How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug immediately; a stalled motor can overheat and cause fire.

  • 1. Identify humming source
    • With the unit unplugged, open the housing and locate the motor or pump that may be jammed.
  • 2. Check for obstructions
    • Inspect the suction motor fan and pump impeller for debris.
    • Remove any foreign objects carefully.
  • 3. Test rotation
    • Try turning the motor or pump shaft by hand; it should rotate smoothly.
    • If seized, replace the affected component.
  • 4. PCB and indicator repair
    • If motors run after clearing jams but lights remain off, the indicator circuit on the PCB may be damaged and require replacement.
