Filter Queen Recent Questions, Troubleshooting Help & Support

Is there power at the head, have you checked with a volt meter, most likely if not then the cord to the head is defective.

I had a simular probleme with my older model filter queen vac and it turned out to be worn brushes on the motor I simply ordered new ones installed them and then and all it costs was 15.00 usd to canada probably less in U.S. go to this site you'll find all you need there. www.lighthouseenterprises.us

Does it smell like burning plastic or burning rubber? Regardless, turn it over and take off bottom plate as if you were changing the belt and examine where it’s coming from. You will see obvious signs of friction with the belt or brush roller rubbing against an object. Sometimes a foreign object will get stuck causing this problem.

There should bve a notch at the end of the wand that attaches to the power head. This is a button. Push UT in tgeb pull the wand out.

Take it to your local vac shop for repair

Excuse me, are you really asking how to use a vib rator now? I think it will be hard to explain in words, may be you'd better watch the video? I would share one with you, but I am afraid I will be immediately blocked at this source. Please check this review https://toorefined.com/ , I am sure it will be rather informating.

Here is the link to the user manual; http://www.filterqueen.com/pdf/defender.pdf Hope this helps :)

When the red light is blinking, press and hold both up and down arrows until the red light blinks RAPIDLY, release both for a second or two, and press and hold both again until it stops blinking. It cured my problem.

Did you find an answer to your orange light question? I have an AM4000 defender that I bought off Craigslist and thought I got a good deal on it. One minute after turning it on the red light came on. I tried to reset it but  the red light won't flash so you can't reset it. I don't know if it's a filter problem or a circuit board problem and I don't want to spend $100 bucks on filters to find out it's a different problem. If you buy filters on e-bay, they're cheaper but if you spend $100 from a distributor then you reactivate the warranty. I'm sorry I bought it.

no with the red lite on it mean that you need to change your filter its a safety feature so you dont burn out your motor and also so you dont blow unpurified air through out your home

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess you want the Defender model and not the Majestic model. I believe the latter is a vacuum. Here's a link to the Defender 360 manual. Best of luck.

The light is a reminder to change the filter, it does not sense if the filter has been changed or not.
When the red light is blinking, press and hold both up and down arrows until the red light blinks RAPIDLY, release both for a second or two, and press and hold both again until it stops blinking.
