Brushes wont spin on the
V124 /124a. Brushes not spinning. A clicking noise can sometimes be heard with this fault. It is likely that the brush drive unit has developed a fault. For the adventurous it is quite straightforward to repair. Ensure the machine is unplugged from the power supply and remove the tanks. Place the machine down on the floor and remove the brush bar.

Remove the bottom cover that is over the beater brush by removing 6 or 7 screws. That will expose the beater brush which will most likely be held on by two screws and a bracket. Remove the beater and loop the belt around the grooved side and around the drive pin. Put back together and done.
Why is vax s7-a+steam mop steamer dripping water and cuts on and off
I managed to fix mine after a little effort. It was blocked well up in the nozzle into a small pinhole where the steam comes out of the 'small kettle' in the steam mop.
To fix:
- take the blue side bit off by unscrewing the two small screws
- Undo the screws inside (there are about 11)
- Once these were undone there was two screws holding the nozzle cover.
- After unscrewing these pull the nozzle cover of and scrape limescale from inside the small hole where the steam comes out
- Put it all back together and it should work much better
You should only really do this if you are competent as there are lots of wires etc. and if your steam mop is not covered under warranty as messing around with it will void this.
Hope this helps :)
Vax vacuum cleaner. Lead pulled out too far and now it won't switch on. Lead is retracting o.k.
Check the fuse in the plug 1st, but you may have ripped the wire/s from inside the hover out of there connector. If you are able to, you may be able to take the hoover apart and reconnect the wires, if you feel this is something you are not happy with doing you may be able to take it to a repair shop! If its still under warranty you may be able to take it back and get it replaced?
