Lovely video Peter. The Henry refused to start on Saturday. My wife was equal parts impressed that I could fix it, and disappointed I wasn't going to buy a new one. Well done and thanks. Tip sent.

Got a dead Henry. And I’ve tried this just now and it’s still dead. Rechecked still dead. I’ve even replaced the on off switch. Guess that’s the end of my Henry ☹️

Is the purpose of the PCB just to control the 2 speeds? Are there no safety concerns for bypassing it? Am about to do this but just wanted to make sure
@hesbs11 ай бұрын
I’m not encouraging anyone to do it. I’m not a trained hoover engineer. Just showing what I did. Please do further research or ask a professional.
@arrows7891011 ай бұрын
@@hesbs It's all good. I hold liability and I trust this process with the safety knowledge I have, wiring is correct but wasn't sure what the exact purpose of the PCB was. Just wondering if any of the viewers have a second opinion.

excellent, thank you, my machine suddenly stopped working and i assumed it was a fuse, it wasn't, i opened it up and was surprised to find so many wires and a pcb so gave up. After seeing your fix to an identical machine i just tried it, initially i was concerned that you did not say which of the two white wires should go to which of the two switch posts, since one post is positive and one negative and i wondered if it might make the machine run in reverse and blow instead of suck if i got it the wrong way round, or even burn it out, but i took a chance and either it doesn't matter which white wire goes to which switch post or i got lucky, it sucks great. thanks.

Just echoing all the other comments 🎉 thankyou so much. I've had my Henry for 16 years and only today it died. Your video has her running on full chat which saves me the hassle of pushing the button every time. Thanks again, great video 🥳🥳
My Henry stopped working the other day - I've got it apart but the PCB on mine only has 2 wires on it, the brown and blue... any help would be greatly appreciated!

I bought my Henry when I was 18, I'm now 33, married, and have 2 kids. I still remember when me and my now wife moved in together and she saw my Henry for the very first time, haha! She loves a good hoover! He's been part of the family for years! Today, I thought I was going to have to say goodbye. It was a sad moment. You just saved his life and saved me over £100! Thank you.
