Why does my brush bar not spin?
I have recently replaced the entire head module after the old one burned out and things were working good for a few months. Now the brush bar has stopped working again. The issue started with the brush bar spinning intermittently when I lowered the handle to engage to brush bar. The brush bar would only engage when I held the handle at certain angles. Now it won’t engage at all. When I remove the head I still have suction. I suspect this might be a wiring issue. Any ideas on what parts need replaced?
Ist dies eine gute Frage?
The gear belt drive that connects to small brush was twisted off. – no way to repair or replace (no part number available) – replacing cleaner head is only option. The labor time to replace this part is what makes it more costly than replacing a cleaner head. I found the small brush had a lot more hair coiled at the broken spot than large brush on other side of the belt gear drive for large brush had. In case anyone wants to do preventive maintenance – Remove the small brush, remove the round triangle part (need long torx T-10 tool) clean out hair/debris wound on shaft that drives brush
