Ridgid Pressure washer has no pressure

If your Ridgid pressure washer has no pressure, the pump assembly is the most likely cause. A worn or damaged pump may leave the pressure washer motor running while the pump is not building pressure, resulting in weak pressure, low pressure, or no water pressure at the spray wand. If the pump is several years old and the machine is used often, replacing the complete pump assembly is usually the best repair. If the pump is relatively new or the pressure washer is used occasionally, the pump may be repairable by rebuilding it and replacing worn pump seals. Inspect the pump, pump head, pump manifold, pump valves, pump pistons or plungers, and pump o-rings for damage or wear. Before replacing parts, also check the water inlet filter, inlet screen, garden hose connector, high-pressure hose, spray gun, and quick-connect nozzle for restrictions that can cause a pressure washer to lose pressure. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement pump, pump seals, or other part for your specific Ridgid pressure washer.
