Replacing the Spotbot's Hose

Replacing the Spotbot's Hose - The hose on my Spotbot cracked near the handle and now it has to be replaced (or buy a new Spotbot). The process is simple if you have seen someone do it so join me as I swap out the damaged hose for a new one.

    Thank you so much for this video! I replaced my hose by myself. But this is 2024 and my new one was over $30. Better than a whole new machine.

    Thanks for this video. Replaced my hose without removing the plug on the top and it was easy to do. The small plastic spray hose was hard to get on so I just soaked it in hot tap water for 30 seconds and it went on like butter. Hope this helps for someone else.

    I called a repair place and he was going to charge $25 for the hose assembly and $80 for labor because you have to "disassemble the whole thing" and said in his opinion it wouldn't be worth it. Yeah, no joke! He obviously hasn't seen your video. I am a DiY'er when it comes to certain things and I'm going to give this a shot. So glad I stumbled upon this video, can't thank you enough! Update 10-28-21 -- I received the part today and installed it in less than 10 minutes (thanks also for the tip from commenter Kim Kayzer who suggested soaking the small hose in hot water)! Wow, these are times when I really love the Internet. What a great community!! I ended up spending a total of $17 and picked up other tips from commenters here. For example, I hadn't ever used the handheld attachment to soak up the excess water left on the carpet, just a few towels. I feel like such an idiot 🙄it works like a charm!

Thank you so much for taking the time to put this together. Thank you also for the "turn the tank upside-down to avoid leaks" tip. Don't know why, but I never thought to do that.

    Thank you for this! My 10 year old Spotbot pet edition hose broke in the usual place yesterday, and I was debating between buying a new hose or buying a fancier new machine (which isn't really in the budget right now) so looked around to see how hard the hose would be to replace. New hose now ordered, and thanks to you, I'm sure I ordered the correct one.

    Thank you! Incredibly easy to follow along. I wouldn’t recommend trying this replacement while keeping that cable bus (computer cord) attached. I’d worry about stressing that cable while trying to get at everything. Break one of those internal connections and you’re really hosed. (Pun intended.) Thanks again!

    Thanks! This video was very helpful. I wouldn't have attempted the repair without your help. It was very easy to understand! I watched it once all the way through and bought the Bissell marked part and it came in an envelope from B & M Housewares. It looked great. Once it arrived I stopped and started your tutorial with each step. Through no fault of your teaching or my work, the new part leaks at the part where hose becomes part of the "s" shaped plastic piece before it goes into the machine. Sigh! hose itself isn't leaking from what I can see but a part of the grey plastic part does as soon as the power stops. Inside of the machine is nice and dry, it only leaks at the one area but it just keeps draining the hose. I'm torn between spending another $16.00 and trying again or giving up and getting a brand new machine. SIGH! I guess I'll see what sort of guarantee there is but not sure that it's worth the effort to call and return it in case the same thing happens. Anyway.....Thanks again for the easy to understand video. YOU are great!

    Hi. I removed the clear tube at the 5:00 mark. Just pinch the tube clamp and slide it up the tube then you slice the tube carefully so it slips of the connect. The new hose should come with a new clear tube installed and clamp.
