Possible Causes

Empty clean water tank, Airlock in solution line, Blocked spray nozzles, Weak or failed solution pump

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the Philips carpet cleaner before removing tanks or nozzles.

  • Check tank level and seating: Fill the clean water tank and ensure it is properly latched into place.
  • Clean spray bar: Remove the spray bar or nozzle assembly at the front. Soak in warm water and gently clear each jet with a soft brush or toothpick.
  • Prime the system: Reinstall the tank and nozzles. Plug in the unit, then hold the trigger continuously for 30–60 seconds to purge air from the lines.
  • Inspect solution hoses: Look for kinks or pinched hoses between the tank, pump, and spray bar. Straighten or reroute as needed.
  • Assess pump operation: Listen for the pump when the trigger is pressed. If silent or only humming weakly, the pump may be failing and should be replaced.
