This is how I fixed a 2300psi 1.2gpm Ryobi electric pressure washer that would turn on but would not build any pressure what so ever. These are the steps I took to fix the unit and get it up and running again.
Thank You!!! I have same model -- just tried your recommendation and it works. For others: don't give up... I had to add more CLR to the soap dispenser and continue to run the washer. After about 3 to 5 minutes, it started spitting and eventually back to the strong power wash.
Will try your method again. P.S. I just add it in the water garden hose port (water go in) and seal the other side with balloon, and let it sit overnight, and it did not work.
I’m looking at one now for a friend, same symptom Wondering if I should pull the pump and check the springs and check valves I took one apart years ago and vaguely recall small springs and nylon discs/ plungers They may all be oxidized with hard water and siezed up CLR is worth a try along with 60 # h2o # behind it later on
I have the same problem on the same model and I worked the same way , but didn’t solve my problem and still has no pressure . Is there any other solution?
