Possible Causes

Worn brushroll bristles on Sencor floor head, Brushroll not spinning at full speed, Incorrect height setting (if adjustable), Blocked nozzle intake

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

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

  • Inspect brushroll: Check bristles for wear; if they are very short or uneven, replace the brushroll.
  • Clean brushroll: Remove hair and fibers wrapped around the brushroll and end caps.
  • Check nozzle intake: Look for blockages at the front lip and internal channels of the nozzle.
  • Test brush motor: With the vacuum on (battery reinstalled), briefly observe whether the brushroll spins. If it is slow or intermittent, the brush motor or wiring may need replacement.
