Possible Causes
Completely failed battery pack, Faulty charger, Blown internal fuse on main PCB, Broken power wiring or connector
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the charger from mains before inspection.
Steps:
- Test outlet and charger: Verify the wall outlet works with another device. Check the Hoover charger LED when plugged in without the vacuum; some models show a standby light.
- Check charger on battery (if removable): Attach the charger directly to the battery. If no lights appear on charger or battery, suspect the charger or battery.
- Try another charger or battery: If possible, test with a known-good Hoover charger or battery to isolate the fault.
- Inspect battery contacts: Look for bent or recessed contacts on the vacuum and battery. Clean gently with a dry cloth.
If still dead: The main PCB, internal fuse, or wiring is likely faulty. These require disassembly and electrical testing; contact a Hoover service center.
