check that the locking ring on the lance/nozzle etc has not become detached and stuck onto the gun. Mine did this often. It involved removing the fitting (from around the outlet pipe of the lance) with pointy nosed pliers and refitting along with a new o-ring.
If yours has gone this way, it will almost certainly need a new o - ring, and they are an odd size, being slightly thicker than standard ones.
I have now replaced all of my fittings, but still use the now 9 year old pressure washer. Slowly replacing various components to 1/4" quick release fittings and heavy duty lance. Almost certainly you will not need new lance, or accessories, but rather the o-rings and locking fitting, like this

If you plan to change the accessories, I would advise looking for alternative. Often the same price, or cheaper, but normally better quality than the Karcher offerings.
