Possible Causes

Hair and debris wrapped around brushroll ends, Broken drive belt (on belt-driven Sencor heads), Failed brush motor in floor nozzle, Damaged wiring in nozzle neck

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF and remove the battery before working on the brushroll.

  • Remove brushroll: Open the floor nozzle cover and remove the brushroll. Clean all hair and debris from bristles and end caps.
  • Check belt (if present): On models with a belt, inspect it for breaks or stretching. Replace with the correct Sencor belt if damaged.
  • Inspect motor: If the brushroll and belt are fine, the brush motor may have failed. Check for burnt smell or discoloration.
  • Electrical check: Ensure the nozzle is fully inserted into the wand and that electrical contacts are clean.
  • Replace nozzle: If the motor is defective, replace the entire motorized floor nozzle or brush motor assembly.
