I have a Rainbow Vacuum, the red light has come on. Also the brush on the power head spins and stops, spins and stops....???

This is because your beater bar bearings or motor is going out. Check both. You can check them by rolling the stem of the motor with you finger to see if motor bearing is damaged. It should roll very smoothly.

Rainbow vacuum red light comes on and it won't work

Need more info. By not working do you mean the motor is not running, the beater bar is not turning or is the red light in the rainbow unit itself.

My rainbow E2 will run on High speed,but not the low speed.it's as if no power is getting to it,when.you try to switch it on low,but works fine on high

This could be one of two problems. It could be your switch is broken, preventing it from going to low speed. Try clicking it, does it still make a distinctive click sound, does it feel loose? If so it may be your switch: Rainbow e2 power switch
Otherwise if may be your computer in your E2 is starting to go bad. Often times if Rainbow stops going into one of the speeds it is due to a computer going bad. This is an expensive part and repair, so you should probably take it in and make sure it is the computer. Rainbow E2 controller 120v

Rainbow e2 will not power on no smell just turned itself off motor spins freely

Try turning it off and on a few times. They have a lot of trouble with the on/off switch.

My rainbow stopped working while im shampooing

If the water gets to high in the water pan, then the motor will start hitting it and will make it off balance. This will cause the motor to shut off to protect itself. Wait about an hour for the motor to reset.

Rainbow stops shortly after starting to vacuum

There is a thermal fuse on the motor field that sometimes fails. Sometimes the fuse does what it is supposed to do - prevents motor from overheating.
Causes:
a) Improperly worn motor brushes
b) bad motor bearings (that usually leads to uneven motor brush wear)
c) very dirty cooling air filter

To access filter and the motor - use small flat screwdriver to remove clear side panels. You will see 4 or 6 Phillips screws. Remove screws - cap will come off.

Good Luck,
Rocky

Power head has power but motor won't run

Circuit brealer switch may be bad, but the fact that Rainbow nozzle made this strange sound makes me think that it may have happened because there is something wrong with the motor.

While unplugged - remove the brush and belt. Try turning brush ends - see if they yurn easily... Try turning the motor shaft - see if it turns and if it does - if it turns smoothly and if makes any strange sounds...

To really test the motor you can just bypass the circuit breaker switch.
