Possible Causes

Debris stuck on brushroll causing imbalance, Bent brushroll shaft in Sencor nozzle, Damaged motor fan blades, Loose mounting screws in motor housing

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Remove the battery before inspecting moving parts.

  • Clean brushroll: Remove the brushroll and clean off any clumps of hair or debris that could cause imbalance.
  • Check for straightness: Roll the brushroll on a flat surface; if it wobbles, replace it.
  • Inspect motor area: If vibration persists with the brushroll removed, the main motor fan may be damaged and the motor assembly should be replaced.
  • Tighten screws: Check accessible screws on the nozzle and motor housing and tighten if loose.
