I am looking for a contol board for a miele s143 stick vacuum. The vacuum wont start but when I supply power directly to the motor it spins. I think the switches are OK so I have concluded it is the control board Thanks Don Kenney

You probably need to replace the cord . No reset button

Most likely the speed control board has failed. The solution for this is to replace the electronic unit unless you know of someone who can diagnose and repair circuit boards. The part is common and easily replaced for around $60. Miele's website can point you in the right direction for a service center, or tell me your zip code and I'll look it up for you.

Hello, this is Ava with Think Crucial.

There are a number of reasons why your brush roller has stopped moving. General maintenance to your vacuum is crucial and will help it work at peak performance.

First things first let's focus on the brush roller. Unplug the vacuum and turn it on its side. Look for any noticeable clumps of debris or hair strands that may be caught in the brush roller. Remove these obstructions, probably best to do so with a scissor if it's hair or long pieces of carpet fibers. After removing the debris try manually rotating the brush roller to uncover other hidden clogs. Another thing to take note of is the condition of the bristles on the roll itself. Are they loose or worn down? These are signs that your brush roller is in need of replacing.

While checking out your brush roll you might as well take a look at your vacuums belt. Your belt should be replaced about every three months. After regular usage, the belt will stretch out, lessening the tension on the brush roller. Lesser tension diminishes the brush roller's turn rate and speed. If the belt feels loose then it certainly is affecting your vacuums suction as well as your brush roll not moving at all.

Here is one place.  I hope it helps.

It is most likely the hose. There are wires inside the hose that connect the speed and suction control on the handle, to the board inside the canister. After years of use, the wires can become damaged to the point that they wont complete the circuit anymore. Any vacuum store that sells miele will have the replacement hose. You can also get it from miele directly, or off ebay. Be careful going to the vacuum store if you dont have a trusted shop, as they make more money from the sale of a new vacuum, rather than a replacement hose.

Your vacuum should still be under warranty. If they dealer does not fix it for free call Miele directly.

Pull the head cover off to check the belt, if the belt is ok then it might be the power connection between the handle and the power head shaft. If the red light is on the power head, then its not the connection
because its getting power. Now some heads have a reset button on them,you could check this also.
With the cover off the power head, remove the belt, now turn it on, and be careful, but try to make the motor shaft spin,with one finger, because if it does start to spin you do not want to hurt your finger.

If the motor starts to spin,put the belt back on, if it does not spin again, the motor is too weak.
If it does not spin at all, the motor is bad.Hope this helps you,and you get it working.

Could have a problem with the motor, there also is a speed control circuit board mounted by the motor that may be starting to go bad.
