  If your Bissell Steam Cleaner isn't picking up dirt, there might be a few reasons: * There could be a clog in the vacuum. To resolve this, remove the main hose and use a broomstick to clear it. Also, remove the bottom brush cover to clear any debris from the brush, belt, and foot area. Additionally, remove the lower hose and use a broomstick to clear any clogs. * The filters might be dirty. Remove and rinse the pre-motor filters, allowing them to dry completely before reinserting. Remove and dust off the post-motor filter. * The suction control settings might be incorrect. Adjust the suction control feature to the correct setting.

  Jessica WestAug 16, 2025
  If the brush roll on your Bissell Steam Cleaner isn't rotating and the LED headlights are flashing, it could be due to a couple of reasons: * The brush roll may have debris or other entanglements preventing it from rotating. To fix this, remove the bottom brush cover and clear any debris from the brush, belt, and foot area. To reset the brush motor, unplug the machine before turning it back on. * Prolonged use on super plush carpet may have overloaded the brush motor. In this case, turn off and unplug the vacuum for 1 hour.
