Carpet cleaner won't remove water
Or, to lighten the mood, it sucks because it doesn't suck up.
Hoover model FH50150 cleaner won't vacuum up the water from the carpet. I removed the top of the unit from the bottom to expose the filter mesh, and found it was clogged with carpet fiber. I cleaned it, cleaned the rotary brushes, reassembled it, and it still doesn't remove the water. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I would check any place something opens (tank) or you connect a hose. You are looking for a suction leak, possibly from a bad or missing seal or gasket.
