Clicking Noise on Kirby G4 Transmission

[vac_mac87]

Hey Everyone!

I'm finally getting around to being able to conduct some routine maintenance on some of my vacuums in my collection. My Kirby G4 is in very good shape and does a fine job at cleaning, but when the vacuum is in neutral it makes a clicking noise whenever I move it forward or backwards. I'm hoping it's a simple fix. Any input or tips on how to rectify it will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Michael
