Hi I was hoping someone could direct me with right part number for the on/off switch for my Eureka upright vacuum that I own. Was vacuuming this morning and the switch fell apart & its stuck in the on position. I believe this is about a 1984 model machine . I provided 2 pictures. Any help...

Eureka Dial a nap from 1980's on The Middle I have seen a few episodes where the blue eureka has been pictured and even where "Frankie" is using it. Has a blue and white checkered bag. It seems though that the Hecks have another vacuum also .

I want to give a big thank you to Eurekaprince, rugsucker, thespiritof76, vacuumlad1650, and stricktlybojack for all of your help in getting my neighbors vacuum running like it should. I went to my local vacuum shop and the owner was so kind to look up the parts on his computer but he did find...

Thanks so much for all of the help! I didn't find any blockage in the fan chamber or the bag. I did install a new bag again and just like before, the motor still slows while running the vacuuum at times and then speeds back up again. I will say, between my help and how my neighbor takes care of...

Hello to all I was wondering if anybody out there has a new old stock motor for My Eureka the boss 12 amp upright vacuum. It was bought for me as a Christmas gift in 1997. The vacuum worked like a dream until today when the motor bearings went out completely. The bearings were failing for...

Thanks Eurekaprince for your reply, yes I do believe that these models were a bit rare. Would you or anybody else remember that there was a nos eureka F&G upright on eBay back in June that sold for about$ 280.00? It was all white with the vinyle bag on back and had red trim on the base. I was...
