Introduction

Use this guide to remove and replace one of the four switches on the Karcher Carpet Cleaner 10066730.

Follow this same procedure to remove the three other front panel switches. Note that the heater switch has an included light, so be sure to remove its accompanying power and ground wires if replacing.

The water switch and both pressure switches are part number 8.600-714.0, which the heater switch is part number 8.631-785.0.

Note: Before beginning repairs, disconnect the device from power, disconnect all hoses, drain and depressurize the system, and let the device cool if the heater was recently used.
