'recovery tank not seated properly'....
Ty so much for posting this!! I swear I was just about to take this thing apart, but decided to take a break first and Google some options. And wudayaknow...someone describing EXACTLY what my machine was doin'. With the air blowing underneath and everything. Because it's never that simple for me, whenever I go to the all answering internet for help, it always ends up that I'm the only 1 on earth that has this problem. LoL. So thank you thank you thank you. I guess I'll get use my brand new Makita power screwdriver(???? Power drill??? It was a gift.lol) another time .

I would almost guarantee the recovery tank is not seated properly. Trust me, I reseated the tank 5-10 times before giving up. I finally decided to give it one more try before forking out the money for another cleaner. I removed the clean water tank, turned the machine on (you could feel the air blowing out the sides on the bottom). With the machine still running, I unclipped the recovery tank and lifted it up (yes, you can do this, and it creates a very loud air thrust, but don't be scared), then I SLAMMED it back down into the seat and immediately I could tell the difference. The air stopped blowing from underneath and I could tell I had suction once again. I turned it off, put the clean water tank back on, and it worked like a charm. Trust me, you may be convinced that the recovery tank is seated properly.....LOL.....it ain't! Hope this helps!

With the tank off, can you see the rod in the handle move up and down when you squeeze the trigger. The part that the tank sits on is acalled a resevoir asm. it may have gone bad, or the seal is out of place.

From your description, you have a problem with your one of the solenoids that may be stuck open. this would require a shop repair.
