My Cordless Pressure Washer is Leaking Water From the Body of the Product
Modified on Fri, 26 Jun at 2:54 PM
Quick Answer
If your cordless pressure washer is leaking water from the main body, this is usually caused by either a damaged internal seal or a seal that has come away from the motor. In most cases, this will require inspection and possible replacement of the product.
Before You Start
Before checking the machine:
- Switch the pressure washer off
- Remove the battery
- Turn off the water supply
- Squeeze the trigger to release any remaining pressure
Important: Do not operate the machine if water is leaking from the main body.
What Is Causing the Issue?
A leak from the main body of the pressure washer is typically caused by one of the following:
- A crack in the internal seal around the product housing
- The seal coming away from the motor assembly
1. Crack in the internal seal
If there is a crack in the internal seal:
- Water may leak directly from the main body during operation
- The seal can no longer contain water pressure effectively
This type of damage usually requires a replacement product.

2. Seal coming away from the motor
If the internal seal has detached from the motor:
- Water may escape from the main housing of the unit
- The machine will not be able to maintain proper pressure
This is not a user-serviceable repair and typically requires replacement support.
