Hoover steamer f5915905 brushes wont turn plastic is not broke turbine turns

SOURCE: hoover spin scrub bristles not spinning

I have had two of these... both broken. The handle and tank on one and this one today seems to have lost a belt or gear between the brushes and the motor. The brush assembly seems to spin as it should by hand. Slight tension from pushing what sounds like some gears around. Can't open it up to see whats in there but my guess is a belt between the motor and gears on the brushes. But no entry equals trash. My origonal idea of buying the same unit for spare parts has become a waste of time, money and effort. I wonder if Dyson has jumped into this market yet?

You have to take the top cover off, turn unit over and from the bottom, remove the screws, 2 of them will be long, they hold the turbine down. Turn it back over and removethe cover. There 2 more screws at the front of the turbine (#23 and the hoses attached to it. Then it will come off.

Take out the screws from the bottom, there will 2 longer ones, they got into the turbine, turn it upright and take the top cover off. The turbine sits near the front, center, remove the 2 screws on the front of it, remove the hoses, then you can remove the turbine(#23).

Is the shaft on the brush block or did it break off, if it did, replace the brush block. On the top, left rear corner is a lever that moves baack or forward depending on the handle being upright or tilted back for usuage. Is it moving? If not then you have a problem there. Otherwise if the square hole doesn't move when it is turned on, and the lever is switch to the on position, then replace the turbine.

first you must remove the dirty water tank then the nozzle window on top of the machine. (this is the clear piece that the dirty water is sucked through.) then remove all 8 screws from the bottom along with the 1 screw on the main housing. after all this the top housing will be snapped into the base at two spots in the rear of the upper housing. when these are loose the housing should be out. you will find the turbine in the front along with 2 more screws and 2 hoses that also must come off. attach new part and reassemble.
good luck!!!
