Model issues and repair guidance

Use the full-bag indicator as a prompt, not a parts verdict: inspect bag loading, filter seating, hose bends and wand blockage before replacing the sensor path. Floor pickup requires the correct height setting plus a free brushroll and protected belt. If tool suction is weak while carpet cleaning remains normal, isolate the rear stretch hose and its connections instead of opening the nozzle or motor.Treat the full-bag light as a reason to inspect bag, filters, hose and wand, not proof of a failed sensor. Check height, brush and belt for floor pickup; isolate rear-hose joints when tool suction alone is weak.
