How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF the vacuum and remove the battery before inspecting.

  • Step 1 – Compare with and without attachments: Run the vacuum briefly with no attachments. If noise is much louder with a specific tool, that tool may be damaged.
  • Step 2 – Check for rattles: Gently shake the vacuum body (battery removed) and listen for loose parts. Loose screws or broken plastic can cause rattling.
  • Step 3 – Inspect for cracks and gaps: Look for separation in the motor housing seams. Impacts can open gaps that increase noise.
  • When to stop: If the loud noise comes from the motor area and is accompanied by vibration or burning smell, the Camry digital motor assembly likely needs replacement.
