Why won't my PowerWasher H1700 start?
- AAndrew BrownAug 14, 2025
If your PowerWasher Pressure Washer unit won't start even when the trigger is depressed, there are several potential causes. First, ensure the unit is turned on by pressing the ON/OFF switch to the ON position. Check for a loose or disconnected plug and reconnect it if necessary. The GFCI plug might be defective; try the reset procedure. If it still doesn't reset, it may need replacement. An incorrect extension cord length or gauge could also be the problem, so ensure you're using the proper cord. Also, the gun trigger or the ON/OFF switch may be defective. Finally, the pressure washer thermal switch may be tripped; allow the unit to cool before restarting.
