hope it helps me, appreciate it!

Thanks for the tip! My Bissell Proheat Pet carpet cleaner was not spraying from the floor sprayers nor hand tool. Installing the belt was very easy and I thought it would resolve my issue completely, but it didn't. However, I can say it helped as it was a combination of things that ended up resolving the no spray issue. And here is everything I did to finally get my cleaner to work...might be your case too - unclogged one line near the auto load receiver (where the water tank valve connects), placed a tire valve cap (can use a screw) which pushes up on the tank valve to allow the water pump to do its thing, unclogged the heater (it was filled with gunky soap and calcium), and finally replaced the water pump (it would spray for just a few seconds, then go into a drip and finally no water) in both floor and hand tool sprayers. Just a note, these repairs did not happen over night or a few hours, if you know what I mean, but determination and confidence that I was going to fix this plastic machine kept me at it! Ensure unit is unplugged when working around internal components. Good luck! (Don't give up!)

Yay! Thanks! Belt was stretched out, but not broken, as you said.water was just dribbling. This was the cheap fix i needed! Awesome. Most other videos did not address this issue. Appreciate you!

Thank you so much. Quick easy fix. I simply opened it, noticed the belt wasn't on the metal part, put it on there, and fixed!

Thank you for this Video! I've been going nuts trying to get mine to work before we leave our rental at the end of the month. Just ordered belts and I'll try replacing them Wednesday when they get here so I can clean my carpets!

Thank you for this!! Like you said in your video I did everything possible to try and get mine to spray water, I was not even getting drops. I looked at the belt and it was ripped in half. Ordered a new one and fixed it. Life savor! This carpet cleaner was surely about to get tossed in the trash otherwise.

Good call on it being one of the easiest to overlook repairs. Thanks for the tip.

Wow! I was on the verge of throwing this machine in the dump! My belt is stretched but still let me finish my joy while ordering the new one! Thank you.

I agree with the kudos and the sentiment here, check the simple things first. Replacement belts should be available, you can just buy by length, just like a mower tractor belt, car accessory belt or any other belt out there. And what's up with the dislikes? This is good advice. Some people need to get a hobby.

Thank you so much, I love my cleaner and knew it had to be something simple!!

Thank you for this video coz we just bought our bissel and i am having the same problem! im going to get belts this weekend

Thank you so much for making this vid!!!! We are having the non-spraying problem with our wet vac and I have ordered 2 hoses for now and later.

You are awesome. Thank you.

Thanks, will check the belt..... wonder if Walmart has belts in there vac section

I have a pet pro heat 2. 2021 model Sprays out the hose fine, but not the foot. When new it worked great but on the 2nd use a month later doesn't spray the same at the foot, hardly like it did the first time?????

Thank you I was bout ready to throw out the unit. Exactly the problem both belts replaced unit like New

Did you find it didn’t spray at the foot? My issue is similar however I get adequate spray thru the attachments but not the foot. I’m gonna try replacing the belt to see if that works to fix this issue because I am all out of ideas

Thanks. I'm going to try this

Would this be the same as why I have no suction? Thanks

Yes we have same machine for 12 years...belt broken so will get one and see..thanks

That’s odd. I found my Bissell on the side of the road. Took it home and cleaned it up. Replaced a few of the consumable parts (belt, etc) and it’s been running great since then. Seeing how badly mine was abused by the previous owner, I’d have to say it’s a fairly predictable and reliable machine. Good luck with your cleaner.

I was ready to get a new pump. Belt looked fine, but after this I see it's shot.

I don't think so. If you are having fluid pump issues you may want to check the traps to see if there is any lint in the filters slowing down the fluid passages. Also make sure the tank is pressed in securely; I've had it a few times where I thought it was in but it wasn't seated all the way.

Probably where you put the collection container, it probably doesn’t have a good seal. Open up the container and then take it off, clean around where the top goes back on the container. Put it back together and you should be good. If not, take it outside pick it up over your head and throw it as far as you can. And that should pretty much take care of it. Problem solved.

I did a test from someone I seen online they said to put water on the floor and use the Bissell well it sucked the water up but I don't think it works without me putting the water on the floor 1st so idk 🤪

I have the same problem but only the tool is spraying and not the main floor cleaning bit, which tells me the belt is fine? Any ideas please?

@jmayor88

Well the only way to know if the belt is "fine" is to open it up and check and see if it is taught or not. Having a new belt to compare it to is a good idea. If you are having issues with spray from the main housing in the front then it may just be clogged with lint; that is pretty common as well. I'm no Bissell tech, though... check everything from lint traps to seals and the nozzles themselves. A tooth brush can clean nozzles very easily.

@@jmayor88No worries. Good job.

so many videos tap dancing around the issue that I have. Loads of people have weak flow, no flow to the hose, Bissell seems to think were all morons and forget to fill the soap bottle and everyone mentions changing the belts. My belts are fine, the brushes turn full power, the vac works 100% there is not weak flow, there is literally zero flow. I tore it down to expose the pump, removed it and spun it with a power drill and there is zero suction. There is next to no one talking about the pump and how to test it for failure. We have had our unit for a few years and in that time have not used it much except for 1 room deep clean and a few carpet spot cleanings. The thing I think happened is the soap chemicals destroyed the pump seals from sitting in the pump after use. I think after replacing the pump I am going to flush the unit with just hot water to make sure there is no soap residue in the pump after use before sitting in storage for another year. I got their branded soap on my skin once and it burned like hell, so I can imagine it melting away rubber or plastic seal parts inside the pump.

Get to the point. And then show how to put the belt on.
