@monroevac Thanks for your response. I already tried first one and concluded it's not the handle. As soon as I put the clean water tank on the unit, water starts leaking. When I remove the rubber pipe from the pump and put the water tank ...I can see water coming out of pump. Not sure it's the pump issue or the one you're talking about the receiver. Please suggest.

[@monroevac]

[@RajeshKumar-zo3ej]

@@monroevac Thank you for your next video....when i opened the top cover to see how the 1st receiver works with the handle trigger. I noticed two pipe going down. One pipe which controls the water flow through Trigger and second one does not have any control over the water. Same pipe connects to the down pump. When i place the tank on the unit, second pipe starts draining water through pump. So It could be first receiver or the pump. Not working as intended. Can you please suggest anything?🙏

[@boblowe7172]

Forgot to add, the problem as was explained to me was that it wasn't sucking, couldn't see the water coming up. The problem was that the water wasn't going down to get sucked up because of the position of the purple lever on the side. Thanks, again!!!

[@gastonbonesmorris124]

Great video. Sadly when I removed my waterpump I lost the plastic half moon coupler between the steel shafts. Any chance you have that part for sale? Thanks

[@monroevac]

I’ll check. Certain parts are not sold separately, so if i have it; the chances are it would be used.

[@gastonbonesmorris124]

[@follar00]

Hi! Do you know of a type of sealant i could use within the pump itself? The pump works fine, but the gasket is basically gone and leaks. Any help is appreciated! Great videos!

[@monroevac]

Honestly, I’ve never used Sekt for the pump- I just replace- original pump is the way to go

[@fracturedmind8124]

Hello I know this is a late reply but is there a chance that the bearings on that shaft connected to the pump could go bad? My 2X has been making a sort of clunking and squeaky noise when turning off but when I take off the belts it’s doesn’t do it.

[@monroevac]

Yes it can go bad- replacing is not too difficult check my Bissell playlist

[@michaeljoynt2836]

is it possible to test the pump by removing it and with the hose in a cup of water spin it with a drill to pump water? and if not its a bad pump

[@monroevac]

Yes I believe you can I use to do that test with the older proheat- but leave the pump in place and disconnect the hose from the section that coming out of the main body and feed the water in that way. This way you can see if the pump operates under normal conditions

[@joanbrieler6814]

Thank you i followed your video my problem is how to replace the shroud do i work from the back to front or snap the cover first on the front ??Thank you for your time great videos

[@monroevac]

Yes you can work from the back to the front, Just take your time

[@richp5285]

Thanks for the video, I followed your instruction on replacing the pump belt, but after replacing it the belt broke again after running it for less than a minute. I noticed that the motor gear turns freely but the pump gear does not. I think this is what caused the new belt to break so I think I need to replace the pump. Does that seem correct to you? I have the 1986 model. I'll order the new belt and pump through your links. Thanks Rich

[@monroevac]

Sound right, but the description you gave puts in mind of the pump shaft. The part with the red ball. Part number 1610501. Keep me posted

[@4444mongo]

Hello can you work on changing the bearing on the spindle and let me know if it is possible as it is cheaper to change bearings than the whole spindle

[@Julie_the_land_mermaid]

When I put the gear belt back on the brush it does not roll. Is it because mine looks like it has rust and that is what keeps it from rolling? Or did I just put it back on wrong maybe? Just need a tip before I take it apart again. Thank you in advance.

[@monroevac]

Rust can prevent it from turning but you can test it by turning the shaft (with the red ball) and also try turning the brush. If they are stiff then they may need replacing. Also check your pump belt

[@trishr.3986]

Hi! Happy New Year, 2022! Somehow your video came up for me. I have a Bissell Revolution Pet Pro model 1986. I actually have barely had it for about 6 months. What has happened is the brushes don’t roll when I release the position to clean, from upright. If I have it in the locked upright position and leaning it back I can see the brushes are spinning. I checked the belts and they are not broken. It does spray and suction fluid. I have only used this cleaner a couple of times. I have emailed support (just today). You are so detailed about showing what to do about the pump that I am wondering if you would know why the brushes don’t spin in the working position. I think it’s pretty decent of you to be willing to help people with their machines issues. Very much appreciated. The Bissell manual doesn’t even discuss the brushes spinning, except in a small section of attachment of the hose and accessories in that the brushes will continue to spin (and to say do not leave it in that position long to avoid damage to the floor surface. It seems odd that the brushes would continue to spin in that regard. I would have thought by attachment of the hose it would disable the brushes. The KZbin support videos discuss how to change the belts, but I still haven’t found any issue like I am having. I like the way you painted one of your models. My mom had a Kirby. Really heavy. Since I was the one who kept house I was the main driver for it. They don’t make things like that anymore. I have no idea what she did with it either. 🐲

[@monroevac]

Check the pomp belt. Even if it’s not broken you may need to change it

[@MendTheWorld]

There's simply no mechanism for disengaging the notched belt that connects the pump motor to the brushes. When the machine is on, the brushes spin.

[@michaelkrailo5725]

Great video but when I try to get the right side plastic part off, it just won't come off. It would have been nice to show us how those clips work on the back part of that silver top piece. I don't want to break my clips, and I have already use a ton of force on it already. I just need to see how that clip attaches in the back area to know better how to pry it up with out working against the clips hooking direction. You made that part look very easy, but in my case, it just won't dislodge. Everything else in the video is super great. Edit: Hot diggity dog, I didn't end up having to go into the pump after all. All those tiny little final nozzle ports on the removable plastic piece were all visibly plugged up with some black sludge. I soaked the the whole thing in a tub of water outside for half hour or so and then used a twisty tie from a loaf of bread to clean out each output nozzle port. Just use a lighter to melt off the plastic stuff from one end of the twisty tie to make the perfect tool for cleaning out those jet ports. Works like new again.

[@monroevac]

I have a few videos in my Bissell tips playlist that may help you navigate the system better. Check the out

[@lionelalvarez8956]

I need to know if the pump belt is the same belt that makes the rollers spin.

[@monroevac]

You do need the pump belt in order for the pump shaft to spin the brush belt rides on the pump shaft so both belts are needed

[@ImPokaYoke]

What can I do if I start cleaning and it throws the dirt from the back down area, Do I miss a gasket? How can I fix it?

[@monroevac]

🤔 hard to say. The first step is to identify exactly what part of the unit is leaking. Could be the lower hose. It could also be the nozzle window. Start by finding the leak and then we'll look at possible fixes. Best of luck to you. Keep me posted

[@micheleharris9720]

my revolution model #1548F, shoots water out from where the water is supposed to come from when using the hose when trying to shampoo carpet. Could the hoses be misdirected, or could it be the pump?

[@monroevac]

Yes sounds like the pump

[@colestreit1500]

My shampooer is spraying and sucking water, but the bristles are only turning if it's off the carpet. As soon as I put it down, it'll stop turning. Almost like there isn't enough power for the bristles to turn. Please help!

[@monroevac]

1st check your pump belt you can access it on the idle panel near the wheel opposite the handle release pedal- change that belt then if it doesn’t fix the problem, continue to the brush and geared belts- keep me posted

[@colestreit1500]

@monroevacsupplies I checked the belt, and it looks like and smells like it is burning from friction. I turn it on, and I can see that the metal rod is turning, but the belt is stopped when the bristles are on the carpet. It's sliding. I'll clean it up and change the belt. Hopefully, that is the issue! Thank you!!

[@nileremsing3382]

My used Bessel revolution pet has lost its cap for hose assembly. Would that stop sucking into dirty bottle ?

[@monroevac]

which cap? if it's the cover/cap that is located in the nozzle, then yes.. To test this...try covering the opening..possibly with tape to see if the suction returns. if the cap you are referring to is on the hose end that you hold when when using the upholstery tool ....then it would only impact the suction when using the hose and not the floor

[@le8811]

Got the new bissell ProHeat 2X® Revolution "carpet cleaner they keep sending me belts that connect to brush rollers that are to small I only used my carpet cleaner for half a room until the belt on left side is so stretched out the rollers slip they keep telling me the belts r correct had 2 mechanical people look at it and tried belts they said your belts are wrong size but bissell keeps saying they are had the cleaner 4 four months but had surgery so on my first attempt the belt failed before I got one room cleaned any ideas

My belt isn't broken but it has a loud noise and burning smell. Please help!! I can't find anytime helpful

[@monroevac]

Are you able to determine if the noise is coming from the brush or from the motor area? One test is to disengage the belt and then turn the unit on to see if the noise is still there. If the noise is not there, the problem may be the brushes.

Check the pump shaft see if it turns freely without the belt. Take off the belt cover on the side and remove then use your hand to try to rotate the shaft. If it not d heft then try the brush roll. Examine each roll to see if there’s melting on the ends
