Only thing I would really recommend is trashing the POS (gold colored) thermal relief valve, and buying a proper one. This gold colored one is made of some tinny type of aluminum or something like that, and can blow apart. Mine blew apart second time I used the pressure washer (the head got clean blown off). Get a CAT thermal relief, or any number of other proper brass units on the market. Just make sure the temp rating is similar at 140-145 F.
This was super helpful. Thank you very much! I took mine apart like you said and the Pistons move fine. I sprayed it with WD-40 bolted everything back on started it up but no water pressure. I had already ordered the replacement part then after an hour, I decided to try it one last time, and it started right up and with normal pressure.
Bought this thing a year ago… can’t believe I’m already dealing with this!! Of course the engine is bulletproof but wish they didn’t attach a POS pump.
Same bruh. Crazy thing is I used mine about a month ago, no issues but then go to use it today and WTF no pressure? It seems likeit has to be something more simple than this repair. If not, Imma gonna be pissed.
Same thing happened to me only a year after I bought and only I used for no more then 50 hours. 🤬 Honda Engine is going to last forever but the pump is trash.
I’ve seen the key missing on quite a few of these, right from the factory. If it’s brand new and you have no pressure, take pump off and check the key.
I have a 530010 AAA pump that is shooting water out between the brass head and block plus water in the oil. I shut it off as soon as I discovered it. It was still making good pressure. Just seals or something more serious? I bought a new pump for $368 but am interested in repairing the leaking one as a spare if it's cost effective. Advice?
I have a practically brand new 3700 it will build pressure, but looses after two seconds and stays out unless I let off the trigger and let it build back. Could this be my issue. It's only been uses twice
Hey man. I have the PS3228 and it stopped providing pressure after the second time using it. You think this could be the issue? Same AAA pump. Apparently they’re garbage. No soap or anything ran through it.

I have a Simpson pump with the GX200 and a AAA pump and mine died after probably 10 hours. Zero pressure. I took it apart and o don’t see any bad seals so I’m not sure if mine is a bad unloaded or what’s going on.
I have a 3200 psi i am getting water to the pump but the pump is not pushing it through the pressure hose.i brought it brand-new and only used it twice
Great video very straight forward thank you, I have very little pressure and the power washer pump oil is very milky in appearance, if I change the manifold like the video do you think this would fix the problem?
Is it normal for AAA 3800/3.5 to drop a few drops between a manifold and the crankcase? Just replaced all the seals an noticed a few drops from the bottom.
Have that exact unit, I cannot get suction through the tube that comes with it, for detergents. I inserted a wire and feel the spring inside...what's the trick please ?
Try removing the gun and hose from pump and see if it pulls soap if it does then problem is with gun most likely. They need a certain amount of restriction to work properly and the only works with the blue or black soap tips.
On the off chance you see this could I get some advice? Mine had a loss of pressure so I took the pump off and springs and small metal disc's fell out. What caused the failure? And it looked like it had plastic crushed inside of the bores
Most likely got foreign debris passed through the system. Is the water inlet screen in place its probably missing I bet. Always turn water on and flush hose before attaching the hose to the pump just incase dirt,rocks,bugs get in.
I was looking at replacement manifolds. Are they really about 250 dollars? Is it possible to just replace a seal if it’s worn out to save all that money? Thanks for your time!
We're having trouble, we took everything apart. One of the ceramics was cracked which we replaced and we don't see any other issues. We put it all back together but water is still leaking out of the bottom middle piston area and it seems like we're getting water into our oil. Pressure is very low compared to normal. Any suggestions?
I wonder if this manifold will work on a Simpson Model# PS60995-S? What i see here in this video literally looks identical to the one that is on my machine except mine is black like the rest of the pump instead of that brass color.
i have dewalt 4000 psi model 4035 with AAA pump...unit starts fine first pull...blast of pressure then low pressure...cut unit off then it is almost impossible to start again even while squeezing trigger...any suggestions?
Thank you all for the channel support 🙏 stay tuned for more helpful videos don't forget to subscribe 👍
Technician do repair; mechanic do replacement. If one seal bad, just change the seal, why change the complete manifold? Money wasted.
Screw that dude, get a goddamn external.Bypass on loader valve and stop putting chemical on your goddamn machine like an idiot

Those replacement manifolds are over $200. It seems like replacing seals and valves is a better option.

They’re cheaper for a reason. Cat pump is couple hundred more for a reason
Wow, that’s a $200 kit. Were the seals the problem on this machine or was the manifold damaged?

Great video, I have a 4gpm simpson 4000psi with the triple A pump. It stop making pressure and I will give this repair a try
Good luck!
did you fix it?
Does anyone know where you can find the boost valve that's on the bottom valve on the end of the new manifold?
Manifold $219. Whole pump with manifold $249.
Hey man. I have the PS3228 and it stopped providing pressure after the second time using it.
You think this could be the issue? Same AAA pump. Apparently they’re garbage. No soap or anything ran through it.
my triple A pump is over pressuring. When I start the spray it seems to overload the engine and boggs down. Any suggestions
How about a video on adjusting the pump pressure and unloaded, on mine I can adjust the pressure by turning the black knob but how about the unloaded?
Everywhere I look you have to buy the whole pump. Looking for just the manifold for a 7112736. 3.5 GPM at 3600 psi.
Good video. The pressure manifold cost about $250. You can buy the seals for around $70
Awesome

Do you know what size the 3 on top of the manifold are?
Where do you get your manifolds from? I need a 7112736. 3600 at 3.5 GPM
I have a 3200 psi i am getting water to the pump but the pump is not pushing it through the pressure hose.i brought it brand-new and only used it twice
You can use a 10mm allen on the hose connecter.
How about the three on top?
Great info thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Great video very straight forward thank you, I have very little pressure and the power washer pump oil is very milky in appearance, if I change the manifold like the video do you think this would fix the problem?
Change the manifold AND the oil. 30 weight from memory.
Is it normal for AAA 3800/3.5 to drop a few drops between a manifold and the crankcase? Just replaced all the seals an noticed a few drops from the bottom.
Could I upgrade my 2.5gpm pump on the Honda 3700psi and if so what would be a good upgrade?

Do you recommend just changing the seals or is it really hard
Do you have a link to this kit?? So glad I found this video but the ones I’m seeing on Amazon are barely cheaper than replacing the entire pump.
They are expensive
You are an awesome man thank you sir
Happy to help
Thanks 4 the video
No problem
Replaced this twice!!!!
@Winder Outdoor Power Where do I buy a seal kit???
I have the exact same unit and it makes a burst of pressure and then no pressure at all. Any way to fix without buying a new head?
Replace the seals. Around $70.

What’s the part number replaced?
On the off chance you see this could I get some advice? Mine had a loss of pressure so I took the pump off and springs and small metal disc's fell out. What caused the failure? And it looked like it had plastic crushed inside of the bores
Most likely got foreign debris passed through the system. Is the water inlet screen in place its probably missing I bet. Always turn water on and flush hose before attaching the hose to the pump just incase dirt,rocks,bugs get in.
Ah ok many thanks new pump it is then thanks so much

They are expensive they can be rebuilt in most cases but it's a toss up.

I’m getting water in my pump. Window showing oil turning milky. I change well before it needs it. Any idea where it could be failing???
The seals in pump is worn.

Sounds like may need the carburetor cleaned. But if the pressure is down may also have a bad pump.
Are you located in Winder, Georgia?
Yes
A complete new pump its $260 and the manifold its $229 why?
🤦♂️
Because they want you replace all the unit instead just have of it 😈😈
Are you in Winder, GA? Also what is the long black knob on the pump. My Simpson has no instructions of any kind about the pump.
Yes we are. That would be the pressure adjustment knob.
Where did u buy the o rings ?
I'm a dealer
99% of the time you replace the manifolds?
For warranty yes
Hey where do you buy this kit I need one
Local dealers
Can anyone tell me where did they purchase the manifold kit. It seems like I cannot find this kit.
Can I add a 4000 pressure gauge to the ports on top of the valve body?
