As you can see My model (direct-air, no headlight) and the other direct-air model in sage green have a different motor housing/assembly, the one with the headlight has an identical motor housing to my red bypass-air model.

Hi guys! I have had this question for quite a while but was never quite sure if I’d just go ahead and try to do the motor swap/repair or ask if it would even work at all first… I have a 2001 Dirt Devil FeatherLite Plus and I’ve always loved the sage green color. The thing has always been as...

If I took it to a vacuum repair shop… Say Aerus/Electrolux…which is the one I normally go to. To purchase new machines and get my old ones repaired. They’ve replaced motors and cords as well as switches and electrified hoses on a few different vacuums I’ve had. Mostly Electrolux Epic upright...

Hi guys, I’m new here and need some advice. I just bought a brand new 2005 Maytag Satellite online and it came from the UK, but I’m from Canada so I have North American style wall sockets/plug-ins. This has a European UK style plug, so you see my problem. I now know I need a step up/down...
