⚠️ SAFETY WARNING / FIRE RISK. This device contains lithium batteries. Improper puncturing or bending during disassembly can cause explosions or flash fires. Procedure requires precision and caution. ReeFix provides this diagnosis EXCLUSIVELY for educational and informational purposes.
TECHNICAL CHECKLIST
- [ ] Clean water tank vent valve: Inspect the silicone membrane on the clean water tank cap. If stuck by chemical residue, it creates a vacuum and prevents suction.
- [ ] O-Ring seal tightness: Check elasticity and seating of the base-tank coupling rubber gasket. Air leaks cancel the pump head (airlock).
- [ ] Distribution bar nozzles: Check with a pin or micro brush if the injection holes above the roller cavity are blocked by limescale or crystallized detergent.
- [ ] Micro-pump power supply: Apply a multimeter to the 12V/24V DC pump connector terminals selecting Max hydration to detect the PWM signal from the logic board.
- [ ] Roller condition and weave: Check that the microfiber is not saturated with dried detergent preventing uniform absorption.

INSPECTION RESULTS
- Limescale blockage in nozzles (45% of cases): The pump vibrates and runs, but water does not come out or wets only one side of the roller. Unclog micro-holes with a micro brush and flush with a Luer-Lock syringe loaded with diluted descaler.
- Air bubble / Airlock from vacuum (25% of cases): Full tank, but circuit in hydrostatic stall. Perform a forced bleed by pushing fluid through the inlet line and unblock the vent valve on the cap.
- Electromechanical pump failure (20% of cases): No noise or vibration at startup. Measure winding resistance or check for mechanical stall due to internal core oxidation.
- Leaks or MOSFET driver error (10% of cases): Worn O-ring sucking air instead of water, or overcurrent protection (OCP) triggering on the motherboard due to continuous pump overload.
Often happens when: Non-softened water (>25°f) or highly foaming detergents are used. Minerals crystallize in the silicone hoses, blocking flow and causing the integrated inverter to trip protection due to current spikes.
If cleaning the nozzles and bleeding the air does not resolve the issue -> measure the voltage at the pump: if power is present, replace the mini-pump; otherwise, the fault lies on the control board.
