I see that the water is gone from the water trap. My compressor stopped working and this is all that I see that may be wrong. What should I do?

Not sure what you're saying, but the water in you moisture trap is a good thing. Worst case scenario, call airbrush Depot and see what rhwykk do to replace it.

If you can't use water ... use AIR [ a compressor and blow gun ] will get rid of most of the debris .

Make sure the tubing/vent openings are clear and clean. Use distilled water as directed, and change the water bottle, which may be helpful.

I had the same thing. It was dirty... Use white vinegar to clean the water reservoir and fan. Replug in, place in the reservoir tank filled. It should work. These need new filters about every three months because they filter alot of air, its amazing whats in our air..especially if you keep a window open... Hope this helps.

I recommend you clean out the entire filter system, wash out the dirt , etc and place everything back in, and fill it with water before turning it on. Also check you hoses and make sure the top is lined up with the filter trays inside.

I don't use mine very often, but I've used it a few times at least with no problems. But a couple days ago I used it and I think I've got the same problem you are describing. I could hear that it was not working right and I could see that water was not getting sucked up. I picked up and reseated the water tank assembly. Then it worked fine again. The problem is, I had to do this several times as I cleaned our small living room. I hope this is not going to be a continual problem because the machine is very new and has seen very little use.

there is a plastic insert in the hose which regulates the flow of the water . maybe it has something blocking the flow . take that plastic insert out . maybe that might fix your problem

You should check to be sure the unit is absolutely level. If it isn't, the water may flow into the tank instead of the hose. (Had it happen to me.)

Try this: Remove cover, empty out all the water and then fill it with fresh water. If that doesn't work, then try this: unplug it, remove cover, inside you will see sensor (it sticks up a little with a silver metal on top) touch the sensor with your finger. For some reason this works. I think the sensor gets stuck "thinking" the water level is low, so the unit doesn't go on.

Mine had the same thing. I actually cleaned it out real good and ran straight water through it and now the issue is resolved. Not sure what it was though

Just make sure the vacuum part at the bottom is clean. I had the same issue but turned out the brushes at the bottom had stuff rapped around it blocking the water to come out.

Make sure that you have no kinks in the hosing, and then you turn the water on all the way so it's shooting out the bottom stick in the tank and turn the blue switch and it should begin suction. If not double check to make sure all connections are done correctly and tightly. If all else fails contact the company for support and possible product replacement. The best of luck to you once it's working its a wonderful product

Is the machine new? If it's old, did you clean the machine and prep it for storage last year? If you didn't you can try the cleaning fluid or get some very hot distilled water and try to clear the machine. BTW, did you use distilled water last year? If you used tap water you may have scaling build up which may not be fixable.

I'd take it outside and use a can of air or a compressor. Check to see what mfr recommends first. Unplug it first, naturally

try removing the water bottle and draining whatever water is in there and start over. i have this water system and have not had a problem with it.

Looks like you ran out of room before you completed your question. It is difficult to say without seeing it. The flapper could be leaking, the top of the Fluidmaster could be leaking, a sand particle could be in the Fluidmaster and may need flushing and/or replacing, or the water level adjustment could be wrong and the water is running out of the overflow.

The gauge should not fill up with water ,I believe you have a defective pressure gauge
