If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Overheating motor triggering thermal cutout, Blocked filters, Loose internal power connector, Failing thermal protector

Safety: Unplug and allow the unit to cool fully.

Clean airflow path: Clean all filters and check for blockages in the suction path.
Inspect connectors: Open the housing and check that all power connectors are tight, especially at the motor and control board.
Thermal protector: If the motor is not excessively hot but still cuts out, the thermal protector may be weak and should be replaced along with or as part of the motor assembly.
Usage: Avoid covering ventilation openings and do not run the unit continuously beyond recommended duty cycles.
