Electrolux Vacuums - Page 9 - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support

This is usually an indication that the motor is going bad. Motors in central vacuum systems are very easy to replace. Most motors can be purchased online.

I assume that you are talking about the power head for cleaning carpets. If so I have a spare.

You need to have the vacuum cleaned out. If you are good with tools, just remove the motor and fans assembly, take the fans off and wash them. Brush ALL dirt out of the housing and reassemble. Your Electrolux dealer can do this but it isn't cheap. I used to be the service manager for my area. Since it isn't under warranty, you can have ANY reliable vacuum cleaner shop give a good cleanout. NEVER put anything into the cleaner to make it smell good. Electrolux cleaners get their power by having a straight through suction. The air goes through the motor. Adding smelly things can crystallize onto the motor and burn it out.

The back won't come off until the top and bottom of the case are separated. This is a job that should only be done by an authorized Aerus Electrolux service tech. You may be try to save money by doing it yourself, but it's not worth the potential problems that could lead to. Improper reassembly can and often does result in more being spent in the long run.
Since disassembly of Aerus and pre-Aerus Electrolux vacuums is proprietary information, it shouldn't be posted on the web.
I know this isn't helpful, but it's the best I can do.

make sure you have bags or you need to check if the motor or anything is clogged or needs fixing

If the bag full light keeps coming on, you can first try adjusting the dial on top of the vacuum cleaner. If that does not work, then you need to change the control valve. This is an internal component of the canister and is directly below the dial. You will need to follow the instructions on a previous post to open the Electrolux plastic canister vacuum, and remove the bage cage. Once you remove the bage cage you can change the control valve, and this will solve your problem with the bag full indicator.

Hi you need to find a local Vacuum repair place one that deals in Electrolux, and go there and take the vacuum or the make and model, and ask for a replacement part, that is the only way that you would be able to obtain spare parts, in fact while you are there, perhaps even inquire as to how much it may cost to do it? ask for a "Quote" and go from there.

Electrolux does not make their service manuals available to the general public or non-Electrolux service personnel.<br /> It

Just about any vac shop should have the belt. This belt is the same belt used in the upright vacs as well as the power nozzels. The new oem part number is 48359.

Check the afterfilter. If it's dirty it can cause this. Try turning the vacuum on with the filter off.
If this doesn't help, the problem is probably with the Control Valve Assembly, or a tube connecting to it. This is the part that the dial connects to. The tubes often get clogged and need cleaned periodically, especially if generic ("made to fit") bags are used. The CVA itself may also be worn out or broken.
For cleaning, repair, or replacement, the vacuum needs to be taken to the nearest authorized Aerus Electrolux store. The service tech should also do a thorough cleaning and, at your request, preventive maintenance on the vacuum.

I assume you're referring to the 1590 Aerus Electrolux Central vacuum? if so,and you're sure it's not a "breaker" issue at your breaker box and the reset doesn't work, chances are either the relay board inside needs replaced or more often, the motor itself if it's over 15 yrs. old. This is normal for motor replacement. I do replace them for my customers. Hope that helps!

I have no idea just what reverse suction would be or how to get it from ANY vac. If you're looking at getting the blowing air from the vac instead of suction, then simply move the hose from the suction end to the exhaust end.

You don't. This motor is not designed to come apart, not even by Electrolux service techs. The whole motor has got to be replaced.

Have them replace at the Aerus Electrolux shop. Aerus uses a higher grade plastic (Lexan, read about it on the net) which should last the life of the the power nozzle and wands. The part and labor will have a 1 year warranty.

You may have a colg in your hose, try blowing it out.

Assuming you mean a genuine Aerus Electrolux canister vacuum, the "full bag" light comes on when the bag needs changed. If that doesn't work, the gauge on the top needs removed and serviced or replaced. Hope that helps! Thanks!
