How to Troubleshoot your Hoover Wind Tunnel (and make it suck again)

The bagless Hoover Wind Tunnels tend to have some issues. Watch as I share the steps to troubleshoot your Hoover:
1. Check your Filter. The filter clogs with dirt causing the unit to not function properly (won't pick up the dirt). The vacuum needs to "breathe". That's where the filter comes in. A dirty, clogged filter won't let the vacuum maintain proper air flow. Filters should be repleased every 6 months or so and cleaned in-between. Yes, you sometimes need to use a vacuum on your vacuum.
2. SECOND Filter. Yep- there are 2! This one is just as ignored as the first filter.
3. Check the Belt. On a lot of the wind tunnels, you can access the belt from the base. In this particular unit, the belt can be accessed from the top. Just because the belt is intact, doesn't mean it's okay. Belts stretch out, which results in your brush roll being impaired, and it won't agitate or pick up as good as it should. Belts should be replaced every 3 months or so (depending on use) for this vacuum.
Here is the belt replacement for the Hoover Wind Tunnel:
Here is the filter replacement for the Hoover Wind Tunnel:
FUN FACT! Lots of replacement belts have conversion numbers. We can guide you into a belt that will function properly but will be much tighter so the brusher will spin faster, it will agitate more, and it will pick up better overall!
4. Check the tubing. Start by removing the hose and try to drop a penny through the hose. For the lower tubing, use a special tool to check for clogs.
To get our special clog-removing tool, click here: www.vac.md/product-page/zip-i...
When you are vacuum shopping, one thing to think about is the design of the vacuum. When there are too many curves, dirt will get clogged in there as well. Then, you will spend money to get it unclogged.
Design Matters! We specialize in guiding you to a Vacuum perfect for your lifestyle AND we will teach you the ins-and-outs so you know how to troubleshoot any issues, at home.

I bought two new filters...still no sucking. Then I did your step by step. Belt was fine and I could drop a screw down the "easy" hose. Then came the moment of truth: I detached the bendy-hose at the bottom/end of the stream. It had a solid mass of compacted dust and dirt and cat-hair and whatever! I used the same manual Phillips-head screwdriver used to pop the hood as well as the $1.25 plastic drain clearer(I keep one in each bathroom!), so I didn't have to buy anything to clear the machine! You were right: "It's is so satisfying" somehow to clear the airstream! Voila!

VacMD, I made a coat hanger tool, bent 90 degrees at one end to go fishing for dust bunnies. My 2021 Wind Tunnel Rewind has a charcoal, high density foam that can be washed and dried over night. The blue filter at the intake to the wind tunnel can also be washed. Seems like Hoover TI listens and change their design. The drive belt stretches to save the motor from burning up or destroying a roller with frozen bearings (both expensive parts).

Thought I would point it out, incase you wanted to mention it later. OR maybe it isn’t a design problem and by simply cleaning the hose, and restarting the machine, the seal will close. It is the seal next to the cup opening at the end of the hose. It’s on the corner, making it hard to close. I wish I could send a photo but I can’t.

Hello from Ohio. I have the blue anniversary edition and have taken good care of it over the years. One thing that it inconsistent is the Green/ Red "clean/dirty " light. I know the flat sound sensor cover inside the hose hook up needs to be cleaned but are you aware of any other steps? The reason I ask is the red light sometimes takes forever to go out even when your not rolling the unit over a dirty area. Thanks!

@kimberly.thomason 10 ай бұрын

From what I have experienced with Hoover through the years…the “technology” in these units is not the best or most accurate. I don’t truly believe they are detecting dirt. Sometimes it’s more just for brush roll speed but the manufacture calls it “dirt sensing.” I wouldn’t be super concerned about it. I’ve seen the parts inside and nothing looks like an actual sensor or circuit board.

My neighbor had one at the curb, the hepa filter was clogged, I just threw the hepa away. I don't need no stinkin hepa filter. Otherwise, it works like it did when new, a piece of junk when new. But, I may use the hose to clean out my truck with it now and then. I may throw the other filter away as well hahaha. I think I'll stick with my old Eurekas, nice and simple beasts. I liked your vid, though, I'd like any vid you made hehe.

Glad you could save that piece of junk and use it as a garage vac!

It’s so weird because when our Hoover Windtunnel pet vacuum works it vacuums up a lot of pet hair & dirt they track in but both filters are clean as a whistle & have never needed cleaning. Our issue is the hose works but the floor suction works only “sometimes “; we have zero carpet. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Oooo that’s something you will need to take to a local repair store…not something I can diagnose this way.
