my hoover elite overheats what is the cause

My guess is either a loose belt, impeding spin and air flow, or your filter (not the dust compartment but that rubber cone filter in it) needs to be cleaned with water, as your user manual tells you how to do.

The cooling pump already has the Termal compound on it. Use that. If you apply any extra it may cause create a *bubble* increasing heat temperature and cause overheating. Make sure to clean the cpu from the old termal compound. Hope this helps.

In my opinion, the product that you have is defective and should be returned for replacement. Mine does not do this, but I have had the same thing happen with another brand that I used in the past. Or, is it possible that the hot air brush is too hot and needs to cool down before it restarts!! Hope this helps!!

Mine has low and high heat settings as well as low and high fan speeds. The design may have been changed.

I found cleaning the pump intake solved the problem. When I took my out, it had cat hair plugging the intake side. Once I got it cleaned out, it works like new!

Sounds like it may be the electric control unit may be defective (have a short in it) If still under warranty call Co and request new one--it is the temp control as the unit itself can tlerate heat--mine will go above 600 deg. Good Luck, Anne

If it started to run again after 10 minute or so then yes the vents on the top of the motor above the string could be clogged and causing the motor to overheat. If the trimmer just stopped working it could be a number of things. Switch/trigger, battery, wire shorted against the housing in the tube, etc.

Mine vacuum's the dirty water up. Not sure what you are doing wrong or if your machine isn't working properly.

Mine was shutting off after about 3-5 minutes of use, so I called Hoover customer service and they solved the problem right away by having me remove the power nozzle at the swivel neck. It is a press fit, but it will come off with a bit of tug. Looking down the nozzle swivel neck it was so full of debris and hair that the thermal protector was shutting the unit off. I took a wire coat hanger and literally pull out about a half a cup of hair and debris. Now i just finished a 1,400 square feet area (bare floor and a small carpeted area) and no problems at all. I hope this helps

It shouldn't be over heating, but a cool down period is normal after a safety shutdown. I run mine for a solid hour, most times. Be sure you are grinding items recommended for the mill. If it is quickly overheating under normal operating conditions, you may have a defective unit.

Sounds like it's overheating, I had attached a fan to mine and it worked great.

Give me some time and I will help you find out. I have contacted Hoover and are awaiting a response. As soon as I find out for you I will be able to better answer your question.

Oh no I am sorry about that! The Prolux 7000 does come with the 7 year warranty and is one of the most dependable vacuums we sell. As such it is equipped with a thermally protected motor. Which means if the motor gets to hot it will turn off the motor. There are several things that can cause this.1. Something wrapped around or jammed in your brushroll.2. Working the motor to hard (for example vacuuming a long time on thick plush carpet)3. The vacuum bag being to full or the filters to dirty.If its none of those things and you need to take advantage of the warranty just email our service team at service@greatvacs.com and we will get you all taken care of :)Thanks Dustin Oh no I am sorry about that!

Make sure filter is installed correctly and is clean. Call Hoover customer service if that does not help. I have had no problems at all.

I haven't checked mine, but it's nowhere close to 140-150F; it's more in the 200F Range. Something is definitely wrong with your Machine. Did you descale it regularly? Maybe that's something to look at.

all depends on your gearing if overgeared any motor will overheat with any battery . I run a castle 3800 kv and mamba max controller . never overheat

The motor has a thermo cut out to protect the motor If you put to much down pressure the motor will heat up the motor faster, try using mild pressure and see what happens. I did not run my saw that long, project was small and the saw worked great. Good Luck!!
