Did you ever figure out what was causing it? I’m having the same problem. Dissembled and throughly cleaned, but still spins for a few seconds and stops/red light.

SOURCE: brush roll won't turn on

Atthe bottom of the vacuuam are screws to take off...two of them are near the rear wheel assembly....two of them are behind the front mini wheels (just pry the front mini wheels so that they pop out...they pop back in)
Remove all of the screws. Remove the bottom from the top..they come apart in two pieces. Ceck the belt on the bottom piece. Slide the roller out starting from the end opposite from the motor end. With the roller off, slacken the the belt so that it misses the gear on the motor (you will have to hold it with your hand). Plug in the vacuum. Turn the power on to the roller on position. The motor should work and the green light should be on. If the motor doesn't work, then it is defective. If it does work, turn off, unplug and shoot the gear and the two ends of the roller with WD-40. reassemble. good luck.

I have the shark rotator lift away almost new, only used a few times, i inspected the small blk belt it is still tight, everything else seems good, brush is new why wont the brush spin ?

Does everyone understand there is switch or button that controls the rotating brush? Brushes stop spinning automatically when vacuum cleaner is in the UPRIGHT POSITION.
Because now you should be using the hose and attachments

HELP!!!! I have a shark rotator lift away vacuum that the brush will not spin, the belt is intact and it just won't spin what is wrong ?? I tried resetting the button on the outlet bt not the proble

Hello, this is Ava with Think Crucial.

There are a number of reasons why your brush roller has stopped moving. General maintenance to your vacuum is crucial and will help it work at peak performance.

First things first lets focus on the brush roller. Unplug the vacuum and turn it on its side. Look for any noticeable clumps of debris or hair strands that may be caught in the brush roller. Remove these obstructions, probably best to do so with a scissor if it's hair or long pieces of carpet fibers. After removing the debris try manually rotating the brush roller to uncover other hidden clogs. Another thing to take note of is the condition of the bristles on the roll itself. Are they loose or worn down? These are signs that your brush roller is in need of replacing.

While checking out your brush roll you might as well take a look at your vacuums belt. Your belt should be replaced about every three months. After regular usage, the belt will stretch out, lessening the tension on the brush roller. Lesser tension diminishes the brush roller's turn rate and speed. If the belt feels loose then it certainly is affecting your vacuums suction as well as your brush roll not moving at all.

The brush roller has stopped spinning and all the hair has been removed, how do I fix it?

Hey this is Jim with Crucial Vacuum,

If there's no noticeable debris on the brush roll try manually rotating it to help unearth any hidden clogs behind it. Take note of the condition of the bristles while you're doing this. If they look worn down, or loose then its time to replace your brush roll.

Check your vacuums belt as well. Overtime your belt will stretch and loose resistance. This could lead to the brush roll no longer turning. Be sure your belt is on nice and tight to ensure optimal performance. Your belt should be changed every 3 to 6 months depending on usage.

Hey Kathy this is Jim with Crucial Vacuum,

Chances are if you've cleaned out all of the debris by your Sharks brushroll and its still not spinning that means there's an issue with your belt.

On average you should change your belt every 3 months. After a while the belt will loose tension and stretch and in most cases the brush roll will stop spinning completely.

My Shark rotator is very hard to push at times, easy at other times. What makes it hard to push and how do I fix it?

Does it have a "brushes" lowering/higher switch?
Normally due to brushes being too low in particular on deep pile carpets??
check the actual fixings for the rotating brushes are ok and the brush not simply need "clicking" back into place?
