Shark Head intermittent

Currently got 2 Sharks in (both different models) with the same fault.

Head lights up but roller doesn’t turn, however if you give the roller a bit of a push it runs until you stop it.

Power running down to the head on all 3 contacts so I’m presuming PCB or motor, thought I’d ask if anyone else has had this issue before I strip them down.

They're known for brush roll motors. It sounds a typical symptom.

We do one of the motors >>here<<, but they're not all the same so you must check whats fitted before ordering one.

Unfortunately it’s not that one, however think I do have a head that takes that motor in my parts pile so will prob get a motor next time
