I HAVE A MODEL 260M THAT HAS A WAND THAT IS CRACKED, CAN I GET A NEW ONE?

there are 2 wands for this unit Emer Vacuums Vacuum Cleaner PartsVacuum Cleaners Powered by Network...

the seal in the plunger valve of your wand is bad or possibly it froze and cracked...either way to work on it far exceeds the cost of a new one so you will just save yourself time and money by buying a new wand at a local dealership...good luck

This is a fuser error. You will need to buy a new fuser and fit it.

The fitting for the trigger is cracked. It happened to mine because I did not make sure the wand and hose was drained before winter came. The water left in the wand expanded and cracked the trigger housing. The problem is that the trigger piece is easily replaceable, but it is not available. Alltrade makes you buy the complete wand.

How's the hose?
If it's only one wand, yes, you'll need to buy a new one. It depends on where it burnt out. If it was at a connection to the hose, the other wand, or the power nozzle, you need to check the connections thoroughly for discoloration, breaks/cracks, and potentially shorts in the hose, wand, and power nozzle.
The entire vacuum should be taken to the nearest Aerus Electrolux dealer for troubleshooting for what caused the sparking in the first place.

It's probably due to bad wiring connections between the wands, hose and wand, or power nozzle and wand. If it came with the Sidekick, try using it on the end of the hose. If not, simply try using the power nozzle on the end of the hose (no wands). If it works, then the problem is going to be with the cord sections in the wands. Check them good for cracks, breaks, and discoloration at connections. Replace if necessary.

The spray wand has a short plastic tube that the rubber hose slides over. Here's what it should look like, if it's not broken:
A 'band clamp' goes over the rubber hose to tighten it onto that little tube. If the band clamp is missing, you can get one at a hardware store - just find the size that fits over the rubber hose. If the rubber hose end is torn or cracked, just make a new clean cut with a knife.
But if the plastic tube has broken off the wand, you need to get a new wand. Good news - it's not expensive. This one's only 8 bucks.
Hope that helps you, if so please rate my solution, thanks and good luck!

Hello,

Unfortunatley the Wand for your Miele is sold as an entirely assembly only. Miele does not sell pieces of this wand separately. In order to fix your wand you'll need to purchase a new wand assembly complete.

The wand on your Miele is the Miele SET210 Wand. Here's a link if you need to purchase one;

I would probably guess that your wand broke off right at the bottom where it connects into the power nozzle. Unfortunately this is the weakest part of the wand as you can probably see. The wand narrows into a thinner plastic here, and I've seen a few wands crack off right on the bottom part.

Please feel free to request a repair clarification if you have any questions about how to repair your vacuum.

At the top of your wand, do you have a plastic swivel that cover a hole in the wand? This is for when you are cleaning curtains, and if that is open, or cracked you will loose suction there... also check your hose for cracks, or breaks. If it were in the shop I would put a gauge on it... normal suction is about 80-95 inches of water lift at the end of the hose. Once you have check each section of the hose, and wand, check the housing for cracks, a missing gasket (Very Good Reason For Lack Of Suction) As to your Filter, how long have you used that one filter, you can clean them for a while, but once a paper filter gets full of FINE dust you won't get it all out, you will have to replace the filter itself at that point. I hope this was helpful.
