Why is my Kärcher G 3200 OC Pressure Washer not reaching high pressure?
- K
  keitholsenJul 29, 2025
  Several factors can prevent your Kärcher Pressure Washer from reaching high pressure. The diameter of your garden hose might be too small; replace it with a 5/8 inch or larger hose. Your water supply could be restricted, so check the garden hose for kinks, leaks, or blockages. Ensure you have enough inlet water supply by turning the water on full force and again checking for hose issues. Also, a clogged water inlet filter can be the culprit; remove it and rinse in warm water. Finally, make sure you have the high-pressure nozzle attached instead of the black detergent nozzle.

What to do if Kärcher G 3200 OC Pressure Washer output pressure varies?

  Sandra SchneiderAug 3, 2025
  If the output pressure of your Kärcher Pressure Washer is fluctuating, it could be due to several reasons. Ensure you have enough inlet water supply by turning the water on full force and checking the garden hose for any kinks, leaks, or blockages. The pump might be sucking air; check that all hoses and fittings are airtight, then turn off the machine and purge the pump by squeezing the trigger gun until a steady flow of water emerges through the nozzle. Also, a clogged water inlet filter or obstructed spray nozzle can cause pressure variations; remove the filter and rinse in warm water, and blow out the spray nozzle or remove debris with a fine needle. Finally, if the gun, hose, or spray wand is calcified, run distilled vinegar through the detergent suction tube.

Why is my Kärcher Pressure Washer not dispensing detergent?
- D

  If your Kärcher Pressure Washer isn't dispensing detergent, start by checking that the detergent suction tube is properly connected to the machine. If it is, the detergent might be too thick; dilute it, and for best results, use Kärcher detergent. Also, the filter on the detergent suction tube could be clogged; run warm water through it to remove any debris. Check for any damage to the detergent suction tube, remove any obstruction, or replace it if necessary. Ensure that you have the black detergent nozzle attached and not a high-pressure nozzle. Lastly, make sure the spray nozzle isn't obstructed; blow it out or remove debris with a fine needle.

  If the garden hose connection on your Kärcher Pressure Washer is leaking, first check for loose fittings and tighten them. If the leak persists, inspect the rubber washer; it may be missing or worn, and you'll need to insert a new one.

Why is water leaking from the pump of my Kärcher G 3200 OC?

  Kimberly JacksonAug 18, 2025
  If water is leaking from the pump of your Kärcher Pressure Washer (more than 10 drops per minute), you should check the fittings to ensure they are not loose. Also, the thermal protection device might be activated; this device will auto-reset, but avoid running the pump for more than 5 minutes without spraying.
