Groupe SEB Intermittent Power Connection

Vacuum turns off intermittently when moved or tilted.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

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

Possible Causes

Loose battery latch, Worn battery contacts, Cracked solder joints on battery connector PCB, Damaged internal wiring

Safety: Remove the battery before inspection.

Check battery fit: Insert the battery and ensure it clicks firmly. If it feels loose, inspect the latch mechanism for wear or damage.
Clean contacts: Wipe the battery and handle contacts with a dry cloth.
Movement test: With the unit running (and under safe control), gently tap the handle and wiggle the battery. If it cuts out, the connection is intermittent.
Resolution: Replace the battery if its contacts are worn, or have the handle connector PCB repaired or replaced.
