Possible Causes

Jammed mini motorized brush, Shorted accessory motor, Damaged accessory PCB, Excessive hair wrapped around accessory roller

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Remove the battery and detach the accessory before working on it.

  • Clean the accessory: Remove the roller from the mini motorized tool. Cut away hair and debris from the roller and end caps.
  • Check roller movement: Ensure the roller spins freely by hand. If stiff or seized, replace the roller assembly.
  • Test without accessory: Run the vacuum with no powered accessory attached. If it runs normally, the issue is isolated to the accessory.
  • Try another powered tool: If another motorized tool works fine, replace the faulty accessory.
  • If C12 appears with all powered tools: The accessory power output on the main PCB may be faulty. Professional diagnosis is required.
