I plug my Kracher power washer's power cord into an outdoor extension cord. I connect the extension cord into the electrical outlet, but the Kracher will not turn on. You can test the fuse in the Kracher's power cord on and off, and you can hear the click indicating the on or off. However, the power washer's motor does not turn on to powerwash. Any ideas? Thank you.
Sure that the outlet you are using is powered? Is power reaching the motor? - I had my power switch on my karcher break internally rendering machine dead. If power is reaching the motor for sure and it does not run then there has to be an open motor winding. If pump jammed you would hear a humming noise from motor and the breaker would pop.

I have a 12505 also. It is a 220VAC unit. There are two fuses that are intended to be accessible from the rear. On our unit, these blow every few years and need to be replaced. The unit shows no signs of life when they go. The fuse holders tend to disintegrate from the heat, so I have had to replace these multiple times also.

Here is the web page on how to install the pump guard. The bottle is installed on the water inlet side of the pump. Good Luck, enjoy

call whirlpool, sounds as if you have a faulty electronic control board( power supply board) warranty issue, non need for you to get involved with the repairing of this

Check the coupling between the motor and transmission. It probably needs to be replaced.
