"You MUST get the autobrite in order for it to work with the Karcher. I had to make my own"

Kinky!!!

*BTW* espelirS2K is right. Autobrite doesn't ship to every US state. I'm on there now trying order one and it's not letting move on to payment info. It's stuck at delivery info..

Hey guys - slightly off topic, but not really.

It's possible that Karcher has improved their power washer pumps over the years, but I've had a lot of trouble out of mine. Mine is a K-2400 that I bought at Costco some time ago. Honda motor, 5.5HP gas, 2400psi.

Turns out these things are famous for having their "unloader valve" get stuck. I've had to perform the following procedure on mine twice now:

A larger diagram of the procedure:

No idea if they still do this. But if they do - or if anyone is considering buying a Karcher 2400 second hand - I thought I'd share the experience.

Noobs, quit ordering off the website and get ahold of a real autobrite representative and order direct.
