Roll brush on the shark navigator lift awat

It could be a bad switch or brush roll motor, a broken belt, loose wire or contact. You must inspect and test all these areas to narrow down the cause.

just found this from another fixya member....There are a number of reasons why your brush roll has stopped spinning on your Shark Rotator. Here are a few things to check for when trying to fix your Shark.

First things first lets focus on the brush roll. Unplug the vacuum and turn it on its side. Look for any noticeable clumps of debris or hair strands that may be caught in the brush roll. Remove these obstructions, probably best to do so with a scissor if it's hair or long pieces of carpet fibers. After removing the debris try manually rotating the brush roll to uncover other hidden clogs. Another thing to take note of is the condition of the bristles on the roll itself. Are they loose or worn down? These are signs that your brush roll is in need of replacing.

While checking out your brush roll you might as well take a look at your vacuums belt. This could be the other reason why your brush roll has stopped spinning. Your belt should be replaced about every three months. After regular usage, the belt will stretch out, lessening the tension on the brush roll. Lesser tension diminishes the brush rolls turn rate and speed. If the belt feels loose then it certainly is effecting your vacuums suction as well as your brush roll not moving at all.

Hello, this is Ava with Think Crucial.

If your the brushroll is not moving there could be several problems

Firstly, the motor may be the problem. If you hear any noises while the machine is running, you should contact the original manufacturer for troubleshooting solutions.

Secondly, your vacuum may be in need of new parts. By changing either the brush roll or belts, you should be able to increase the quality of the suction.

HI, it's Jim from Crucial Vacuum!

If your Shark NV350 vacuum is making loud noises when switched to carpet then there are a few parts of your vacuum you can check to resolve the problem.

First thing let's check your vacuums canister. The idea is to prevent clogs and anything that will obstruct your vacuum from operating properly, and running smoothly without noise. You'll want to empty your canister after every use.

Secondly, let's check out your brush roll. Is there hair wrapped around the roll itself, or any noticeable debris that would prevent the brush roll from turning? If so remove it and manually rotate the brush roll to help unearth any hidden clogs behind the roll.

While you're examining your vacuums brush roll take a look at the belt as well. If the belt isn't wrapped around the brush roll properly this could be causing the noise. The belt should have a good bit of tension on it in order for the brush roll to turn properly. Your vacuums belt should be replaced roughly every 3 months. So be sure it's on properly and has a good bit of tension.

HI, it's Jim from Crucial Vacuum!

If your Shark Navigator vacuum is only making a strange noise when the brush roll is turning then the two things to consider and examine would be the brush roll itself as well as the belt.

First off lets look at the brush roll itself. Right off the bat is there any noticeable debris caught in it? You're mainly looking for long carpet fibers, or even strands of hair? If so try using a scissor to cut the blockage away. Then, manually rotate the brush roll to uncover further clogs. When examining your brush roll take note of the condition of the bristles. Are they loose? If so this would be a good time to change your brush roll entirely. There should be two screws holding the plate onto your Shark Navigator. Use a screw driver to remove these screws to gain access to the brush roll and belt.

The second part to check would be your Shark Navigator's belt. With use the belt will stretch out, lessening the tension on the brush roll. Lesser tension diminishes the brush roller's turn rate and speed. So if your belt feels loose as well replace that. A general rule would be that you're going to want to replace your belt about every 6 months. And if your belt is really loose this could be causing a noise when your brush roll is active.

HI, it's Jim from Crucial Vacuum!

If your Shark Navigator Lift-Away Vacuum is making a loud noise while it's on then there's definitely a clog somewhere. Here' s a few places you should check prior to plugging in the vacuum and turning it on.

The first place to check would be the brush roll and belt. If you notice visible debris, like strands of hairs, or long carpet fibers this could be catching on the brush roll and causing it not to turn fully. Be sure to clear this debris from the brush roll and manually spin the brush roll a few times after you do so to help unearth and any other clogs. This may be the reason for the noise and its crucial that this part of your vacuum is clog free.

Another part of your vacuum to check would be your hose. Detach the hose and stretch it out as much as you can to see if any debris or clumps of dust are stuck inside. Using a broom handle can help if you see a clog, but it won't come out after you've stretched out the hose.

Another big factor would be a dirty filter in your vacuum. Most manufacturers recommend you change your filter on average every 3-6 months. However, it is recommended to change your filter even earlier depending on usage and allergy care. The cleaner your filters the less debris will get stuck in your vacuum, causing less clogs and overall less odd noises while vacuuming.
