I am looking for the plug and socket that mate when the lift out unit is placed back in the base unit. It is located at the bottom of the lift out part and the top rear of the base unit. They are a molded 2pin P&S that have short pig tails with plugs on the end of them. Thank you for any help, Bob
WOW just spoke with bissell, and they are sending me out a refurbished 3750-r. This thing has been sitting in my basement for over 5 months, who would have known.... Thanks Guys
Same issue, called them up and they are sending a refurb back to me.
I emailed Bissell and they responded quickly and are going to send me a new vacume after I send them the cord. Thanks for the solution!!!
I called Bissell and they wanted me to buy a new vacuum. Planned obsolescence, at 5 years. Basically the male piece and female piece mate and then we have electrical contact and the brush motor spins. Over the years the friction causes the pieces to no longer mate since the male piece will eventually have a smaller diameter. So we need to clean off the three male pieces, and I used a dental scraper, similar technique to having your teeth scraped at the dentist. Once the three male pieces are cleaned down to bare metal and shiny, glistening, then we are ready for the next step. I used a 132 watt Weller Junior soldering gun and 60/40 solder and coated the three male pieces with solder. Low and behold, the brush roll motor turns on strongly and we have a fixed vacuum, combating that planned obsolescence. Heck the Electrolux from 1955 still works, and we have to buy new brushes every twenty years or so.
Send an email to Bissell and they will send you a new refurbished vacuum. For some reason I was only able to find the male plug. So when I contacted Bissell they responded promptly no questions asked and said they would send me a new vacuum...All I had to do was send them the cord and they even paid for shipping!

The plug and socket for the lift out unit burned up. I emailed Bissell to inquire about parts....hoping they will end up sending me a new vacume!
I tried what Eric said and they are sending a refurbished vacuum. Thanks for the help, Bob
I am trying the email route, after reading your siggestion our 3750-T is less than 3yrs old and we noticed it smoking - so we cleaned everything and then noticed the plug and socket were completely melted, and now it will not work at all.
The plug and socket for the lift out unit burned up.
After a few years of light use my Bissell mod. 3750-t began smoking. I shut it down and unplugged it and after a quick look over I noticed that the plug between the lift off unit and the base had burned itself into a chunk coal. I have done an extensive search for replacemnt parts but could only find the male plug. Where can I get the matching female side? sdmalles
