Karcher HDS 745

[zaza]

I was using my Karcher HDS 745 pressure washer/steam cleaner today and I unfortunately let go of the triigger on the lance when I had got a fair bit of heat on. I always reckon to turn the heat off and let the water coming out of teh lance cool down to normal temperature before I release the trigger. The problem is that it won't start up again. I let it cool down for an hour, emptied the water tank, and still it won't start up. Instead it just blows the fuse in the 13amp 3 pin plug.

Can anyone give me any hints as to what might be wrong please ? I've got the PDF manual and I'll read it later but I wondered if there are any Karcher gurus on here who could give me any advice or help ? TIA for any kind person who can.

sounds like theres pressure somewhere between the pump and the lance , sticky pressure switch

Apologies for this late conclusion. The problem was a burnt out capacitor. All fixed now.
