- Hi, in this video I look at my own Sebo vacuum cleaner which just stopped working one day. It has no signs of life and it is not the fuse. Can it be fixed? let's find out.

Remember that this is just for entertainment and I am not an expert in these repairs. The processes in the video may not be the best way, the correct way or the safest way to fix these things. I do love fault finding and trying to fix broken things, so I hope that comes across in this 'Trying to FIX' series. Many thanks, Vince.
An aside about your carpet: Axminster has been making carpets for so long that Jane Austen mentioned the company in her letters!
Report from the BBC: Strange Man in Rolls Royce found sleeping in car, yelling "Result." Seems Vince got kicked out of the house for 3 nights after saying the wife will be thrilled.
Great job and analysis on the fault at the end Vince - definitely that's what happened!
I'm always a little disappointed when it's a tea break fix 🙂 I love your looong videos 🥰
i'm glad you're sharing all these with us. thank you.
love your channel dude,you give people hope that a normal bloke can fix stuff
Excellent Vince! My favourite kind of video!!!!
You are right ,buy quality and you can`t go wrong , I bought a Hoover upright back in 1982 and it still works
I work on an awful lot of Sebo vacuums. Most common thing I change is cables as a lot of them I service are used in care homes, where cleaners are a bit rough on them. Very solidly built machines though, and stupidly simple to tear down and work on.
Vince your the only guy that gets excited when a household appliance fails lol .. great vid mate ..must be the flexing when wrapping the cable up 😊
Another great Fix Vince!
Great video, thnx Vince
When i first met my now wife 16 odd years ago. She borrowed my parents vacuum to do her car.
The "crimps" on the end of the fine stranded wires are called boot lace ferrules. Quite important when using screw terminals with fine stranded wire as when you tighten the screws down in the terminals this causes the fine strands to splay apart reducing the contact area with the terminal thus reducing the current carrying capacity.
SEBO - used by hotels everywhere! My friend went to the trouble of looking at the vacuums used in hotels to see what brands they use, as she wanted the best most reliable machine. It's Sebo! Great fix, very interesting about where the break occurred, Thanks Vince! All the best
Oh and it's pronounced seee bow
This seems to be a common fault with Sebo vacuums. My mum's Sebo started to be problematic and it was an almost identical fault (literally when I saw your video it was 'I bet it's cable failure' and indeed it was). I ended up cutting 30cm off the cable and reterminating it into the handle. In my mum's vac there was a clear way to disassemble the handle (very similar to yours) so I could loop the cables back into the switch using the strain relief. I also thankfully had some cable crimps to terminate the end.
Hey Vince! I’m soooo happy you got the Sebo working again, you have excellent taste in vacuum cleaners 🤣, thank you so much for the shoutout, I’m absolutely honoured for the mention 🥰. I have something to send to you to try and fix 🥰
That story about the carpet unlocked a deeeeep memory for me. The house I grew up in had a hallway carpet that came from a hotel refurb
Well done Vince
