Thanks for the helpful video! This fix saved a few pounds of plastic from a landfill. I have a machine that hasn't worked for the last 4 years. I found your video today after considering purchasing a new unit. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge. You have definitely helped somebody out! Thank you.
It looks like you had to epoxy the impeller to the shaft. My impeller cracked at the hub. I 3D printed 10 new impellers out of PLA. Worked like a champ for me. Notice that one impeller slot is wider than the other 3. I will sell an impeller for 5 bucks. Beats 80 bucks for an Amazon replacement unit. These pumps are no longer manufactured nor available from Hoover... Great video. It got me rolling.
Great info. I followed your instructions and fixed the same problem. Thanks to you I didn't break anything during disassembly and didn't have parts left over! Many thanks!
This was absolutely the problem with my attachment. The piece inside broke and will need to be replaced before it's usable again. And I'm with Gluluman, seeing it come apart would have helped a lot, but I will not complain over-loudly. This video took strait to the problem...and I now know a whole lot more about steam-cleaners than I ever thought I would.
My sprayer isn't spraying. Thank you for the helpful video. I plan on doing this repair in the next couple days. I have a feeling it'll fix the problem since, like you, I already checked the easy stuff.
Thank you. It is so hard to find diy on this hoover. By any chance do you have a diy on why not it's not sucking very well ? Maybe due to being plugged?
Very helpful video. I have the same problem & will need to do this if a clogged spray nozzle isn't the cause. Can you please let me know if this did, in fact, resolve your issue? Thanks Denise
Great video but you actually can remove that pump without taking all the rest of that off you just need a long screwdriver or screwdriver bit remove that one screw and wiggle it out
The pump is only for the upholstery accessory. If you haven't tried it yet, you can release the cleaning solution onto your carpet without the cleaner being on, or even plugged in. It feeds the solution to the bottom of the carpet cleaner via gravity, no pump needed. That is why everything else was working fine, except the upholsery nozzle. This feature is great for pre-treating the carpet and letting the cleaning solution soak in for a while, without having to plug in and power up the carpet cleaner.
It would be nice to have started by removing the cover and given a step-by-step detail on how to. Rather than state just remove the two screws - in that how do you remove the cover. Just remove two strews in rather incongruent explanation. Nonetheless thanks
Sorry that you had a problem figuring it out. ...I had already totally torn it down before I decided to make the video. ..I tried to explain the best I could. ... If your not mechanically inclined enough to figure out how to get to the bad part, then maybe it's best you send it to the repair shop. I'm not a master at making documentarys....I took the time to figure out the problem and tried helping others.... Sorry it wasn't up to your standards!
Thanks for the helpful video!

This did in fact fix my problem. .... it sprays like new again!
Thank you for posting this. Mine has the same issue and most likely it's in the pump after checking all the lines for blockage.
Update: The issue turned out to be a blown T3.15a fuse located in the handle assembly. It governs the solenoid that opens the upholstery sprayer.

I also agree, but the thought to make the video came after I already had it apart...LOL...maybe next time!
Wonderful walk through on the attachment sprayer pump
Thanks much. I have the same problem and this will be a great help with disassembly.
Excellent, concise, detailed description, nice video!!
Thanks for the video...I ended up replacing the pump (it was rust-frozen) but your video certainly helped me diagnose the problem!
Your welcome....glad it helped!!
Thank you sir, you saved me an expensive repair. Cheers
MrRunnings awesome! happy it worked out for you!

Thank you so much I really needed the lesson.
My sprayer seems to work fine, but the reservoir seems to be leaking quickly out the little sq. hole by the brushes. Any ideas there?
Same as everyone else - thanks a million!
Adrian P Great News!
Great tip THANKS, fixed my problem terrific video.
Outstanding! Exactly the problem with mine as well! Thanks much for your video help!

+Felipe Conill thanks for the comment....im glad the video helped fix your problem!
Thank you. It is so hard to find diy on this hoover. By any chance do you have a diy on why not it's not sucking very well ? Maybe due to being plugged?
Helped a lot thank you
Thank you for the video. I had the same exact problem and was able to fix it the same way you did.
Luis Tirado glad this helped you out!
how do i get the lil blk nozel that releases water and solution out
I fix the spinning but water was not spraying from the hand scrub. Any suggestion. Thank you.
Very helpful video. I have the same problem & will need to do this if a clogged spray nozzle isn't the cause. Can you please let me know if this did, in fact, resolve your issue? Thanks Denise
Yes it did, and with flushing it out well after every use, it has continued to work trouble free ever since!
Great video but you actually can remove that pump without taking all the rest of that off you just need a long screwdriver or screwdriver bit remove that one screw and wiggle it out
Thanks! That's a great help.
Thanks very helpful.
hmmm. project for tomorrow. thanks
Very smart man

Thanks, and your right one thing I did learn is to make sure you flush all the old soap out with warm water after every use!
Crap. Don't have a gent to outsource this task to, but I'm sure this is what I need to do. I'm sure I'll need an adult beverage after...
Laura Sullivan heck... make it interesting and have a couple before, during AND after...lol.... good luck!
Thank you!!
I am so close! I just can’t get the cover off!
Evan Carr how do I get off the lever that controls the rotating brush speed?
Evan Carr well, that didn’t go as planned. Oh broke off. But I can still move the lever with the broken stub.
Well, it’s toast. Some other plastic piece and a spring broke off and I am now out of my depth. Oh well. It got many good years of use out of it.
my sprayer solution spray everywhere. Is it supposed too
It's supposed to kinda "Fan Out" from the nozzle, what do you mean by "it sprays everywhere"?
@@0Gravity1966 IT DOESN'T JUST FAN OUT IT GOES OUT REALLY FAR. I WONDERED IF THERE WAS SOMETHING I HAD SOMETHING HOOKED UP WRONG
It would be nice to have started by removing the cover and given a step-by-step detail on how
to. Rather than state just remove the two
screws - in that how do you remove the cover. Just remove two strews in rather incongruent explanation.
