either your hose is stopped up or your motor is going bad and doesn't have enough power, first clean out your vacuum and check belts and make sure they aren't worn out and broken or stretched
You will need a Torx wrench (a special star-shaped wrench that is similar to an Allen wrench), to pull off the bottom plate. Once you do, the belt is easy to get to. Torx wrenches are a little uncommon, but they are normally sold in numbered sets, so either take the vacuum with you to the hardware store, or get a good idea of the size by looking at the screw head.
See if there is a manufactures web site and inquire if diagram is available or just Google for info with proper make and model. Fist just search for vacuum diagrams then refine search for your vacuum but this not always easy can be confusing so might have to take it to vacuum repair business or if you have not dissembled it yet just make notes when you do. Its not as hard as it seems I have done it many times.
Miele S251i Plus Bagged Canister Vacuum Miele white star canister vacuum - won't turn on,... Hi,
I have the above canister vac, which after my son tried to vac the stairs, it rolled down the stairs on him, but still worked, after turned off/on. Then after turned off maybe 10-15 mins., stopped working when we tried the switch. My father in law is our fix it guy, but still having a problem with the switch. Is there a wiring guide we could look at?
Thank you!
ALevy I would advise you to ALWAYS to FIRST UNPLUG YOUR VACUUM before beginning any service procedure.
You can try to call the factory for the Miele S251i schematics / wiring diagram @ the phone number and website listed below or I put a few pieces of information listed below that might help. 1. The vacuum cleaner switches off automatically A temperature limiter switches the vacuum cleaner off automatically if it gets too hot. Some models have a warning light (triangle) which comes on to indicate that it has overheated. Allow the appliance to cool down for approx. 30 mins. and remove any blockages to the air path. 2. The "Change dustbag" indicator stays on even when a new bag has been inserted To ensure the dustbag change indicator gives a correct reading, lift the floor nozzle or power head off the floor slightly to prevent the vacuum created in the suction tube from influencing the reading. 3. The exhaust filter indicator is red Change the exhaust filter and then press "Reset" to switch off the indicator light. http://miele.com1-800-999-1360 Customer Care Toll-Free Contact Information For a repair order, please contact us at our toll-free number (800) 999-1360, Monday through Friday from 8:00am to 8:00pm, Eastern Standard Time (EST). www.AVACcorp.com 1-800-328-9430
