If your Karcher pressure washer leaks water from the bottom, it might be because of damage in the thermal release valve due to overheating. This valve maintains water temperature by recirculating water and releasing excessively hot water. Also, detach the chemical injection tube, the metal clamping plate, and the switch assembly to free the pump from the loosened piston assembly. You can pull apart the manifold and the lower part of the pump. If your pressure washer has an undamaged pump and inlet/outlet seals, the piston seals might be damaged. Karcher pressure washers have a positive displacement pump with pistons to pressure and draw the incoming water supply and force it out through the cleaning nozzle.But if the machine is out of warranty and you want to fix it yourself, below are the problems that might develop – and the ways to handle them – 1. Leakage from Inlet Hose Connection While getting your washer’s pump repaired by an expert may sometimes fix the problem, you’ll need to replace the pump if it is old, seriously worn out, and damaged. If that’s not the case, disassembling and reassembling the pump may sometimes fix the problem.

If you find your Karcher pressure washer leaking, it’s usually because some part of the device is worn out or loose. You may choose to repair the part, but in most cases, changing it is a better option to breathe new life into your pressure washer. FAQ a) Why is your Karcher pressure washer leaking oil?The process of dismantling and reassembling the pump has been clearly explained in this video. If you know your way around appliances and tools, you may not need an electrician to do this. 4. Leakage from Piston Seals in Undamaged Pump

Oil seals are present on the piston slot holding the pump of your pressure washer. Water leakage into oil results from damage in one or more of the oil seals or rings. How to Fix – To replace your pump, simply remove the pump from the engine by removing the fasteners – and you may also have to remove a clamp that holds the pump in place in some models. Then, cut off the detergent hose from the old pump. To fix the water leakage problem in your Karcher pressure washer, you must identify what might trigger the issue. You won’t have much trouble handling the replacement process on your own, especially with all the videos and guidelines available online. The labelling on the lance (3 - Hard, 2 - Medium, 1 - Soft and Mix - for detergent application) relate to use with a Karcher G145 Q Power Control Gun as the gun will display the pressure setting in relation to the labelling. Slide and pull out the inlet cover with the inlet seals to find the red inlet valve in the slot. You can remove this inlet valve with the help of tweezers – and place a new valve there before reassembling the cover and the machine.The pump and switch assembly are clamped to the motor assembly with screws that need to be undone. You will then have to remove the inlet and outlet, held in place with metal forks. The process of dismantling and reassembling the pump is slightly more complex. After removing the outer casing and the clamp described above, you must pull out the pump and detach the detergent hose. The outlet seal is at the connection between the pump and the high-pressure washer hose that pushes water to the trigger wand. This point of attachment is similar to that of the inlet connection in structure, complete with couplings and outlet seals. You may notice the engine oil looking milky. This is likely because water has been leaking into the oil from the oil seal.
