thank you!! Appreciate you taking the time to show everyone this. Cannot imagine how many vacuums are in the trash just because someone didn’t think to unclog the hose!

Thank you for sharing, I have a similar problem definitely will try to fix it.

You would think with as much as we pay for these "sweet" vacuums we would not have to You Tube instructions on how to fix them! Damn!

At the 4:50 mark, you skipped showing us how to remove the top part (with the bag). That is the part I needed!

Thanks! Just fixed my vacuum after watching this video - so excited!

Thank you for your video!! My clog was farther up, but gave me the confidence to just start unscrewing parts to get further up the machine!!

Easy fix, just messy and time consuming. Thank you for watching my 3rd video I ever posted on KZread. I have 343 videos now!! Lol

Exact problem. Thanks.

Genius! Thank you so much! That did the trick. Found out I vacuumed up part of a paper towel that was blocking.

Thanks! That was exactly the problem and an easy fix.

You just saved me $400 dollars! Thank you.

Worked amazingly! Thank you!!

thank you, just watched your video. seems like the bag never got full, so hope I can do what you showed since I do not have anyone to help me. would that be why it "smells" while I am vacuuming? thanks again

It's much more effective to use an air compressor and blow it out from the top where the bag opening is.

If you don't have a back scratcher and then another thing that would work would be a wire hanger you can untwist it and use it to get down deep in the clock

I've done that as well. Wire hangers work great! Thanks for watching!

i use my dryer lint brush. it is long and flexible and the brushes grab the crud to pull it out.

Haha thats great. Ive used many different things to unclog a vacuum. The back scratchier seemed to be the best because of the little hooks on the end. But its not that flexible so maybe i will try a dryer lint brush. Thanks for the great idea and thanks for watching.

@@UltimateTechHub you're welcome.

You're missing the side motor filter, I would replace that. Otherwise you'll get a lot of dirt in the motor and it will start grinding. Also, if you haven't brought it in to an oreck dealer to get it tuned up in the last year... Do that, the seals on that model tend to wear out after 6-18 months and you'll start to loose suction, and have dirt spraying into the inside of the vacuum. The magnesium's had a lot of problems if they weren't rebuilt every year. And with it being discontinued now, I would bring it in and get parts while you still can.

Thanks for the comment. I have had an Oreck dealer give me a tune up last year. I had 2 free tune ups when I bought the vacuum. I love this vacuum and this is my second Oreck.

@@UltimateTechHub ya that model was definitely the best vacuum oreck ever made, it just unfortunately had some durability issues. But, if it's treated nicely it should still last you a very long time

Just curious about why you worked around the roller the whole time. Wouldn't it be easier to take the roller out? I must be missing something. Anyway, good video. Thanks!

Sounds like a loose wire or connection. My oreck did the same thing after I had it serviced. It ended being a connection that was loose. You may have to take it to a vacuum repair store if you dont feel comfortable taking your vacuum apart. Otherwise google your make and model to find out about the electrical system'. It may help you find the loose connection. Keep me posted.

The roller has a magnetic metal ball in middle. If the belt is loose it will not rotate fast enough and magnetic sensor will cause vacuum to just cut off when running. Other repair videos explain this

Check the battery in the handle. That's probably the issue.

Perfectly, not perfect.

U did not show HOW you took the base off of the handle!. That is why I wasted my time here!

The handle simply unscrews from the base. Turn the locking mechanism to the left. Easy. Sorry i didn't show that in the video. I must have edited it out. Thanks for watching!
