How to Identify and Fix Common Vacuum Problems ?

Our sources include academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays from experienced Vacuum Technicians :

Unplug device, remove tanks and flip it over. Check the clear plastic floor nozzles for debris. If they are dirty, unscrew the two screws next to them to remove the nozzle and clean with warm water. Check the suction holes where the nozzles were for any debris and clean them out.
Make sure the Clean Water Tank is seated correctly on the machine. If it isn`t, turn off and unplug your machine, remove and reseat the tank until it clicks into place. This is also a good time to check for cracks or leaks in the tank. If it`s damaged, a replacement can be ordered on BISSELL.com.
Empty and rinse the dirty water/collection tank after each use or when the dirty water tank reaches the indicated maximum fill line. To remove the tank, lift up the dirty tank latch and pull the tank out. Dump out the dirty water and rinse out the tank.
Your dirty water tank may not be secured tightly. Check the rubber tab on the dirty water tank and press firmly on all edges to secure it tightly. The accessory hose door also needs to be closed securely. Check the door and make sure it is locked in place.
Locate the brush reset button on the lower back right of the vacuum. Press the button to reset the brushroll To ensure the brush has been reset, plug the vacuum back into the electrical outlet.
First, check to make sure the clean tank has water and/or the water & formula mixture in the tank. If your tank is empty, this could be the reason your machine is not spraying. You will need to fill your clean tank again. Reseat the tank and ensure it sits snug on the machine.
If you want to clean up a spill right away, but you don`t have any cleaning solution for the Bissell SpotCleaner, then you should try hot tap water. Hot tap water is pretty good at cleaning up fresh spills and most of your easy to clean light dirt and stains.
Hold cleaning tool just above surface of carpet or upholstery to be cleaned. Press spray trigger to release a spray of cleaning solution directly onto stained or soiled area. 2. Wait 3-5 minutes before cleaning.
Turn the unit on to activate the suction. Press the front of SpotLifter PowerBrush firmly against surface to vacuum the spill. Press the Manual Trigger Spray to apply the cleaning solution. Press the front of the SpotLifter PowerBrush firmly against the surface to vacuum the cleaning solution.
With just the push of a button, the BISSELL® SpotBot® Portable Spot Cleaner with Antibacterial Formula delivers hands-free spot and stain removal on carpets and area rugs.
Open your App on the Developer Portal. Go to the Bot settings from the side menu. Press the Reset Token button located under the Build-a-Bot section.
A bot config is set of instructions that allows bot operators to perform a specific set of requests towards a targeted web app or website. It is the core of a credential stuffing tool that enables attackers to systematically attempt to break into online accounts in bulk.
If the float is low in the tank, the tank won`t fill. If there is no water flow or slow water flow into the tank after a flush, either the float valve is clogging or there is a clog in the water pipe leading to the toilet.
There could be several factors as to why your BISSELL PowerFresh steam mop is not producing steam. First, check to make sure the unit is plugged in and is in a working outlet. Next, check to make sure there is water in the tank. It is very important to make sure you are ONLY using water to fill the tank.
Recline the vacuum and switch the brush roll button on. If you are vacuuming on Premium Soft Carpet and the brush roll is not rotating, you may need to turn the Floor Type Setting towards higher carpet. You may have stalled the brush motor. To reset, turn off and unplug, then plug back in and turn on.
These filters can be hand washed in warm water. A mild detergent may also be used. Close the lid and return the tank back to the vacuum. Press firmly until you hear a “click”.
Inspect the vacuum hose for any small holes, kinks, or cracks. Any cracks or holes will decrease the amount of suction in the hose and will not allow the carpet extractor to properly remove liquid from the floor. The hose will need to be replaced if there is damage.
Clog located in the vacuum hose

Turn the unit on and feel the suction at the end of the hose handle. If there is no or low suction, then the clog is in the hose. You can remove the clog by running a long, stiff object through the hose, such as a butter knife, starting at the wall end.

Your BISSELL Steam Mop has been designed to be used with tap water although to prolong its life the use of demineralised water is strongly recommended.
Yes, it is safe to leave cleaning formula in the clean tank when not in use.
Overall the Bissell spot clean pro is a handy and capable machine. For anyone with pets or kids and carpet, having some type of emergency system for cleaning up spills and stains is pretty much a must.
Remove Solution Tank by grasping the indentations with thumb and finger firmly, and pulling it straight up. Open the Tank by unscrewing and removing the cap. Add BISSELL Little Green formula to the indicated “Formula” line on Tank. NOTE: Your Spot Lifter is shipped with starter bottle of formula.

My model F5906-900 — problem is the brushes have stoped working… I pulled the brush assembly out by holding the two tabs, and all seems clean and the brush assembly rotates easly… onced the brush assembly is removed. What I did notice is the female driver slot (found in the main assembly unit) that drives the brushes seems stuck..Is that normal when the machine is not hooked up to power? How can I get the brushed going??? it is a good machine, but the brush options is important too it’s ab
ANSWER : (1) Assure the Brush Control on the hood is NOT set to the OFF position.
.(2) Remove the brush assembly by pulling/unlatching it from base on each side.
.(3) Does one of the brushes have the drive pin present? It should be about ¼ inch square, and two inches long. It attaches the brushes to the drive mechanism.
.(4) Remove and clean the intake filter. One the base of the cleaner, behind the brushes, squeeze the two red abs together and pull the panel down to access the screen. Clean the hair/debris off the screen and reassemble.

Now that I just fixed my Lux Legacy canister vacuum, I need help on my other Electrolux Regency Series upright! The vacuum works fine but the rotating brush does not work and the brush motor does not turn on. Tried cleaning the brush and hitting hte reset button to no avail. This upright has a triple setting switch and I checked the each of the wires seem to be attached. Tried rotating the brush by hand and it would not budge. Was going to “encourage” the brush to turn with a set of articula
ANSWER : There are a couple rectangular holes on the bottom of the power nozzle, beside the wheels. These have tabs in them that need released with a standard screwdriver.
.rogerpotts_10.jpg.Once they release, turn the vacuum over and lift cover of power nozzle at the back. This pulls the front of the cover out of the lip on the “bumper”.
.Once this is done, you’ll need to unscrew the screw at each end of the brush. Lift the brush out and thoroughly clean it, including the ends.
. rogerpotts_9.jpg.
.Check the wiring to make sure they’re connected to the terminals of the motor. Also, check the belt for wear and tear. These belts can last for five years or more, but if it looks bad a good time to replace it is while you have the power head apart.
.When reassembling the vacuum, ensure the belt is fitted properly around the motor shaft and brush.
.Insert the front of the cover first, ensuring the edge fits neatly beneath the lip on the bumper all the way around. It takes a little manipulating to press the back into place. Make sure both tabs click into the locked position. Turn the vacuum over and reinstall screws. Try to rotate brush by hand a few times.
.At this point, plug the vacuum in and turn it on. If the power head doesn’t run, press the reset button. If the power head motor still doesn’t run, it could be due to loose or disconnected wires that lead to the reset switch, a bad reset switch, or even a bad motor. The vacuum needs to be taken to the nearest Aerus Electrolux store for further diagnosis and repair.

My spotbot is not spraying the solution. The brushes are working but no liquid is spraying.
ANSWER : There is a very small, white water filter (approx. 3/8″ in diameter/ 1/8″ thick) inside the “seat” where the solution tank connects to the machine itself. Could very well be your problem if you are in a city environment, or any other situation where hard water is present. This is a very easy fix; discovered it when my wife experienced the exact same problem.

1) Make sure other causes have been eliminated, such as clogged nozzles, etc. (Refer to owners manual.)

2) Ensure that the solution tank is indeed seating properly with the machine, (a few small bubbles rise from the connection once made.)

3) Remove solution tank. With needle nose pliers or a very small screwdriver, GENTLY remove the white filter from the black, movable “seat” connection on the machine.

4) Run the machine on manual (without the filter) to determine if this is indeed your problem. (Don’t run for an extended period of time this way if this actually is your problem. The filter is there for a reason!)

5) Simply wash the filter gently between thumb and fore-finger. Vinegar may be used, but simple tap water works as well. If clogged, you should feel grainy, hard water type scale/ lyme build-up when cleaning the filter.

6) Recycle the original filter or replace if necessary. (It would be very easy to make a new one without going through the hassle of dealing with OEM parts or Bissell. Just go to your local hardware store and they should be able to help you out with no problem.)

Voila! Spotbot works again.

Hope this helps!

My Roomba only works correctly when I leave out the rubbery type brush (not the fiber filled brush)…… when I leave the rubber one in, it doesn’t pick up & then finally stops & says REMOVED BRUSHES….. I have cleaned every nook & cranny of this thing… inside & out. I finally found that if this one brush is left off…. it works great & has for 2 weeks??? What could be the problem?
ANSWER : Hi,
.First let’s try one more time to clear out anything that might be caught inside. For this disassemble the green brush cage unit, partially, from the blue box. This would expose the cover of the gear box. On the left side, with the white nylon holes in which the square ends of the brushes plug. Remove the cover of the gear box with a tiny Philips screw driver might be there are 6 screws. Inside you would see two Golden Retrievers. Once, cleaned meticulously, the Roomba will be back. If this does not resolve the issue then probably needs this part

Brushes only work when Dust Bin is removed!!
I have cleaned & cleaned this thing! It runs for about 2 mins & stops, says “Clean Brushes”! and now it’s very noticeable it’s not picking up well… but is picking up a bit.

ANSWER : HI,
If the brushes work , without the bin, the problem , the problem could be caused , due the failure at the bin lock mechanism. There is a sensor that checks if the BIN is connected properly or not. This problem is best resolved by getting the same replaced .
