Hey all! I have a pretty nice AP-200. It is in very good condition but it doesn't work at all. When I turn the switch on, the bag light comes on, but that's all. What could be wrong? Is the valve under the 1-to-6 knob on top of the cleaner broken?

Hey all ! A friend a mine asked me if I'd be interested to repair old gravity toasters. I'd like to sign in and become a member of a specific forum, gather information and chat a bit before I try to repair the first one. Do you have a link to a good forum like this?

Hey all ! I just got an ELux AP-100 almost for a free, the machine stopped after it sucked gyproc dust. The previous owner told me she opened the machine to clean it (I can't tell what she exactly did) and she told me it worked again but it was very noisy. WHen I got the machine, the side...

Hey all ! Last year I bought a lot of Electrolux cans and accessories from the same seller, he had other makes for sale but I insisted that I was interested in ELux only. BUT, I couldn't resist when I saw a Rainbow D2 with a hose in fair condition and a lot of accessories, including the ones...

This telescoping wand came with other stuff I bought (3 Electrolux's with hoses and so on). Can anyone tell me what make it is? It is in very good shape so it could be useful for someone else.

Hey there ! A friend of mine took this very old vacuum out of his shed and asked me if I could make it work again ! I plugged it and it had run for 1 second with lots of sparks, then I shut it down and tried again a few seconds later and it was dead. Is it still possible to get a bag and spare...

I was given a box with lots of Elux mostly small items , except for this hose. I need some help from you guys to tell me which model it fits on. My guess is an upright, maybe 3500 series. Am I right ?

Hey all! I grabbed a Perfect vacuum cleaner today at a garage sale. The machine is incredibly clean and very, very powerful. When I arrived at the garage sale, I didn't see any Electrolux vacuum cleaner outside, so I asked if they had one. A few minutes later a lady came out with this cleaner...

Hey all! I need to know how to use my B-28 and all different brushes, and how to deal with the washing fluid to clean my carpet. DO you know where I can safely download an instructions manual, or is there anybody here that has one for sale?

Hey all! A friend of mine bought an Aerus Lux 5000 automatic (US model) 15 years ago or so and has had no problem since last week, the light that usually comes on when the bag is full started to act funny. It comes on even when the bag is new, what could cause this? He'd like me to fix it for...

Hey there! I've been busy today in the vacuum cleaner department, I bought lots of ELectrolux stuff. Also the seller had a Rainbow D2 for sale, something I don't know a lot about except that it uses water to catch the dust instead of a bag. He had a bag full of accessories so I decided to...

I was given an Arrow ELectro today. The canister is in very good shape, the chrome is lightly pitted, but I think a good paste and elbow grease will get rid of it. The motor feels very strong, succion is powerful at front end, so is exhaust at the other end. I suspect there was a filter at the...

Hey there! I just bought this Diplomat Lx. I had to fix the rocker switch to make it work, it didn't when I bought it. Now I find it pretty noisy, and the succion is far from what it should be. WHat puzzles me is that it blows a fair amount of air through the exhaust port, it is just like it...

Just bought his one this afternoon. It is in very good condition, has lot of power. Informations in the cover say it's a 1521 model. I like the color scheme.

I put apart the Z88 I recently bought because I wanted to know why it was so noisy. First picture shows you how much the motor was tilt in the canister. No wonder it was noisy, the motor was touching the inside of the can. Also, one of the metal clips that usually hold the fan covers was loose...

It was my lucky day today: when I looked at the ads, I found that this Epic was very recenty put for sale in a city close to where I planned to work in the woods. It is an Epic 6500 SA 75th anniversary, with basic accessories, all is in very good shape. I won't say how much I pay, so you won't...

Put pictures of three of them, number 4 is an AP-200 in pretty good shape. Does anyone know what the small sun on the side and on the front of one of the 88's means ? It seems it is an early model of 88. THe wall-paper model of Z55 has a black front cover instead of brown, I didn't notice...

Earlier this week I had a call from a friend of mine working at the ecocenter saying: we received a very old Electrolux, I don't know if you coud be interested. It ends up it is a early ZB55 model (1949-1951). It is in poor condition as for esthetics: skids are rusty, and the body cover is...

I bought one in very good condition today, no tear in the material, no weird smell. According to informations gathered in Doug Smith's collection, this model has been made from 1976 to 1987, I wonder if there is a way to tell what exact year?

I opened an AP-280 for the first time earlier today because the motor was noisy and I suspected the bearing has to be changed, what I did without any problem. I know for sure that both speeds (HI and LOW) worked properly before I did the bearing replacement. NOw , I have only one speed, the...
