Why Is My Water Flosser Not Working?

Is your water flosser not functioning as it should? There could be several factors at play. Here's a step-by-step tutorial to help you diagnose and potentially fix the issue.

Symptom: LED Indicator Not On, Motor Not Running

If you notice that the LED indicator isn't lighting up and the motor isn't running when you power on your water flosser, there's a possibility that water leakage has damaged the PCBA board. In this case, it's advisable to get in touch with the supplier for repair or replacement.

Symptom: LED Indicator On, Motor Running

If the LED indicator is on and the motor is running, your water flosser might just need a little nudge to get back on track. Follow these steps to activate your device:

1. Uninstall and Prepare: Begin by removing the water tank and pulling out the suction pipe.

I bought my flosser (This is the second one), the first one lasted about 1.5 years ant stopped charging. I ordered a new one on August 20, 2024 on Amazon (Order # 111-8156101-5159425), and the unit stopped working properly. (not enough pressure coming out of the nozzle). I really expect a replacement on the unit, since it hasn’t been not even 6 months since I got it. Thank you very much.

My AquaSonic Flosser stopped working. Won’t charge. The blue light switches still between various modes.

Can someone please offer a suggestion on how to fix it?

Thanks in advance!

The AquaSonic Aqua Flosser (RST5002 plus) light keeps blinking after the whole night being charged and it would not turn on. What should I do to make it work?

Hello,
I recently bought my flosser. The green light is on indicating that it is fully charged, however, it is not serving its purpose.

I have to go back to my regular tooth brush but I need more help with my braces.

Please advise. Thank you.

Flosser comes on by itself and it won’t turn off. Pressing the off button does not work.
