20 Most Recent Kenmore 34612 Bagged Upright Vacuum Questions & Answers

It is an electrical problem in the handle, if you can or know somebody that has any fix it ability it can be fixed in about ten minutes. Oh, and Sears SUCKS!!

I suspect that you have a restriction. The motor sounds like the thermal break is stopping the motor before damage, due to heat.
You must witness that the entire suction and discharge side are clear. This is not always very easy, but necessary. I bet that you find something blocking somewhere...

There is a very small wheel attached to the motors drive. Belt goes around the motor drive wheel and then around the drive roller assembly

Well what you said about the wheels could be the problem. But it also could be the belt, if it hasn't been changed, or is a few months old, it may have stretched so as not to turn the brush roll, whitch would make push hard. The brush roll is what will pull the vacuum, so if the belt is bad, or the bristles of the brush roll are worn down, they need replacing.

It sounds like the brushroll has caused your belt problem and will be the cause of your burning smell as well. What commonly occurs is that carpet fiber,hair,string, thread,etc got wound around the brushroll and some will get caught in the end caps which is where the bearings are.The end caps need to be removed and cleaned so that the bearings can allow the brush to rotate freely.Check that there is no melting of the end caps or the base plate where the end caps fit into the machine._Good Luck

I don't have specific information on the Kenmore upright vacuum cleaner model number 116.31912100 or the part number 8174906, but I can provide you with general guidance on how to remove and install pedals on some vacuum cleaner models. Keep in mind that procedures may vary between models, so use the following as a general guide:

Removing the Pedal:

1. Unplug the Vacuum Cleaner: Ensure the vacuum cleaner is unplugged to prevent any electrical accidents.
2. Turn the Vacuum Cleaner Over: Lay the vacuum cleaner on its back so that you have easy access to the underside.
3. Locate the Pedal Assembly: Identify the pedal assembly on the underside of the vacuum cleaner. It is usually connected to the height adjustment or other features.
4. Release Tabs or Screws: Look for tabs or screws securing the pedal assembly in place. Use a screwdriver or the appropriate tool to release these tabs or screws.
5. Disconnect Linkages: Some pedal assemblies are connected to linkages that control various functions. Disconnect any linkages carefully.
6. Remove the Pedal Assembly: Once the tabs, screws, and linkages are disconnected, carefully remove the pedal assembly from its housing.

Installing the Pedal:

1. Position the New Pedal: If you are replacing the pedal, position the new pedal in place.
2. Reconnect Linkages: If your vacuum cleaner has linkages, reconnect them to the appropriate points on the new pedal assembly.
3. Secure the Pedal: Use screws or tabs to secure the new pedal assembly in place. Make sure it is securely fastened.
4. Test the Pedal: Manually operate the pedal to ensure that it moves smoothly and engages the desired function.
5. Turn the Vacuum Cleaner Upright: Once the pedal is securely in place, turn the vacuum cleaner upright and plug it back in.

If you're uncertain about any steps or encounter difficulties, it's recommended to consult the user manual for your specific model or contact the manufacturer's customer support for assistance. They may provide detailed instructions or guidance tailored to your vacuum cleaner's model and part.

There isn't one! I checked yesterday when I answered your first question. https://www.google.com/search?q=Kenwood+bu4022+service+manual ..

It should be in the power head to the side of the hinge. Sears says there are no parts presumably because it has reached its service life. https://www.searspartsdirect.com/model/61rux2nv6w-000582/kenmore-bu4022-upright-vacuum-parts https://www.google.com/search?q=kenmore+intuition+bu4022+replace+power+head+switch ..

More likely to be a bad connection or brushes on the motor that need replacing. Classic symptom of bad / worn brushes.

Press and hold the filter reset button for 3 seconds to reset the indicator. The control may need to be replaced if it isn't able to reset. [url=http://spacebarcounter.org]Spacebar counter[/url]

Thank you very much. I'm up and running again. My retractable cord jump track and got stuck. Thank you thank you. And I did it myself with your directions. Linda

It isn’t the belt. Hair builds up in other places besides the brush. The device is made to come apart. Take it apart an clean out both ends on the shaft of roller brush. Remove tangled hair on the shaft and the brushes.
