Hi Alec from VacuumSpot here. In Australia these are sold as the ergo rapido. The most likely culprit is the charger itself we sell loads of Electrolux Ergo Rapido Chargers basically the best bet is to measure the output of the charger to see if it is working properly (watch video) if it isnt then simply replace the charger. If it is then replace the vacuum handset - Electrolux have made the handsets real cheap so you dont have to do a repair on battery or motor.

SOURCE: Roller/sweeper on my Electrolux Pronto

After 3 years my Pronto slowed down and needed new batteries. I just replaced all 8 internal batteries. It cost just under $30 with shipping and took 1 hour of soldering. If you're not handy with a soldering iron, don't attempt it. All of the batteries are soldered together in series. You need to order the 8 (4/5 Sc size, 2000 mAh) Nickel metal hydride (Ni-MH) batteries with tabs. The source I used was www.BatteryJunction.com. Here's a link to the battery page: http://www.batteryjunction.com/tenergy-45th-sc-1-2-2000-tabs.html

PS The vac now runs GREAT!

SOURCE: Electrolux Pronto 2-in-1: Looking for a part

There is no replacement for the dust container in these units. You would have to get an entire handvac which costs more then a full unit.

My Electrolux Rapido wet&dry won't start. The battery is empty and the blue light flashes when I plug in the charger.

this sounds totally silly but is the power button on the vacuum actually off? Had the same problem, where the battery was completely empty i didn't know my son had switched the vacuum on put it on charge and the light was flashing. I took it off the charging stand pressed the power button then put it back....now charging perfectly. Anyone who doesnt have this appliance will think you sound stupid but its just a clicky button so visually the button looks the same on or off.

No, not worn out batteries.
For my experience, if the batteries were worn, they would charge with the blue led being on and after that, the vacuum wouldn't hold his charge. just that.
This is a different problem. Check the contacts between the charging station and the vacuum, mines got bent a bit and stopped making contact. This has happened twice and just fixed it about 30 min ago. That is why the led first lights and then goes off, there was just a brief contact between them.
Nice vacuum, very powerful and handy but maybe it is just poorly made as it is engineered in Sweden but built in China.

How do I know if it is charging

On your stand there are blue lights that show when it is charging the vacuum. If plugged up with out the vacuum on the base the lights do not show. Once you set the Vacuum on the base the blue lights indicate that it is charging.

The blue lights on the charger base for the pronto stick vac go out after about 5 seconds and the vacuum is not working. What do I do?

check that the contacts are connecting and are clean of debris. If they are you can check the charging plug to confirm it is putting out 15v if not replace the charging plug. this is a common problem. you can get parts online at http://www.vacpartswarehouse.com/Electrolux-EL1000B-BZ-Pronto-Stick-Vac-s/3734.htm?gclid=CKDFg_3Jv7kCFc4-Mgody1wAjg

I just wanted Electrolux to know that this is the Pronto 2-1 is the worst product I ever purchased. I thought after I received the new battery because of the recall it would work.
When I was going to purchase the stick broom I was going to get the Shark but because I knewElectrolux was a good name in products I decided to purchase the Electrolux which I truly regret because it was just a waste of money

Not charging. Lights up momentarily, then goes out

Sounds like it. How long have you had the vacuum? That's one of the draw backs of wireless vacuums. On top of providing less than adequate suction, the batteries have poor life spans. I suggest you go back to where you purchased it from and see if they can help you with a new battery
