    I have owned a Bissell BG10 for 5 years and it's been the best rug cleaner that I've ever used.
    I rented every type of rug scrubber in the past and NONE compare to the BG10.
    After 5 years of hard use a valve needed replaced, the factory representative explained my problem, sent me the valve at a fair price.
    The repair video explained in great detail how to change the valve. One hour later my scrubber is ready for many more dirty carpets.
    Thank you Bissell for a Quality 5 Star Product and a Great Support Team.
    P. S. I've purchased a second BG10 because my work is expanding.

    The only issue I ran into was when I put the pump back in, it was rotated 90 degrees and the saddles would not go back on. That, and Lowe's and two auto parts stores didn't have those pinch clamps to go over the surgical hose.

    This is a most wonderful video. So detailed and doable. I shampooed my carpet and 6 months later pulled out the machine to do it again, and there is no water flow. I turned the machine on and put an object in the hose attachment water valve and no spray out at all. Not even a bubble. The red spray trigger on the handle...nothing. I was going to replace both the pump and solenoid but I am thinking that maybe only the pump is bad. Is there a way to tell which one is bad? The flow device does not turn either. It was replaced two years ago when water started squirting out the top of it.

    Great detailed videos however; I still have the problem with my BG10 Machine. The foot motor works and makes the role spin, water is dispensed (sprayed) correctly and flow indicator moves (spins), I cleaned all debris, I checked for suctioning on top of the dirty water tank, the motor duct and also inspected the float & baffle for any damage, changed the pump, the solenoid and still no suction. Any help will be greatly appreciated as I worry that my wife may be thinking that I am making all this up to avoid cleaning the carpet.

    Nice video! My Big Green is leaking water from the front sprayer (red nozzle underneath). It just leaks water from the moment it is powered on. I tried testing the trigger on the handle, and it works as it's supposed to. It also seems like it isn't cleaning as good, but this may be due to the excess water it is spitting out. Any ideas for what to fix? I can't find anything online.

    • @bissellcommercialcustomers4100
      @bissellcommercialcustomers4100  Před 3 lety +1

      Cody, Thank you for the detailed information! For the leaky spray nozzle, remove solution tank from unit and fill halfway with water. Hold the tank over your sink and see if the problem might actually be the cap on the tank. If it is not the tank cap, more than likely you have a solenoid valve that is stuck in the open position and may need to be replaced. As far as the decline in quality of cleaning, more detailed info may be needed but you will want to clean out the brush carriage area (drop the brush carriage and clean out the entire area behind the brush as the dirt or nastiness will deposit back onto the carpet if it is not cleaned off). If it is not sucking the solution and dirt up off of the carpet as well as it used to, you will want to follow along with my "BG10 checking for no suction causes" video as the issue may be in the nozzle assembly. You can call us at 800-242-1378 and ask for Customer Service if further assistance or parts are needed. I hope this helps!

Having had previous Bissell vacuums (and fixing a variety of issues on them) the tank cap was one of the first things I checked. I think you nailed it on suspecting the solenoid valve.

    • @bissellcommercialcustomers4100

      Jeremiah, The fact that the hose/tool combo is working fine is the perfect indicator that the issue is going to be found below that are of the unit. So, as long as you have removed the spray nozzle to check for blockages, yes it will probably end up being your solenoid valve.

    Instead of using a knife on those tie wraps, a pair of communications scissors works so much better with no risk of cutting the tubes or yourself. These scissors are made for cutting things like tie wraps, CAT5, CAT6 and CAT7 data cables, so they can easily cut tie wraps without damaging the scissors. Using normal scissors will just ruin the scissors. The scissors I have are about 25 years old, so they hold up well. Great video otherwise. I'd like to have seen some troubleshooting steps to know which to replace, the pump or the solenoid.

    Hello, my unit as soon as it is powered on sprays water continuously without pulling the trigger. What could this be ? Everything else works just fine. It sucks up the water no problem. Just cannot control the water coming out.

    • @bissellcommercialcustomers4100
      @bissellcommercialcustomers4100  Před 2 lety

      Hartley, This is a classic symptom of a frozen solenoid valve. It may have had time to effect the flow indicator as well but that solenoid valve is more than likely seized in an open position. Change that bad boy out, test the unit, and then you will be able to tell if the flow indicator has been compromised as well. Call us if you need assistance: 800-242-1378 ext 2180.

      @bissellcommercialcustomers4100  Před 2 lety +1

      Renardo, If you tested the pump pressure in the manner that you have described without any spray, the pump (even new) may be bad. It may also be installed incorrectly. You may want to double-check the installation. Once you have done that, if it is still not producing a 6 to 8 inch stream upon testing the flow indicator the way you described, it is a bad pump.-Amanda

      @00thos-On a BG10, the main power cord is able to be removed from the handle by unscrewing the screws and disconnecting the plug harness. Inspect this plug in module for any signs of electrical issue (dark, smoky looking). If no signs of electrical issues are noted, more then likely it is the main vacuum motor's wiring connection that has failed. You are able to open the unit for this inspection as well and once into the vacuum motor area, it will not be hard to find and check those wiring points.

    This is the only repair video I could find on the BG10. There are no Bissell repair centers in Milwaukee Metropolitan Area (50 miles) WI. They are no longer in business or perhaps Bissell has ticked them off and they no longer service Bissell equipment - Website is not up yo date. The Bissell online chat rep told me they don't have service manuals for their equipment (not available to the general public?). No customer service or manuals. That sucks. My Big Green Clean Machine shuts off when t I rotate the handle yet remains on when the handle is upright. I have taken the covers off to see if there is noticeable wear on flex point of the wire harness and have no clue would should be the next step.

So, with that said, I am here to assist with Bissell Commercial units. Now, onto the homecare version that you have of our BG10/10N2 carpet extractor.

      Jermaine, You will want to test the pump first. Water in solution tank, turn unit on, and insert a large unbent paperclip into the small solution hose port directly in front of your flow indicator and depress the self-sealing gasket to allow the water to exit. If the water shoots up 6 to 8 inches high, the pump is good and you will only need to change out the solenoid valve.
