How to fix your shark steam mop (green or purple model)

How to fix a shark steam mop (1) powers on (2) heats up (3) pump is working (4) no steam.

I had bought a Shark Steam mop, and had been using it a few times, when all of a sudden it stopped working.

I happened to buy this model at Target, and found that I had owned it for three months, and would have to go to the manufacturer for any resolution.

After reading the warranty card, I had little faith in the manufacturer honoring the warranty. In the way that the warranty is written, it is written in a way, in which the manufacturer can escape fulfilling the warranty work in a multitude of ways.

After deciding that I felt I could fix the unit if I tried, and returns and the manufacturer were ruled out, I began to take the unit apart.

In my life, I have decided that I want to contribute and give back, the knowledge that was freely given to me, in my ability to tinker and understand mechanical things, as well as understand the way a unit was designed, so while I took apart my unit, I decided to take a video of all that I did, and how you may have a way to fix your unit as well.

My hope is that you are benefitted from this video. I tried to make it as clear as possible. If you like the video, feel free to comment, and subscribe to my youtube channel. I will be adding more videos, as I come across ways which I feel led to share. Be well, and take care my friend.
