Possible Causes
Faulty motor speed sensor (Hall sensor) on Parkside motor, Loose motor connector on main PCB, Damaged wiring harness between motor and PCB, Failed speed control IC on PCB
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Remove the battery pack before opening the housing.
- Reset: Remove the battery for 1 minute, then reinsert and test. Sometimes the control logic can latch an error.
- Check connectors: Open the motor housing and locate the motor connector on the main PCB. Ensure it is fully seated and that no pins are bent or corroded.
- Inspect wiring: Follow the wiring harness from the motor to the PCB. Look for pinched, cut, or burnt wires, especially near hinge points or tight bends.
- Test in single mode: If the vacuum runs reliably in low mode but fails in high, the speed feedback circuit or Hall sensor may be defective, requiring motor replacement.
- PCB replacement: If wiring and motor appear intact but E5 persists, the speed control circuitry on the main PCB is likely faulty and the PCB should be replaced as a unit.
