If you no longer have High Pressure coming out while machine is running, it's a pump issue.

Electricity and water can be a hazard which could be life threatening, but you can operate electrical equipment in a wet environment if you are careful and follow safety precautions. Most import, make sure the electrical outlet you are using for the pressure washer has a working ground plug. Just because an outlet has three prongs does not mean the ground is working. You need to use an outlet tester which is inexpensive from a hardware store or use a multi meter to test the ground for conductivity to earth ground. Your power washer should have a working GFI (Ground fault interrupter), and you need to press the test button to make sure it is working. If your power washer does not have a GFI purchase one from a hardware store. I would also plug the power washer directly into the electrical outlet since an extension cord could have a bad ground connection and will cause the power washer to pull more current from the outlet. Make sure the power washer is raised of the ground so it will not sit in a pool of water. If you follow the safety precautions you should be safe but keep in mind water does not carry the electrical current, it is the impurities in the water which carry the current. Therefore, water could be more conductive depending on the impurity of water. However, it sounds like a loose connection in the power washer which could also be an o-ring or a washer is broken and it would b a good idea to have it fixed.

Hi Guys there isnt a problem with your machine you just need to pull the end of the spray lance out -the lumpy bit where the water exits the machine (it kinda clicks out)
SOURCE: pressure washer lost pressure in the middle of a job
The pressure valve has stuck in the high pressure position. This prevents anymore inflow and hence no further water will be pumped.
Rebuild the valve... There are O Rings to replace and clean the bore with croocus cloth. Lube the O rings with plumber's grease... good as new! 15 minute job. Get EXACT sized O rings for the unit.

THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH THE WATER SUPPLY, the compressor has a chamber made bi aluminium alloy and in time builds aluminium oxides (like sand) tihs deposits can block the valves on open position, this is cause of long period of not using the machine. Solving : repair the compressor bye taking apart the compressor up to the valve and clean tem bye removing the sand from the valve part were is siting on plastic or change the valve and mount on inlet a tap to not let the water go back out and let the air take place and do oxide again
