Enjoyed watching the video. I stripped mine down as I had an identical leak from under the chrome cylinder cover but wasn’t sure if it was the part you replaced as I couldn’t see any hair-line cracks. I decided to take the gamble for £29 also bought from spares2 you. 2 of us put it back together (you did very well lining everything up ready for the bolts to go back in all on your own)👍 I did the test without putting the cover back on and hay presto everything worked. After. 10 minutes of using the machine the plastic elbow which fits on top of the cylinder and joins on to the cast iron elbow which fits onto the water pipe also developed a hair-line crack. I am now in the process of ordering that part and fingers crossed that should be it.
Well done you. Mine broke again so I just binned it. I just buy cheap pressure washers on Amazon now. Never again will I waste money on another karcher 👍🏻🥃🥃
Thanks for the video. I turned on my K4.600 today after 3 years of it being in the garage and guess what ... had exactly the same issue ! Now i know what to do, thanks again.
I had a rusted broken spring on internal switch in that white housing, karcher wants £50 for the whole switch assembly including mains wire and plug as they don't sell spring separately👎🤬, got some springs from a manufacturer, fitted it and it now switches on and off as it should ! 👍😃
Good amusing video. Not a problem with my K.5700. My machine simply stopped working in the middle of a project. Stripping it down - the bolt holding the ‘wobble plate’ had fractured. A £350 machine and a bolt inside breaks - that’s simply a bad component during manufacture - and just out of warranty with no redress back to Karcher. But I agree with you, why do Karcher use a hard plastic for components under stress, apart from built in obsolescence ( and a waste of resources ).
Nice video. Thanks! The main cause of cracks like that is the ice. Most people dont pay attention during winter, and left their Karcher filled with water. That water turns into ice, and since the ice take more space than same amount of liquid water, it ends with exactly same cracks like that in the video. So, people, empty your machine during the freezing days!
I thought I was safe leaving mine in the garage over winter . Wrong. Lesson learned . Thanks for sharing though to help everyone else watching. Much appreciated
Thank you for the video. I had the same symptoms and found out I had the same crack at the exact same place. I first replaced the triangle ring without sucess, only after that I noticed the crack. I just ordered the part. Let's hope I get as successfull as you. Like many, I left my pressure washer during winter in the garden shed without draining it first. Mr. Freeze had no mercy. Lesson learned.

Thanks - was really helpful in trying to troubleshoot my dad's K4, which he claims was 'meant' to leak and always be on (He's often stubborn about these things!). Little plastic pump head had indeed split and spraying a jet of high pressure water around inside the unit. Seems strange they wouldn't have used a metal piece given the right angle and the high pressure directed straight into it, but the machine has had 6 years of use and Karcher parts are pretty plentiful/compatible so can't be too aggrieved.
Only taken a year to find some help on this after last winters cold snap in Aberdeenshire! Various repair centres said they wouldn't touch it and it was cheaper to buy new..... Someone on fbook mentioned a cheap fix with a 90deg bend part at the inlet and have now found your ace video too! Going to strip down this week and see if it's the same as you found. If successful, I can't thank you enough!!

Well done for mending your pressure washer, mines got the same problem it’s just over a year old but only used twice. I resent having to buy the parts for what is obviously a common problem. My last karcher washer had the same problem but I just chucked it out as I left it out one night when we had a slight frost, thinking it was beyond repair. I will buy the part and repair mine but never again will I buy anything from karcher.
Totally agree Mike. Overpriced and built with shit. 💩. I’ve bought a couple of cheap ones off Amazon. Only 120 bar - not as powerful but does a decent job. Just make sure you drain it in the winter and keep it away from frost 👍🏻
Hello, just thought I'd left you know I watched your video on Saturday evening as I have a karcher k4 and it had started surging when in standby. (It had been to karcher and they had said it was due to me using an extension lead....and not enough volts to the pump. To be fair to them they didn't charge me and it was ok for an hour or so) Anyway, I took it apart and I found the big triangular O ring on the junction between the pump and the plastic cylinder head wasn't seated correctly, nipped by the lid. I re-sat it and after reassembly, back to full pressure. Thank you, Laurie
@@randomtherapy thanks, I've had it 6 yrs, used it 6 times if that! 2 yrs ago the surging started, I took it to them and they said it ran fine, perhaps overheating etc. I used it last week for 2 hours and the surging started.... You fixed it!
Mines has just started leaking from inside casing as well. Thanks for yer video. You've given me the confidence to strip it down n see where its coming frae. Will let ye know how a get on wae it.
Just remember stevie to take your time and remember it’s top heavy so will fall and break the hose connector if your not careful. It’s an easy fix that will cheer you up when it’s working 👍🏻🥃🥃
Thank you mate, just picked one up at John Pye Auctions and it has exactly the same issue, I've stripped the front off and it's coming out the side. Just the rest to strip out and order new part. 🙏
Useful warning to hopefully stop someone else doing this! I did this repair successfully and left the machine standing without the front cover on. WARNING - the unit it is front heavy!! The whole unit tipped over and the thin grey T shaped spindle (see it in the video sticking out) that is connected to the mains switch unit and fits into the front On/Off switch hit the floor and snapped off. You can't seem to get these as spares so I had to buy a complete mains switch / cable assembly for £38. I considered trying to repair but it is so thin and it snapped just at the point it enters the housing. (An expensive faux pas).Quite a few bad things about the design of this unit - the least of which is the plastic PRESSURE head. (On the other hand if this wasn't plastic then the the metal housing might crack instead which would be much more expensive to replace)
I've got K4 1.637-3110 but theres no external crack visible. It doesn't leak when the motor is off, weirdly. As soon as yoi turn it on... Spewing water where the white electrucal housing meets the pump head. Any advice would be very much appreciated 🙏🤗
@@phoenixrisinguk The one in this video had a 'massive hairline crack'. In my case it was invisible to the naked eye. Once the pump tries to build up pressure it forces water out of the crack - in my case a fine spray but enough to cause the 'hunting' and failure to build to full pressure. Pretty sure my issue was caused by not draining after use by running on with no water connected and it being stored in an unheated garage over winter. The freezing of the water then did the damage.
Thanks very much for the video. I’ve just had exactly the same leaking problem you describe: so I’ll follow you directions and strip it down and hopefully 🤞I can also fix the problem. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. All the best
Thanks for the kind words and support James. Take your time and also look at the other comments for a few tips. It’s easier than you think so go get it 👍😁
When you shut down your pressure washer, turn off the water supply, and remove hose pipe, remove vario lance from trigger gun. Run machine for approx 10 seconds to pump out water. This will leave your machine frost protected during winter!!!
Take your time Ross and read the comments before starting the job. It’s easy and you will get there. Thanks for the support and the lovely comments. Cheers mate 👍🏻🥃🥃
Hi, video really good. Not too Technical and straight to the point. Easy to follow. I have similar issue with my K4 Full Control pressure washer, but cannot find the replacement part (control head) Would you be able to advise where I can buy one please?

@@randomtherapy Eh don't know what gave it away. Eh must have noticed a wee Dundee quirk in your accent. 😁 Just a quick note to say fixed my Karcher leak. Turned out to be the top elbow joint. Fantastic local supplier in Inverurie got me the bit. Took a wee while to free it as the clamp was seized solid but my trusty mole grips sorted it (bought when I was about 18 for £2.99 - best buy ever). Anyway, thanks again for your video, which gave me the info I needed and a great laugh at the same time. Have a great weekend, and take care.

Thanks for a great video. I'm thinking of getting the K4, first ever pressure washer, but read lots of people moan about the water leaks. Your experience has shown me that if that happens then its a not a major problem and can be fixed quite easily by draining the unit before storing over the winter months should prevent this. My only other concern is most people complain about the pressure hose twisting up during use, what's your experience?
In all honesty it depends on what you will use it for. Mine has broken again and might try to fix it but in the meantime I'm just buying cheap stuff from amazon. Away to do a review very soon on my next purchase 👍
ive done one of these before and i can see you are struggling by putting pressure onto the top end . you dont need to put any force on it as the bolts are long enough to screw in and all you need to do is make sure the switch box as you screw the pump bolts down goes straight into the side of the motor. also the other places the k4 leaks is the elbow on the backfoot and the high pressure pipe which fastens to the top of the pump but you can buy both these pipes in alloy and they never leak again
Thanks James. Your input is very much appreciated. I've seen the elbow replacement and thinking of doing that as an upgrade to lessen the chance of it breaking again . Please subscribe and keep the comments coming. Will be putting another karcher video up next week and will give you a mention in that . 👍😁
the high pressure pipes are plastic and moulded in 2 halves hence why they split and leak . the complete alloy elbow and backfoot is around £16 off ebay and the high pressure pipe which fastens to the top is approx £10
That's my intention James. There very expensive and karcher have a large following. They should be making these with stronger parts . As you said you can buy them to fix it . Top man thanks again my friend 👍🥃🥃
Hi Pete. Found my new invoice as I’ve just bought another one. Google spares2you. And the part number is pressure washer control head 9.002-010.0 Regards Ian 🎉
Great video after watching I decided to tackle my K4 and found the same airline crack in the control head, unfortunately the retaining clip was badly coroded trying to remove it the motor act slipped out of my grip and some of the interior parts fell out I managed to locate the parts and work out where they had to go but I was left with one small blue plastic piece could not work out where it fits, any ideas.

Obviously this is a fault with the k4 same problem for me, Edit: thanks man you gave me the confidence to operate on my marcher, wasn't the same issue in the end but sorted now back to 100%, the water inlet has two screws holding the to the frame, these popped on me, found after 10 mins inspection for hairline cracks 🤣
I had the same problem and repaired it with the new part and no leak, but not its making a pulsating noise when I turn it on and has no pressure. Any ideas ??
@@scottishsuzuki8132 keep me updated mate as i have another problem so a part 3 video will be getting done at some time.. hope you find a fix for it though mate 👍
What is the name of the part we need to order fro Spares2You? I've just went to use my K4 after 7-8 months out of use, last autumn and winter, discovered it has the same issue, what is the part called?
www.spares2you.co.uk/karcher-k3-k4-pressure-washer-control-head/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw0YGyBhByEiwAQmBEWiCmuN6B3GTzkQJTuPNTKc2U4fail7dZBPVQomvdrm5KCFHN2L3exxoCQfkQAvD_BwE Here you go
Hi. This was the problem on my husbands pressure washer - ive replaced the part and no more leak 👍 However, im now having a problem with it maintaining maximum pressure - when operating if the hose is put to maximum pressure it works until the gun trigger is released, sounds like it's sucking air back. When the trigger is pulled again there is no pressure unless you turn the lance down to low output and then back up to maximum ( if that makes sense!). Any ideas why?
Sounds like a gasket is not seated right or tightened down enough and it’s still getting air in. You won’t need to tighten too much just a quarter turn if it will take it 🤞👍🏻
All sorted 👍 The problem was where the detergent end slots into the white electric box. The new part came with a rubber washer and a white stopper which the instructions indicated needed to be put on. I think the "old" white stopper was still in the hole ( i couldn't get it out and didn't want to yank it out!) so i just removed the new stopper, left the rubber washer on, put it back together and it works 😊
I put the head bolts in without the head, tightened then zip tied the head in place around the bolt posts, undid the bolts, refitted everything. I was worried about cracking the plastic head if the alignment wasnt spot on.
Hi there , just watch your video my friend went use my k4 today no pressure and water leaking from bottom, was it easy to take apart...what size of hex screwdriver is it...
Suspect I have just had the same issue with mine, after 18 months so out of warranty. Any thoughts about filling the metal clamp with epoxy to surround and reinforce the plastic part that split?
@@randomtherapy I found the crack, in the triangular section below where yours was, looks like it's a part where the plastic extrudes from the mould at one of the corners. New part ordered. £20 is cheaper than a whole new machine for certain, and much less wasteful. Thanks for the helpful guide so I knew what to expect 👍
Sorry to hear that. Personally I will never buy another karcher again. Bought the k4 thinking I was investing in good machinery. Then you find out they build parts out of plastic that breaks if you fart on them. Check my review on the green pressure washer I’ve replaced mine with. Still going strong and chuffed to bits with it for the cash. Cheers for the support and good luck on your next purchase 👍🏻
@@randomtherapy What green machine have you got now us Jocks know what I mean haven’t bought one yet because it’s going to rain for the next week cheers
@@randomtherapy ...I am of the same thoughts, i will never buy another Karcher product again..I have had a K2 and a K4, both suffered the same split in the same place..Their quality control appears to end at the completed product, with a "if it works, it works" sort of attitude, but the components that are used in the manufacture are just cheap and nasty, yet they have the gall to charge top money for any of their products...If you contact them to make them aware and make a complaint, they just try to palm you off with it being "frost damage", quoted me 110e for a replacement part plus postage..ironic really because where i live we do not get frosts. In a word and in my personal opinion, their products are shite!
My apologies rob. Will do an updated video after the new year as it’s not working again so will look into that very soon for you. Thanks for the support and feedback it’s very much appreciated mate 🥃🥃

@@randomtherapy Sorry. Don’t think I was very clear. The oil within the pump itself once you take the cylinder and pump head off. I’ve had a leak on it as I hadn’t closed it properly and oil/grease came out. It’s still got some in it but not near how much it initially had
I’ve got a leak issue with my k4 but I can’t figure it out. Is there any chance you can get in touch with me and I can send you my issue via email please? I’ve basically got a leak coming from under the metal cap that covers the control head and cylinder head - however both seem to have their structural integrity with no cracks so I’m stumped!
If its leaking at the same place as mine then it's a hairline crack that's hard to see. Sounds like you need to replace the part that fails for everyone
@@randomtherapy you’re right. After posting my initial comment I managed to finally find a hairline crack that luckily hit the light at a septic angle and was visible on the control head. Thanks for your reply and posting this video.
Your more than welcome mate. Just make sure you keep it indoors until the warmer temperatures kick in. The root cause is the water freezes and expands which cracks the block. 👍🏻
@@randomtherapy thanks mate. I don’t have anywhere to store it in my house during the freezing temps - basically in my shed. What else can I do to try to avoid this happening again?
Empty as much water as possible then cover with some kind of blanket. If the cold temperatures get to it the same thing will just happen again. I know it’s a pain but it is worth the effort. Also remove the lance and pipe over the winter period too 👌👍🏻🥃🥃
You will need to take the part out and check if it has any cracks . Looks like you might need to replace the part m8 if that's the case as they can't be resealed .
@@randomtherapy thanks sir for the very fast reaction !!! maybe look for the original o ring and yes gona take a closer look to part ( stupid plastic )m8

I had to replace the same part as you mentioned in this video yesterday cos it was leaking water in my K4 Full Control washer. It had a tear near the metal cover. What was your technique in getting the yellow cover back on? As it is a puzzle for me getting the power cable and detergent hose etc on without trying to break the plastic clips around it clipping it into the back cover.
Hi dave. If I remember I connected the detergent pipe first then put the power cable into the yellow front cover. The bottom clips were a pain to rematch but don't force them as they eventually go back in without breaking them . I am working on another karcher video as I might have repaired the broken part so I will do a full teardown and rebuild to help people . Remember to subscribe so you don't miss that video 👍😁
Mines has the same problem at same place used once put away went to use again it was leaking I thought it was caused by not emptying the machine fully before putting away as in water the pump would freeze thus causing the pump.to crack.thanks for good advice 👍
I think mine has the same issue, however I stripped it down and the control head looks ok, as in no obvious cracks, holes, etc... I've taken a short video. What do you think is the issue? Do you think it may be that bearings or seals have gone? ruclips.net/video/g03aPf2uZCs/видео.html
@@randomtherapy I replaced the control head and now when I turn it on it's no longer leaking. However, I can hear the motor running the whole time. As in it doesn't stop when I release the trigger. Pressure is poor too. Could just be something I've done wrong in putting it back together, but not sure. Any ideas?
@@randomtherapy by any chance do you know if the seals are glued in, or just sat in place? I'm conscious that if any have dropped out during my attempted repair, I'll struggle to find where they should go.

Useful warning to hopefully stop someone else doing this! I did this repair successfully and left the machine standing without the front cover on. WARNING - the unit it is front heavy!! The whole unit tipped over and the thin grey T shaped spindle (see it in the video sticking out) that is connected to the mains switch unit and fits into the front On/Off switch hit the floor and snapped off. You can't seem to get these as spares so I had to buy a complete mains switch / cable assembly for £38. I considered trying to repair but it is so thin and it snapped just at the point it enters the housing. (An expensive faux pas).Quite a few bad things about the design of this unit - the least of which is the plastic PRESSURE head. (On the other hand if this wasn't plastic then the the metal housing might crack instead which would be much more expensive to replace)
Nice tip John. Thanks 👍😉
Unfortunately this happened to me!
I've got K4 1.637-3110 but theres no external crack visible. It doesn't leak when the motor is off, weirdly. As soon as yoi turn it on... Spewing water where the white electrucal housing meets the pump head. Any advice would be very much appreciated 🙏🤗
@phoenixrisinguk the crack in the plastic is done you can’t see it. Mine was the same and it’s gone again so it’s now going in the red bin
@@phoenixrisinguk The one in this video had a 'massive hairline crack'. In my case it was invisible to the naked eye. Once the pump tries to build up pressure it forces water out of the crack - in my case a fine spray but enough to cause the 'hunting' and failure to build to full pressure. Pretty sure my issue was caused by not draining after use by running on with no water connected and it being stored in an unheated garage over winter. The freezing of the water then did the damage.
Thanks very much for the video. I’ve just had exactly the same leaking problem you describe: so I’ll follow you directions and strip it down and hopefully 🤞I can also fix the problem. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. All the best
Thanks for the kind words and support James. Take your time and also look at the other comments for a few tips. It’s easier than you think so go get it 👍😁
Thank you bud, very helpful I have the same issue and just ordered the new part. Hopefully, i don't lose a spring when reassembling.
Very helpful thanks!
Mines been leaking a while and I’ve been putting off opening it up and fixing it for a while.
Exact same issue and place.
Your more than welcome. Glad I was able to help.
Great helpful video. Thank you for taking the time to post this. You have a new subscriber. 👍👍
Thanks for the lovely comments and support Matthew. If there’s anything you can suggest to fix just give me a shout 👍🏻🥃🥃
Super. thank you so much you helped me fix my k4. greetings from Edinburgh.
Your more than welcome mate. Congratulations from Dundee. I’m only an hour up the road from you. Small world eh 👍🏻🥃🥃
When you shut down your pressure washer, turn off the water supply, and remove hose pipe, remove vario lance from trigger gun. Run machine for approx 10 seconds to pump out water. This will leave your machine frost protected during winter!!!
Great advice - thank you
I've just ordered the part as I've got a leak coming from the same place. Bloody frost! Fingers 🤞
Take your time and watch it doesn’t fall over and break the on off switch 👍🏻
Very helpful and informative video. I have a K4 with the exact same problem and this helped a lot. Time to order the part and give this a try 😬
Take your time Ross and read the comments before starting the job. It’s easy and you will get there. Thanks for the support and the lovely comments. Cheers mate 👍🏻🥃🥃
Cheers for the advice mate, mine has just started leaking and I’ll give it a bash and try and fix it myself
Take your time will and you’ll do fine. Remember it’s too heavy so read the comments regarding the front connector breaking if your not careful 👍🏻
Top not too 😂
Hi, video really good. Not too Technical and straight to the point. Easy to follow.
I have similar issue with my K4 Full Control pressure washer, but cannot find the replacement part (control head)
Would you be able to advise where I can buy one please?

Hi there thank you my dad's k4 Is leaking so I will have a look I'll strip the yellow boxing off and see where it's exactly coming from
Watched your video today, what a hoot, loved it. Have got same problem so will give it a go. Thanks for posting it. R U from Dundee?
I am that harry. What gave it away 🤔😂😂😂. If you need any help give me a shout bud 👍🏻
@@randomtherapy Eh don't know what gave it away. Eh must have noticed a wee Dundee quirk in your accent. 😁 Just a quick note to say fixed my Karcher leak. Turned out to be the top elbow joint. Fantastic local supplier in Inverurie got me the bit. Took a wee while to free it as the clamp was seized solid but my trusty mole grips sorted it (bought when I was about 18 for £2.99 - best buy ever).
Anyway, thanks again for your video, which gave me the info I needed and a great laugh at the same time. Have a great weekend, and take care.
Cheers, Harry (well, actually it's Alan - Harry's my crime thriller writer pseudonym)

Thanks joey. Still learning how to present, but being Scottish doesn’t help. Love it when people interact. Feel free to subscribe and give suggestions on what’s you would like to see more of on the channel. 👍
Thanks for a great video. I'm thinking of getting the K4, first ever pressure washer, but read lots of people moan about the water leaks. Your experience has shown me that if that happens then its a not a major problem and can be fixed quite easily by draining the unit before storing over the winter months should prevent this. My only other concern is most people complain about the pressure hose twisting up during use, what's your experience?
In all honesty it depends on what you will use it for. Mine has broken again and might try to fix it but in the meantime I'm just buying cheap stuff from amazon. Away to do a review very soon on my next purchase 👍
Hi thank you for your video , you have given me the inspiration to try and repair my K4 same problem .
Thanks lorna. Its an easy job but if you need help then just get in touch and ill talk you through it 👍🙂
That’s great fix going to do the same fix thanks for your video don’t need a new one now
Thanks Barry. Feel free to subscribe and suggest content for me to fix
Thanks just mended my sons k4 thanks to your video be lucky
Ahhh thanks for the kind words and taking time to comment. This has just made my day. Thank you 😊
ive done one of these before and i can see you are struggling by putting pressure onto the top end . you dont need to put any force on it as the bolts are long enough to screw in and all you need to do is make sure the switch box as you screw the pump bolts down goes straight into the side of the motor. also the other places the k4 leaks is the elbow on the backfoot and the high pressure pipe which fastens to the top of the pump but you can buy both these pipes in alloy and they never leak again
Thanks James. Your input is very much appreciated. I've seen the elbow replacement and thinking of doing that as an upgrade to lessen the chance of it breaking again . Please subscribe and keep the comments coming. Will be putting another karcher video up next week and will give you a mention in that . 👍😁
the high pressure pipes are plastic and moulded in 2 halves hence why they split and leak . the complete alloy elbow and backfoot is around £16 off ebay and the high pressure pipe which fastens to the top is approx £10
this was a great true informative video and if you take notice you will not go wrong and you will be able to repair yours and not skip it
That's my intention James. There very expensive and karcher have a large following. They should be making these with stronger parts . As you said you can buy them to fix it . Top man thanks again my friend 👍🥃🥃
Great video buddy. Whats the part number or description and where did you get it from?
Hi Pete. Found my new invoice as I’ve just bought another one. Google spares2you. And the part number is pressure washer control head 9.002-010.0
Regards
Ian 🎉
Exact same problem thank you very much for the help!
You done the work Matty. Give yourself a pat on the back. All did was make a useful video 😉👍🏻😂😂
Great video after watching I decided to tackle my K4 and found the same airline crack in the control head, unfortunately the retaining clip was badly coroded trying to remove it the motor act slipped out of my grip and some of the interior parts fell out I managed to locate the parts and work out where they had to go but I was left with one small blue plastic piece could not work out where it fits, any ideas.
Sorry David. But if you Google k4 parts you might get a schematic of all the parts to see 👍🏻
I enjoyed that I'll be having a go at mine noo, I especially liked the swearing as it was like watching and listening to masell lol take care mate.
Before you start doing it John read the comments about it tipping over and breaking the on off switch. Good luck and take your time with it m8 👍🏻🤞
@@randomtherapy yes I seen that comment, also the bits about maybe buying metal parts from ebay, I had a wee scan through your other videos and will catch some more soon I'm not into the 3D printing, but I'll watch anything that makes me smile, I'm Scottish as well living in central Scotland so it's great to be able to understand what someone's saying here lol 👍

Obviously this is a fault with the k4 same problem for me,
Edit: thanks man you gave me the confidence to operate on my marcher, wasn't the same issue in the end but sorted now back to 100%, the water inlet has two screws holding the to the frame, these popped on me, found after 10 mins inspection for hairline cracks 🤣
A lot of people are having the same issue Bren. Everyone can't be frost related 👍
Well done bren. Sorted it without my help . Glad to be of service my friend 👍😁🍻
@@randomtherapy watched your video first then went at it😁,
It’s not a filter, it’s a safety valve!!!
Cheers mate
I had the same problem and repaired it with the new part and no leak, but not its making a pulsating noise when I turn it on and has no pressure. Any ideas ??
Something is not sealed properly and letting out air or water ❤
I had previously fixed like this buddy. Now the pump constantly runs as soon as you turn it on but no getting pressure from the lance.
if the pump is constantly running then you have another leak my friend unfortunately .
@@randomtherapy hee haw coming out any where. Will strip down again and see if there is a seal no on right.

Many thanks.
Hi. This was the problem on my husbands pressure washer - ive replaced the part and no more leak 👍 However, im now having a problem with it maintaining maximum pressure - when operating if the hose is put to maximum pressure it works until the gun trigger is released, sounds like it's sucking air back. When the trigger is pulled again there is no pressure unless you turn the lance down to low output and then back up to maximum ( if that makes sense!). Any ideas why?
Sounds like a gasket is not seated right or tightened down enough and it’s still getting air in. You won’t need to tighten too much just a quarter turn if it will take it 🤞👍🏻
Fab thanks. I will give it a try 👍
@@debbiedyke7893 hope it solves it. Let me know how you get on please 👍🏻
All sorted 👍 The problem was where the detergent end slots into the white electric box. The new part came with a rubber washer and a white stopper which the instructions indicated needed to be put on. I think the "old" white stopper was still in the hole ( i couldn't get it out and didn't want to yank it out!) so i just removed the new stopper, left the rubber washer on, put it back together and it works 😊
@debbiedyke7893 well done 👍🏻 and thanks for the update 🥃🥃
putting it back together, i think ratchet straps would be the thing to use, thanks for video same problem .
I put the head bolts in without the head, tightened then zip tied the head in place around the bolt posts, undid the bolts, refitted everything. I was worried about cracking the plastic head if the alignment wasnt spot on.
As long as it works and sounds like a safer way too. Well done 👍🏻
Would have been good if you had shown how to turn the plastic nut to get the rear hose part out
I can only apologise for that. It’s broken again as that was two years ago so another video will be out soon 👍🏻
Really great video
thank you for your kind words and support. It’s much appreciated
Nice, well explained video,Thank you.........
Thanks for the kind words Steve. I have also made an attempt at repairing the broken bit so please subscribe so you don't miss that one 👍
Hi there , just watch your video my friend went use my k4 today no pressure and water leaking from bottom, was it easy to take apart...what size of hex screwdriver is it...
Hi James I'm not sure what size of torx head it is but it's not a big size. Just buy a cheap set and you will get the correct size 👍
Suspect I have just had the same issue with mine, after 18 months so out of warranty.
Any thoughts about filling the metal clamp with epoxy to surround and reinforce the plastic part that split?
If you watch episode two I tried to plastic weld mine but that failed too. Give it a go - you have nothing to lose Good luck 🤞
@@randomtherapy I found the crack, in the triangular section below where yours was, looks like it's a part where the plastic extrudes from the mould at one of the corners. New part ordered. £20 is cheaper than a whole new machine for certain, and much less wasteful. Thanks for the helpful guide so I knew what to expect 👍
@@amwphotos your more than welcome mate. Mine has just gone again unfortunately
@@randomtherapy ah dammit! That's not good. The number of people with this happening it's obviously poor component manufacturing

Didn’t work for me K4 chucked it in the skip spending no more money on the krap
Sorry to hear that. Personally I will never buy another karcher again. Bought the k4 thinking I was investing in good machinery. Then you find out they build parts out of plastic that breaks if you fart on them. Check my review on the green pressure washer I’ve replaced mine with. Still going strong and chuffed to bits with it for the cash. Cheers for the support and good luck on your next purchase 👍🏻

@@randomtherapy ...I am of the same thoughts, i will never buy another Karcher product again..I have had a K2 and a K4, both suffered the same split in the same place..Their quality control appears to end at the completed product, with a "if it works, it works" sort of attitude, but the components that are used in the manufacture are just cheap and nasty, yet they have the gall to charge top money for any of their products...If you contact them to make them aware and make a complaint, they just try to palm you off with it being "frost damage", quoted me 110e for a replacement part plus postage..ironic really because where i live we do not get frosts. In a word and in my personal opinion, their products are shite!

I have managed to take off the yellow face cover.. I believe I have the same leak. How do I change the rest of it I'm so confused 😕
Remove the black manifold and swap over some bits from your old part in to the new part. Tighten it all up and your good to go 👍take your time Don’t rush it and you will be just fine

Alright buddy... i was wondering if you knew which oils i can put in my K4 motor? had a bit of a leak on mine
It doesn’t need oils. The water keeps the pump cool 👍🏻
@@randomtherapy Sorry. Don’t think I was very clear. The oil within the pump itself once you take the cylinder and pump head off. I’ve had a leak on it as I hadn’t closed it properly and oil/grease came out. It’s still got some in it but not near how much it initially had
@@CaptainWotsit you got me there. Try the karcher website for any oil info and send them an email. Keep me posted on the reply please 🙏
@@randomtherapy alright buddy. The k4 takes 15/40 motor oil.
Thanks mate. I never knew that
I’ve got a leak issue with my k4 but I can’t figure it out. Is there any chance you can get in touch with me and I can send you my issue via email please?
I’ve basically got a leak coming from under the metal cap that covers the control head and cylinder head - however both seem to have their structural integrity with no cracks so I’m stumped!
If its leaking at the same place as mine then it's a hairline crack that's hard to see. Sounds like you need to replace the part that fails for everyone
@@randomtherapy you’re right. After posting my initial comment I managed to finally find a hairline crack that luckily hit the light at a septic angle and was visible on the control head. Thanks for your reply and posting this video.
Your more than welcome mate. Just make sure you keep it indoors until the warmer temperatures kick in. The root cause is the water freezes and expands which cracks the block. 👍🏻
@@randomtherapy thanks mate. I don’t have anywhere to store it in my house during the freezing temps - basically in my shed. What else can I do to try to avoid this happening again?
Empty as much water as possible then cover with some kind of blanket. If the cold temperatures get to it the same thing will just happen again. I know it’s a pain but it is worth the effort. Also remove the lance and pipe over the winter period too 👌👍🏻🥃🥃
Mine leaked not long after guarantee ended can they leak any where else?
I believe the bit where the water comes out of the machine has an upgrade part to stop this failure also. It’s not a karcher part though

I had to replace the same part as you mentioned in this video yesterday cos it was leaking water in my K4 Full Control washer. It had a tear near the metal cover.
What was your technique in getting the yellow cover back on? As it is a puzzle for me getting the power cable and detergent hose etc on without trying to break the plastic clips around it clipping it into the back cover.
Hi dave. If I remember I connected the detergent pipe first then put the power cable into the yellow front cover. The bottom clips were a pain to rematch but don't force them as they eventually go back in without breaking them .
