Possible Causes
Dislodged tilt or impact sensor on main PCB, Cracked main control board, Loose internal connector after impact, Firmware error triggered by sensor out of range
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Remove the battery pack before inspecting for physical damage.
- External inspection: Check the housing for cracks, gaps, or misaligned panels. If the body is visibly damaged, internal components may be compromised.
- Reset attempt: Remove the battery for 5 minutes, then reinstall and try powering on again to clear transient sensor errors.
- Listen for loose parts: Gently shake the vacuum (without battery) and listen for rattling that could indicate a broken sensor or PCB fragment.
- Do not continue use if damaged: If E9 persists and the unit was dropped, internal safety sensors may be disabled. Continued use could be unsafe.
- Service recommendation: Have the main body inspected and the control PCB or sensor module replaced by a qualified technician.
