Possible Causes

Broken trigger return spring, Worn trigger pivot, Cracked trigger lever, Misaligned trigger rod to microswitch

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the Husqvarna carpet cleaner before opening the handle.

  • Open handle housing: Remove screws and separate the handle halves to expose the trigger mechanism.
  • Inspect trigger parts: Look for broken plastic around the pivot, missing or stretched springs, and misaligned rods.
  • Replace worn parts: Install a new Husqvarna trigger lever or spring kit if components are damaged.
  • Reassemble and test: Ensure the trigger reliably actuates the microswitch and returns fully when released.
