Lastly, straighten the airway of the floor nozzle and remove any blockages there. String or hair on the brushroll or soft roller prevent them from spinning and block anything from being sucked inside the vacuum.

r/VacuumCleaners on Reddit: Fix for Shark Duo Clean soft brush spinning failure.
December 24, 2021 - These Sharks are frustrating because they have so many failure points such as the brush rolls failing, the hoses ripping, and the switches melting and they never seem to be in a rush to fix any of them. They would be way better vacuum cleaners if they just revised the designs to fix the common failure points and maybe improved the cyclone and filter setups. ... Not really worth the time.

That red light usually means a blockage or tangled brush. I had the same issue once and switched to the Shark PowerDetect Cordless Stick Vacuum afterward. The design’s easier to maintain and there aren’t as many parts to unclog. It’s quick to clean out and gets back to running without needing tools or a full teardown.

4 years old. I was running it and it turned off abruptly. There was a clog around the hardwood brush roll. Now the motor doesn't start with the power button and I can only get a fraction of the speed when I engage brushrolls.

Guessing something jammed the roller and messed up the belt and internal components of the head. You can buy a complete brushroll nozzle assembly for a repair. The Duoclean vacuums are particularly prone to issues with the nozzles so you might want to consider investing in a different option before spending money into this Shark.

It’s probably toast unfortunately. But I believe Shark has a 5 year warranty on uprights. I’m always one to reach out to them directly to get your moneys worth!

First, make sure the vacuum is plugged in. If the vacuum is plugged in and the switch is pushed on, but it's not turning on then try to reset your circuit breaker or reset the motor thermostat. The steps to reset the motor thermostat can be found in the troubleshooting guide.

So my shark brush(not the roller) spins and stops continuously when in hard floor mode, but when i change to carpet mode, is spins freely. There is also a flashing green light accompanying this issue. Had anyone experienced this problem with shark vacuums? When i google this it seems the only answer i get is flashing green light means it is charging Thanks

what model is this?
Shark vacuums don't have height settings, the carpet/hard floor setting are merely a suction bleed valve and I believe it slows down the brushroll as well.
If you are experiencing this issue when using the hard floor setting on carpet, it's that the suction is too strong and bogs down the head in the carpet. The carpet setting decreases the suction and allows the head to move through the carpet.
If you are experiencing this on hard flooring, than it sounds like an issue with the head and I'd contact CS for troubleshooting Shark considers the entire head a wear part and not covered under their standard warranty.

Common Shark issue is problems with the heads and as the other comment said they don’t cover heads as they think they are “wear” items. One of the many reasons enthusiasts like myself dislike Shark vacuums and don’t buy them. I’d cut your losses and toss it where sadly they all end up and belong.
