Here's something that has worked in the past. Turn the Master ON/OFF switch to OFF. Unplug the unit from the wall outlet and wait 12 - 15 minutes before plugging it back in. Once it's plugged back in turn the Master ON/OFF Switch to ON and set the controls as you normally do.I f everything now functions as it should, the unit reset itself.
If that doesn't solve the problem contact the Oreck Service Dept that did the tuneup for you.
these things are junk. you could also be doing more harm than good to
yourself and the indoor air quality in your home with the amount of
ozone these appliances omit into the air. throw it away
I had the same problem: Had cleaned it inside, taking off both grids, washing wire, etc. Still the red light blinking would come back on after a few minutes. So here's what I did next:
Take off the grids on both sides. Make sure the grids are clean with water and paper towels (lots of black) On the unit itself, wipe out the metal sides and all the plastic. Then, here's the KEY,
get out your computer cleaning canned AIR and blow it into the open unit and blow the air on both of the grids too. I first used a hairdryer to blow it out, but the canned air is much stronger and I got all kinds of little black particles out with it.
Put it up and down 3 times, plugged it back in and WALAA! The unit is back to working perfectly and no red light has come on again!
I'm sure this will work for everyone if you just get the canned air and blow out the unit and the grids too even though you've cleaned them!
there is only one other thing that i can think of that might work ifyou haven't done that yet. right above the timer button there is a small pin hole. that is your reset button. you need like a safety pin or something really small to go in that hole. hold it for about 3 seconds. take the pin out and the system should reset back to normal. sometimes when you clean the filters that happens. not every time but sometimes. Now if that doesn't work. i would call the manufacturer again so see if they have any other solutions or if they can send you one more. I do apologize for the inconvenience. I will keep looking for you to see if there is anything else that i can suggest but try that first.
I cleaned the filters as well earlier and the red filter light still blincked to clean the filters. Then I pushed the power button for about 10 seconds continously and then turned it on and the light turned off.
Same problem here. Opened it but everythng seemed intact. Red light flashes momentarily during initial plug in. Has power, oscillates but no fan rotation.
i do apologize for the inconvenience that your having with the product. The only other thing that i can suggest cause you already did the majority of the troubleshooting, is that there should be a small pin hole on the top of the unit. that's the reset. stick a small pin in there and hold for about 3 seconds and then the unit should be reset. if that doesn't work there is something internal that is going on. recheck the manual for the trouble shooting options as well.
When the red light is blinking, press and hold both up and down arrows until the red light blinks RAPIDLY, release both for a second or two, and press and hold both again until it stops blinking. It cured my problem.
