  If your Bissell Vacuum Cleaner isn't picking up the cleaning solution, there are several potential causes. First, check that the collection tank is correctly aligned and secured with the side latches. Also, ensure the collection tank isn't full and empty it if necessary. Another cause might be that the removable nozzle is installed improperly or is full of debris; in this case, unplug the unit, align the four 'hooks' into the bottom first, then snap into place on top, or remove the nozzle and rinse it under running water. Additionally, a clogged red lint screen under the collection tank could be the issue; remove any debris from the lint screen. Lastly, make sure the ReadyTools dial is set to either 'FLOOR CLEANING' or 'TOOLS' for your desired cleaning method.

Why does my Bissell PET 3 have reduced or no spray from the attachment?

  Several factors can cause reduced or no spray from the attachment on your Bissell Vacuum Cleaner. First, ensure the solution tank is filled with water and formula. If the tank is full, the spray nozzle might be clogged, so clean it by rinsing the tool under water. Another reason could be that the pump needs priming; place the tool on the floor and press the spray trigger. Also, make sure the machine is in the full upright position until it locks into place. Finally, check that the ReadyTools dial is set to the “TOOLS” setting and not “FLOOR CLEANING”.

  If your Bissell Vacuum Cleaner has reduced or no spray in upright mode, start by refilling the solution tank with water and formula. Also, the lint screen on the solution tank cap might be clogged; soak the solution tank cap in warm water and then rinse it under running water. Finally, ensure the upper body is properly attached.

  If the brush on your Bissell Vacuum Cleaner isn't turning, it might be because the handle isn't reclined. Press the red recline lever on the back of the unit to activate the brush.
