Hi, was wondering if you can help, I changed the oil after putting it back together switching it on, there was a burning smell?? Opened to check there’s a slight oil leak and I can see oil around the copper wire, could this be the issue or the carbon brushes need changing??
I wouldn't say its carbon brushes issue because carbon brushes don't have oil in them. If oil is leaking from somewhere then that is cause of smell. Probably oil leaked on the copper wire is giving out smell when copper wires are getting hot.
@@kaifaaa machine still works with smell? Or it stopped working? I would say just clean with any cloth as much as possible. Dont use wet cloth. It might cause issues. But make sure oil leak is fixed and not leaking anymore.
One of my friends had a copper strand broken and surprisingly he fixed it with soldering and just wrapping heat shrink sleeve around it. Lol and amazingly that pressure washer is still going strong after 2 years. Thank you for comment and sub will be really helpful.

Hi, thank you for your reply. What would be the best way to clean out the oil that’s leaked into the copper wiring section? Is it ruined now? 😖

How can i buy the carbon brush .whats its name of the brush bro ..
I would be very surprised if the copper winding was broken and even more surprised if soldering would fix the fault.

@@theyoutube85 how on earth did he break it?
I have no idea but there was only one strand on the top that was broken.
I turned on my karcher k3 it made a light and smell of burning. Not turning on after this. Is this something to do with the motor? Thank you
