Hi, I hope that someone out there in vacuum land can help. I recently got a Eureka 1425E from Drake in Idaho. It works well and looks great. It did not have a bag so I put the left over blue bag from my Sanitaire SC684A (the Sanitaire got a new ST Type bag system for Christmas). The white hood...

Hi, I need advise from the members who have worked on the early 500 series Kirbys. My 510 won't power up. I have replaced the motor brushes and cord earlier this month, but the motor simply will not run. The light comes on when I flip the switch, but nothing more. What should I do? Any ideas...
