- Learn how to fix the Rug Doctor deep carpet cleaner pump after it has been removed from the machine. See other videos on how to remove the pump. I had a stuck solenoid due to corrosion. Just needed some cleaning and light sanding.
My Rug Doctor pump was not exactly like this as only one end unscrewed, but close enough. I removed the pump, unscrewed the end, took out the parts, made sure all valves moved freely, reassembled the pump installed, works perfect. Thanks for the video.
glad it helped
Good job, saved me $90. Knocked mine out with a socket. Used 600 grit rolled up in a tube to clean the inside
Great video Randy. My pump was stuck tight. A lot of cleaning but, pump now works like a champ. Thanks for giving me the confidence to take it apart.
THANK YOU!!! I was about to sell mine for parts, then came across your video, and now it works perfectly!!
You are welcome
I used a tooth brush and Bon Ami to scrub the inside of the tube. I use a fine plastic dish scrubber on a sponge with Bon Ami on the outside sleeve. I then soaked the plunger in cleaning vinegar. Just an update, I used my machine tonight and all worked great. I used to have a leak when I parked it to move furniture, it doesn't leak anymore either. Pump works fine. I tested my pump before I reinstalled it. I put insulated alligator clips on the 120 volt motor leads which are on a small power cord I made up, I hooked up a hose and held it under the faucet and let cold water run by gravity into the pump. I turned on the pump with my extension cord and it worked great!
Thanks for posting this. Mine wasn’t all that bad but after cleaning it up, it worked again.
You're welcome!
This video is very helpful. The exact part is not available in the market and it saved dollars. Thank You.
Thank you for this. I cleaned up the other version of the unit and Viola!!
Thanks for the video. I fixed the pump with your guidance. I have to admit I had more problem getting the final top cover on navigating over the wires and the vertical switch which is the the way.
Had same problem with switch so, used a rotary tool and sanding drum to remove some plastic on bottom of hole in cover to allow easier slide-over.
Now to find out if this video just saved my buns... I'm gonna take my classic Wide Track apart and see if this is not my problem before I start spending money. I would be so relieved, and so would me son.
Hopefully this works if it does you saved me $500. I have the whole thing apart and I am alomst to the pump.
Thanks for your video. Done very professionally and informative. Now I need to figure our how to get to the pump. This Rug Doctor is a real piece of junk. We should have bought the real deal.
There is a video on disassembly entitled "DDC pump" that shows how to get to the pump.That one was uploaded by Rug Doctor. I had a Bissell prior to the Rug Doctor and gave it to Goodwill because the pump stopped spraying. Since this seems to be how these things fail, I suspect you could fix any upright carpet cleaner using the same method.
Thank you for posting this helped me out !
Glad it helped!
Nice job thanks
Thank you too!
for lubrication, I highly suggest using silicone grease. Very few solvents are able to remove silicone grease. I learned this the hard way, but never let that grease anywhere near a HVLP or LVLP sprayer!!!
Excellent vid! I have a question about the cylinder - I have the Jiayin pump which is minimally different. I think it was a replacement for the one you have or vice versa. My question is - should the copper cylinder come out? Mine does not seem to want to. The 2 sleeve halves and plastic ring turn but not very freely. Is this an issue as long as the piston moves freely within the cylinder?
To be honest I don't really know. I generally take broken things apart and try and figure out how that work and try and fix them. That was the case with this pump. So Here is my best guess. I think the plunger, spring and check valve are the working parts that need to move freely (BTW- I would like to reserve the right to be completely wrong). I believe that the sleeves and plastic washer may help with vibration damping. Again just a guess. Best of luck - let me know if you get it working.
Hi Randy I have a pump that look likes that one but when I open it it is very different. Since everything fell on the ground when I open it I don’t know how to put it back together the right way. Any suggestions?
ok i see that you put that it didnt work till you polished the piston but my question is is there a way to put power to it while you have it out to see if it actually works or not
I didn't try to power it up without reassembling. I just figured I would keep working on it til I got it to work however long it takes.
How do u find and install??? Love the quick fox tbough 😊$$$

The rolls Royce of carpet cleaners but when they break - problems! Can’t find anyone to work on them !
