Introduction
The components in this device are extremely intertwined, meaning you may think your vacuum might have a motor issue when the power switch assembly is the real problem not supplying the motor with power. This is crucial, in that it is important to inspect your device thoroughly to ensure you are diagnosing the correct component to be replaced.
This guide will provide accessibility in helping others fix their previously unusable devices in the hopes of not having to purchase a new or different handheld vacuum. Of course handheld vacuums are very simple, though many consumers may not explore the options to fix their device, on the quick assumption that it may be most time effective to go purchase another inexpensive substituted product.
