I need a new motor

The vacuum has a standard tube internal fuse. If you are lucky that is all it is. See the site http://www.sannerud.com/house/miele.html for instructions on how to open it up.

hope that helps

This indicates that you have a bad motor in the machine. If you are able to get power to the rest of the vacuum besides the motor, this means that the vacuum is getting power, and the motor's carbon brushes have probably worn out. I can look and see if the carbon brushes for the motor are availble, or if you'll have to purchase a new motor assembly completely if you can kindly do a clarification request or add a comment to this repair.

I'LL DO A SEARCH ON LONE BUT THE MODEL NUMBER WOULD HELP

Probably a hose clog. Check the hose on the back of the cannister. Most likely clogged where it attaches to allow debris into the cannister. If cannister is not filling up, that's a sure sign. To remove from top of back of cannister, just turn the ring on the end of the hose to release. Take it outside and push a long thin object through it to force out the clogged hair or debris. The motor is designed to shut off the vacuum cleaner for 30 minutes when this happens to avoid burning up your motor.

take me off your list ..... tell people that their is a charge before they give personal info .....rip off!!!!!

I only have the number for the hoover service center in Seattle, but they can certainly point you in the right direction of a service center in your area or a customer service rep.

Without the complete model number, I don't know for sure what componets you have, most likely is the motor. You will have to take the motor cover off and check it out. You can go to sears.com, click on parts, enter your complete model number, scroll down to cannister and it will bring up a parts list where you can order parts, also a diagram of the cannister.

On my 6500, I just disconnected the air line from the switch and now the vaccuum won't sense the bag pressure; I just have to check the bag myself now.

Wish you had listed the model number of the vac and of the powerhead. The plug going into the cannister, is it pushed all of the way in, also same for the plug going into the hose end? You can hook up the powerhead plug to a/c and see if it runs, if it does, then it is ok. Unhook the hose and plug and hook up a/c to that plug end and see if the powerhead will run, if not maybe the switch on the hose handle has a problem. Otherwise you have a problem in the cannister. If this is brand new, then it has a warranty, take in for repair.
