It may take a while to cool and reset. If ity has been over an hour the thermal switch could be faulty.

Either your switch is not making a contact internally or the wire that runs from the motor to the switch is loose or not connected, or that speed is burned out on the motor. Those motors have a separate wire for each speed, so it's either not getting power to the motor from the switch or the that speed setting is burned out on the motor its self. I would just work around it and use the low or high setting until you can take it apart to test if the motor is getting power from the switch, if so then the motor is bad, usually the bearings go out on the motors before the wiring does. Unless your motor was on medium and was stopped for a long period and overheated that setting which will melt the wires and cause it to not work. They have a safety switch on the motors now to keep this from happening.

Check and see if there is a reset button for the vacuum head this trips sometime to protect the head motor. Also if the roller heads bind they can snap the belt if it is belt driven. If it is direct drive then I would look for the trip or reset button.

1. With the Car Off, Press and hold down the Odometer Trip Reset Button. 2. While still pressing the Trip Reset Button, Turn the Ignition Key half way on where all your oil, check engine lights etc.. turn on. Don't turn it as far as you would to normally start the car. Wait a few seconds and the Check engine light will turn off. 3. Turn the key back to the Off position and you're done.

Check the screen to make sure the plastic piece is depressing the switch at the bottom...the machine will not activate to on if this switch is not on..and depressed by the plastic piece on the Flair SCREEN.

You can try to get it to reset itself by doing the following:
Turn the Master ON/OFF Switch to OFF. Unplug the unit and leave unplugged for 12 - 15 minutes. Then plug the unit back in and turn the Master ON/OFF Switch to ON. Set the controls as you normally do. Hopefully, the 12 - 15 minute timeout, allowed the unit to reset itself.

Generally, this works 90% of the time. I hope it works for you.

Hello, in order for the humidifier to turn on and off with the furnace you need either a sail switch or current sensing relay. A sail switch mounts in the return air duct and senses the return air when the furnace turns on thus turning on the humidifier and turning it off when the airflow stops. A current sensing relay works the same way but instaed of sensing airflow in senses current on the blower motors common lead and is easier to install than a sail switch. I will post a pic of both

I believe you are right.

there may be a problem with fan motor,but i believe your problem may be the rotory switch that controlls voltage to fan motor,to check this pull knobs off front ,then remove filter from back,there are 4 screws in bottom of case remove these,pull unit out carefully .there are 5 wires conected to unit ,two for fan 2 for on off switch,1 for ground just what wires go were,then disconnect wires from there posts,and pull unit out of box,find the two wires that go fan,snip wires that go to the circiut board leaving enough space to rewire after test get extention cord and snip off to make direct plug to fan to wall connect extention to the two wires from the fan motor and wire nut or tape so no short,pug extention cord into wall outlet if fan runs on a high rpm or max power,then your rotory switch is no good and you can install an external rotory switch on side of unit,if fan does not run any faster then your fan motor needs replaced,let me no if you need more help

Test the motor to see if it works. Make sure the motor is removed from the rest of the unit. To find out how to remove the unit please hit the "Go Back button and select the "How to remove the motor button"...

1. Plug the unit in to a working outlet.
   
2. Push the #1 speed button on top of the motor.
   
3. You now need to engage the saftey switch to start the motor.
   
4. Protruding from the motor are two plastic about 3-4 inch guiding arms.
   
5. Look inside the end of both of these two guiding arms. One of the arms are hollow and the other one has a white safety switch in the arm.
   
6. Use a pencil or small item to push in on the safety switch.
   
7. If the fan sarts to rotate the motor is still working.
   
8. If the fan does not rotate then the life of the motor has probably ended and a new motor is needed. ( insert motor part link)
