Possible Causes

Brushroll clogged with hair, Worn brushroll bristles, Blocked nozzle intake, Damaged nozzle base plate or squeegee

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Remove the battery and detach the floor nozzle before servicing.

Steps to try:

  • Clean brushroll: Remove the brushroll and cut away hair and fibers. Ensure the bristles are not matted down.
  • Inspect base plate: Check the bottom plate and front squeegee or lip for warping or damage. A bent plate can prevent proper pickup.
  • Clear nozzle intake: Look into the nozzle's suction opening and remove any lodged debris.
  • Replace worn brushroll: If bristles are significantly worn or uneven, replace the brushroll with a Eureka-compatible part.
