Hi. Just a comment for reference. At 6.20 in you refer to seals - they are in fact spacers and underneath there are seals through which the pistons travel. I’ve just taken mine apart as I think it is those seals that are my problem - not exactly sure as yet. I have pressure with the machine but not enough - and I have no other leaks.

Hi, you may be correct with the seals. I didn't want to pull mine apart as it doesn't leak and didn't want to mess it up .-. - i think i meant the spacers are like a headgasket, when thinking about it like a combustion-engine, thought they might have double duty. I'm gonna link an update if i ever get to it...

Really useful video. Mine had all the cleaner solution pipes blocked up and I had trouble removing the cover - after watching your video it all made sense - why put the screws behind the wheels beats me. Pipes now cleaned and reassembled.

Hi. Just a comment for reference. At 6.20 in you refer to seals which are in fact spacers. Under the spacers are rubber seals. I have just taken mine apart and I believe that these seals are my problem. Always good to see videos like yours.

I just fixed mine earlier today. It wouldn't switch on. Inside that red switch there are two more springs placed on the contacts, I found one has come off and fixed. I suggest you get yourself a multimeter so that you don't go live to test. Great video by the way 👍

The white electrical connect part from the base can be pulled out and held with nose pliers to get a good connection.

Thanks, great video and hats off to you for the spare part follow up. My Karcher switch is not turning the unit off anymore, but otherwise works. I reckon that's the better problem to have and I don't fancy taking the motor apart to get into the switch - though I guess I could if the switch stops delivering power altogether.

Thanks! Yea why bother fixing as long as it does it's job and the pressure shut off works.

You can get a replacement switch from cpc Farnell SW04818. Need to remove some plastic webbing but otherwise a direct replacement.
