What to do if my Kärcher Pressure Washer has no detergent?
If your pressure washer isn't dispensing detergent, start by checking the detergent siphon tube connection to ensure it's properly connected. If connected, the detergent might be too thick; dilute it, or use Kärcher detergent for best results. Also, check if the filter on the detergent siphon tube is clogged and rinse it with warm water to remove debris. A damaged or clogged detergent siphon tube may also be the culprit, so remove any obstruction or replace the tube. Finally, make sure the spray wand is in the low pressure position and that the discharge nozzle is not obstructed; clear any debris with a fine needle.
