Ultimate G TechDrive engage issue

[charleskirby66]

So I was vacuuming at work with my boss's Kirby Ultimate G when this happened. Is this a hard fix that I should take home, or can I accomplish this at work with simple tools? Never seen this or heard of this happening before…

Happens quite a bit.

It's a simple fix. Check YouTube. There's a step by step video on how to fix it.
It takes 5 minutes to repair it

Thank you so much for your reply! I have already fixed it, it did take just a few minutes. The hardest part was definitely getting the TechDrive unit out of the base pan of the Kirby. Also, this machine was very dirty inside, so I took the opportunity to clean it up a bit.

All in all, not a bad fix at all!

You are welcome, good sir! Same thing happened on diamond edition.
