o.k i called campell hausfield technical support and told them in worked fine one day and the next it just would not turn on.. this is what the tech lady told me exactly word for word to do to fix it.. she almost gaurenteed me it will work,,

o.k sir first you need to dissconnect both hose'* meaning garden hose and the gun hose from the pressire washer.
o.k sir then second what you want to do is get a good strong plastic bag and 2 rubberbands and put the bags over the nozzle on the unit where the gun hose goes and then secure it with the rubberbands..
o.k sir then third turn the unit upside down and poor a bottle of white vinegar into the nozzle on the pressure washer where the garden hose goes and then let it sit upside down over night.
o.k sir then next you wait untill the next day and then pour a cup of wesson (cooking oil) into the connection on the unit where you poured the white vinegar the night before and besure to let it sit for another 20 minutes and then connect the garden hose and turn it right side up the normal way again and take off the plastic bag and rubber bands from the other nozze that i sealed and just plug it in and turn on the hose to clean out all the stuff i poured in and it should be fine..


o.k sir then that should work right away and turn back on..
and if that dont work then just call me back and ask for brenda and i will locate you a good refurbished pressure washer with a warranty for half the price of a new one..



o.k now im baffled.. i feel like it was a conversation with the jerky boys

but i guess i will go buy some white vinegar and give it a try

It sounds like they think the pump mechanism is gummed up.
Vinegar as an acid and cleaning fluid; the oil as a lube.
