Filter Queen majestic vacuum power roller brush smells like burning plastic
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.
Position of rubber edge
When I took apart my vacuum it was hard to fit, but after making sure all the dirt was gone, and made sure it was in the grooves before I screwed the screws in the power head it fit pretty well.
My canister motor shuts off after a few minutes and a red light comes on
hat's the thermal cut off circuit. If the motor gets to hot it trips and shuts it off. When it cools down it will turn on again but it is generally an indicator of one of the following; the cone filter needs changed or the inner filter ring that sits above the motor inside the unit is shot. One is an easy change the other requires dis-assembly, better carried out by a vac tech if you aren't comfortable taking it apart. In the meantime remove the cap out of the top of the vacuum, that will let it exhaust heat better but I strongly recommend getting that filter ring changed.

Beater bar makes excessive noise
Mine was making loud noises too. ratcheting sound. Probably the beater bar has dirt and garbage. I was told to take it out and give it a good cleaning, and check the belt too. I know I had a clog in the upper part of the power. It seemed to help for a short time.
My powerhead shuts off after about 15 seconds of running. It will turn on again after a brief rest. What could be causing this?
sounds like it's overheating and tripping the breaker. When it shuts down try pressing the little red breaker button. Could be a restriction of the rotating brush or a short in the extension connector. Remove the bottom plate and visually check for a cord or string wound up in the rotating brush mechanism and check the extension tube and flex tube for obstructions... Try the head without the wand by just connecting it directly to the flex tube and see if this makes it work without shutting off. I'm betting on something binding the roller brush and causing it to overheat...
There is no power to my Filter Queen power nozzle. I have cleaned the connection and there is still nothing.
There is an electrical connection at the canister end and again at the beater end. If the beater is not working it is mostly that this is where you problem is. You need to test first to see if there is power at the canister end and then at the beater end. If there is no power at the canister it could be the outlet or something internal. If there is no power at the beater end then that outlet, or the cord could be the problem. If you have power and that end then the problem is likely within the wiring in the beater or in the motor itself
Filter queen vacuum head has no power
More information needed. When you turn on the vacuum do you hear the motor running? Is the problem that there is no suction at the head? Is there suction at the canister when the hose is removed? I would first check to make sure that there is no obstruction in the hose. Have you checked the filters to see if they are clean?
