When a Homelite pressure washer has no pressure, is not building pressure, or has lost pressure, the pump assembly is the most likely problem. A worn or damaged pump can leave the motor running while the spray remains weak, and frequent use over several years can wear the pump beyond economical repair. If the pump is relatively new or the pressure washer is used only occasionally, worn pump seals are often the cause. In that case, rebuilding the pump or replacing its seals may restore pressure. On an older, heavily used machine, replacing the complete pressure washer pump assembly is usually the better repair. Before removing the pump, verify that the water supply is fully open and that the inlet screen, high-pressure hose, spray wand, and quick-connect nozzle are not blocked, since restricted water flow can also cause low pressure. Use your model number to find the exact replacement pump, pump assembly, or pump seals for your specific Homelite pressure washer. Repair Clinic carries the parts needed to fix a pressure washer pump not building pressure instead of replacing the entire machine.
