About LEDs in Vacuums....

[royalfan103]

Do they tend to screw with Cirtcuitry within a vacuum whenever one is installed? While the LEDs work Fine on my Other Hoovers. For some reason with my Savvy, the Sensor lights don't work properly despite the sensor itself being clean. I still need to test it fully with the Original Bulb that came with it as I didn't test it with that bulb.

They shouldn't

Sounds like your sensor itself is bad.

 

[royalfan103]

You're right.

It's f*&%$d. Tested it with the Old Bulb and it acted the same way.

 

[royalfan103]

Sorry about that.

The dirt sensor to my understanding is simply a tiny microphone. It listens to the dirt coming through the inlet and a diode adjusts the sensor light from dirty to clean appropriately.

Check the board for the sensor it might be dirty or just worn out and needs some new diodes.

The Mic is clean, so it could be something with the diodes. Maybe something with the Board itself.

These are the Inner Workings of the Dirt Sensor Assembly in the Savvy if ya’ll want to see them.
