My Bosch vacuum won't start

is there a little button (reset) on the motor? did it work one day and not the next or did it die when using?

It could be a short somewhere, it could be the carbon brushes in the motor need replaced.

You can try doing this first, plug it in to your outlet and switch it on. If it will not start, try to move the wire near the plug to see if the problem is a lose wire in that area. If it responds in moving the wire you have to replace the plug of your vacuum. Message me if you need further assistance. Thanks..

1) test the belt +brush for worn and replace
2) test the motor
God bless you

Yes your right motor burnt out. They can be replaced as I work for company who repaired vacuums. Try godfreys or some electric shop.

Hi its Darran at Dyson.

If the machine had been left overnight and then would not switch on the next day, then this sounds as though there may be a problem with the switch or the motor.

un plug,reach under and turn the brush roller by hand a few times.then plug it back in.if it starts then the motor is going bad or the armature has corosion on it and not making contact.i have cleaned the armature with a piece of fine emery cloth and it worked fine but i don't know if you want to tackle that,i hope i was some help to you please leave feedback

Give the prongs a wiggle and see if there is any play in them.Might just be a plug end.

It sounds like you have a motor protection fuse that resets after an overheat/cooling cycle.These work the same as a circuit breaker in your house with the difference being they can reset themselves.The Bosch will also shut down if there is insufficient airflow and I would check your filters first.1) Pull the filter and let the machine run.Do not pick up debris when you operate without a filter-it will be drawn straight into the motor.If it runs fine without shutting down, all you need to do is change your filter.If it shuts down again check the external hose for any blockages.Also check the throat from the powerhead for any blockages.If you continue to have the same problem then you will need to replace the fuse because at this point you have eliminated all the other likely problems.Good Luck-Scott

your repairman missed the thermal fuse in the motor compartment
