    Need help identifying where this part came from on my Electrolux PN6 power head

    Yes I am glad I got that all reassembled right. Couldn’t have done it without the help from you guys here. I wished I didn’t use magic eraser on the canister and instead should have used goof off first to get rid of the paint rub marks on the body. That would’ve maintained the uniform gloss in...

    Need help identifying where this part came from on my Electrolux PN6 power head

    That is interesting! I had no idea but glad that it’s all out back the way the factory intended. I was a dummy and washed the power head base and I thought I used enough compressed air to dry the wheel axles and spring assembly but apparently not. It somewhat rusted up a little bit but an...

    Winner winner chicken dinner! Figured it out after you said it hooks under the axle. There is a TINY little passageway in the elbow cover that lets it go to the axle. What does that little wire do precisely anyways? Not like the wheels would fall off if it wasn't there. Fixed! Thanks you...

    OMG Paul you’re a lifesaver! I think that is it! Part number 13! It definitely is not a brush roll ring as the two metal ones in mine are metal and in place. The bigger question now is how the heck does this supposed retainer wire go in? Been trying to understand how that piece got in but no...

    Need help identifying where this part came from on my Electrolux PN6 power head

    Recently acquired a decent Electrolux model 2100 with matching PN6 power head and it was badly clogged and mostly neglected when I purchased it and upon tearing into I discovered that the power head was CAKED in dirt and even had a clog in it. Not sure how long the previous owner had it like...

    Hello from Canada

    Hello, new member here. I came to this forum because like many others I have a small collection of vacuums and I need help with repairing one that I recently acquired. While I'm mostly a modern SEBO lover that I do have a weird soft spot for the Electrolux Canada made canisters from the 1980s...
