SOURCE: Full bag system works properly, but doesn't reset easily

Either there is something wrong with your switch. Which it doesnt sound like it. Take it to your dealer or call another one it sounds like the control valve needs to be replaced. I am a dealer 1-866-966-9350.

SOURCE: Bag full indication comes on; changed bag; still wont run.

Turn the knob on the top of the vacuum all the way to the right and try it again

SOURCE: My electrolux vac shut off for a full bag. After

If the suggestion that renevacdoc did not work, it is most likely that your valve assembly(full bag control) has gone bad and needs to be replaced. You will have to take your vac to the Aerus/Electrolux dealer/service store for repair.

My electrolux vacuum cleaner?

Sometimes the bag isn't installed properly.
Try removing the bag and replace with a new one making sure that the bag is in the bag compartment squarely on all four corners thus covering the bag door switch. Close lid and try again.
Hope that helps!

What do the symbols and dial settings mean on the electrolux diplomat lx

Symbols..Question mark means "Put a bag in me", checkered light means : "Change me, I'm dirty"....pre-lit power light means: "You have Powaaa" to the unit and the thermostat light means the motor is too hot if it comes on, (most likely from a hose clog) and needs to cool down before the motor will run again. The settings on the control valve basically have to do with the auto shutoff when the bag needs changed. The lower the valve is turned, the more full the bag will get until it shuts off. Hope that helps!

Hi there,

Try a simple method. When chabging the bad suck in a couple pieces of kleenex in. This will coat the inside of the bag and prevent the pores from clogging up making the vacuum think the bag is full. If this doesn't help email me [email protected] I I will go through how to disconnect this feature

Electrolux diplomat power switch won't depress. One minute it was working, the next it wasn't. When I try to press the button, it doesn't feel like I'm making a connection. The Empty Bag light came on when...

The power switch has failed if it wont depress. As for the change bag light, its a little tube that measures airflow. If it gets clogged up it can issue a faulty code. Its best left to a vac shop to fix the check bag light. Depending on how handy you are the power switch isn't too bad to replace. I recommend searching youtube or consulting the vac expert collective of vacuumland.org.

How to reset?

The button I think you are talking about is the bag switch. It is located in the bottom right corner where you put the bag. If the bag does not cover it, the machine will not run.
Also, when the machine cuts off when the bag is full, you have to push the power switch off and back on to reset the full bag switch located in the switch control housing inside the machine.

Vacuum won't stay on

When you open the canister you eill see a little rubber hole that senses when your bag is full. This must be clogged. If you have another vac try to vacume all the dusr from this hole and any other opening inside the vacume that you can reach. I hope this helps. Don't forget to rate this answer.

Electrolux Epic 6500SR Full Bag sensor working, Does not Reset properly

The problem was a sticking switch that was not being reset. The vacuum on/off switch mechanism is comprised of two switches. One is the main switch that turns the vacuum on and off. The second is a shut off switch that gets tripped when the full bag sensor is engaged. This second switch is supposed to get reset when you push the on/off switch on the outside of the machine. The full bag shutoff switch was stiff and it, therefore, was taking a couple of presses of the on/off switch to move the shutoff switch back into the running position.
