SOURCE: I have a dirt devil

I have always bought dirt devils and this last on that I got is bad it dose not clean by the base boards like the others it dose not pickup stuff from the floor like the others, when you add one of the attachments to it that takes away from the sucking power and that power brush is a joke. I used it twice and it broke. I am not happy with this one at all.I have thought real hard about changing to a differant brand.I don't know what happened but something has to change.
thank you for your time atti

SOURCE: Dirt Devil Swivel Glide Platinum vacuum suction problem

Is the suction tubing in the head assembly clogged, is the belt broke? If the if the belt looks good the brush may be turned off and you may need to turn the brush switch on.

What kind of thermal fuse do i need for a Haan Si-35R steamer mop ?

Unfortunately, I don't have specific information on the Haan Si-35R steamer mop, including details about its thermal fuse. However, I can provide you with some general guidance on thermal fuses.
A thermal fuse is a safety device that interrupts the flow of electricity in case of overheating. They are typically designed to be non-resettable and need to be replaced if they are triggered. Here are some steps you can take to determine the type of thermal fuse needed for your steamer mop:
1. **Check the Manual:**
Refer to the user manual or any documentation that came with your Haan Si-35R steamer mop. The manual may contain information about the thermal fuse, its specifications, and where to obtain a replacement.
2. **Inspect the Existing Thermal Fuse:**
If the thermal fuse in your steamer mop has blown, you can inspect the fuse itself for any markings or labels that indicate its specifications. Note down any information such as voltage, current, and temperature rating.
3. **Contact the Manufacturer:**
Reach out to Haan customer support or the manufacturer to inquire about the specific thermal fuse needed for your model. They may be able to provide you with the exact specifications or recommend a suitable replacement.
4. **Measure the Fuse:**
If you have the technical expertise and the necessary tools, you can measure the dimensions of the existing thermal fuse and check its electrical specifications. Be cautious and ensure the device is unplugged before attempting any measurements.
5. **Professional Assistance:**
If you're uncertain about the replacement process or lack the technical knowledge, consider seeking assistance from a professional appliance repair service. They may have access to replacement parts and can ensure the correct installation.
When replacing a thermal fuse, it's crucial to use a fuse with the same or equivalent specifications to maintain the safety and proper functioning of the appliance. Using an incorrect or incompatible thermal fuse can pose a safety risk.
Keep in mind that the availability of replacement parts may vary, and it's essential to obtain the correct part for your specific model. Always prioritize safety and, if in doubt, consult with the manufacturer or a qualified technician.

What? I have a Dirt. Devil easy steam carpet shampooed model CE 6300 HD. It was working great and then just stopped spraying out cleanser/water! Is there a manual or does anyone know how fix this problem?

Hello! You may need to prime the trigger to get the solution to start flowing. To do this, recline the handle and pump the trigger about 30 times. Then, turn the cleaner on and hold the trigger in for 30 seconds. The solution should begin to dispense. Be sure you are only using the cleaning products specified for use with this unit. Hope this helps! If you still need assistance feel free to reach out to use here on Fixya, Facebook.com/dirtdevil or Twitter @DirtDevil.

HAAN floor steamer won't heat up

It is likely the thermal fuse which is there to prevent an issue if the unit gets to hot. Once they blow, they have to be replaced. You have to take the unit apart, which is a moderate challenge. It it attached to what looks like ceramic where the heater is. On my unit, it was toward back under where the handle is. It is held on the wire with small clips. Once removed, look at the heat rating and it is cheap and easy to buy new ones on line. I purchased a pack of four for about $5.00. Just clip in a replacement and it should work.

it is easy to test the thermal fuse. Simply use a simple electronic meter and see if it has continuity. It should normally pass current, if it doesn't, then it is blown and needs to be replaced.

almost all small appliances that heat up have thermal protection fuses and it is often the cause of an appliance that does not heat up and longer. I fixed a coffee maker by replacing the thermal fuse as well.

Steamer has quit steaming. I have not used distilled water (didn't know I was suppose to. It seams to be stopped up.

Any device that actually makes steam should use distilled water. You are boiling away the water to make steam. Everything in the water that is not water will remain in your 'boiler'. So, what to do now ... treat it with vinegar. Vinegar should disolve the minerals left in your boiler.

Thanks for your question @ FixYa.com

May not be your exact model but should be similar.

The Bissel vacuums include an internal thermal protector to protect it from overheating. When the thermal protector activates, the cleaner will stop running. Should this happen proceed as follows:

1. Turn the cleaner OFF and unplug from electrical outlet.

2. Check the Pre-Motor Filter and Post-Motor Filter for dirt accumulation.

3. Remove any clogs.

4. When the vacuum is unplugged and motor cools for approximately 30 minutes, the thermal protector should automatically resets and cleaning may continue.

5. If the thermal protector continues to activate after following the above steps, your cleaner may need servicing. Call Bissell Customer Service:

There's a thermal fuse inside. If it gets too hot, the fuse will blow and the thing won't turn on.
It has a 216 C temp limit. You can find thermal fuses at radio shack for less than 5$. If you're adventurous enough, you can find the fuse in line of a white wire under a fiberglass outer and heat shrink inner shielding screwed against the bottom of the tank.
