Possible Causes
Damaged battery-to-handle contacts, Broken internal power wire, Failed main power relay or MOSFET on PCB, Trigger switch not closing circuit
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Remove the battery before inspecting contacts.
- Inspect contacts: Check the metal contacts on the battery and inside the handle for bending, burning, or corrosion. Clean gently with a dry cloth.
- Test with another battery: If available, try a second compatible battery. If the vacuum still does not start, the fault is in the handle.
- Check trigger feel: Ensure the trigger clicks and returns properly.
- Professional repair: Internal power path faults require PCB or wiring harness replacement. Arrange service or replace the main handheld body.
