20 Most Recent Electrolux Lux 7000 Bagged Canister Vacuum - Page 4 Questions & Answers

Some manufactures, like electrolux have to bring in parts from overseas, making lead times a real issue. I do understand your frustrations, as this is something I deal with every day. BUT there is hope... I am including a link to Electrolux's web site, and a dealer locater, try putting in your zip code, and possibly zip codes for cities that you wouldn't mind traveling to.

I hope this helps.

Make sure the bag is in place correctly. The question mark light indicates that there isn't a bag in the machine. There is a small button in the front of the bag housing that is depressed by the cardboard top of the bag. I think it is located in the bottom right hand of the bag housing if you are facing the front of the machine. Make sure the bag is depressing this actuator when the front of the machine is closed. If it is, it may be an internal problem with the switch. Good Luck!!

Turn the dial down to its least sensitive setting and try that. If not you can call my office at 570-326-1731

Is there any suction when the hose is connected? You may try connecting the hose to the blower part (which is whre the exhaust filter is) and turn the machine on. If not take it to your dealer.

i would call electrolux and ask them its free the number should be located on the vacuum some were.

hope this helps:)

i would say it is over heating but some times you cant tell because electrolux have a sensor so when the get hot the turn off till they gool down soo if you really like the vacuum get it look at by a vacuum repair man.

hope this helps

screw driver and a hammer just hit the plastic ban out no problem it just has a plastic lock..

There should be some screws that you remove from the bottom. Then pry up from the back and the top should come off.

use a screwdriver to pry up one end. there's a little nubbie that snaps into the canister, then its just a matter of pulling the strip off.
the back part with the rewind has two snaps on top internally. use a screwdriver to pry the back part down and out both sides and the rewind will come out.

The whine tells you taht the bearings are bad. Now they may be putting a drag on the armature and causing it to shut down after getting hot. You will have to replace the motor.

Some of these, the strip on each side, in the middle, slide off, then the 2 halfs will separate. They only slide in one direction and some are hard to get off.

What model do you have?

If the wires power a motor then it shouldn't actually matter as the motor is AC which has no polarity.

hey just thought you might like to know that I have been given an answear on the same problem log in to get the info. Now I just need to know how to open it without breaking it!

There is an area on the back of the tank where you will see lines, put your thumb there and pull the top half of the tank towards yourself. That should open the machine so you can replace your after filter.

This will happen if the bags are either incorrectly fitted or are non genuine bags that are not within the tollerance, size wise, for the machine.

Check the motor compartment to clean out dust if needed, motor brushes, relay and filters. It's a good idea to service your power nozzle once a year too.

See position of switch in the manual. It may possible, mains wires are sort that is by passing switch. Use Of Standard Attachments; Operation - Electrolux 2100 Instructions Manual [Page 6] ' ManualsLib

normally the battery gives up in this vacuum cleaners through my experience

confirm the charger first
use a voltage tester to check the voltage coming from the charger

the voltage will read from 12volts to 18 volts
depending you vacuum model.


If you the voltage is present then the battery is dead.
