Henry hoover - no power

[Jupiter01]

There no life on this all of a sudden.
The led doesn’t light up and it doesn’t start.

When I put my fluke T130 on these probes, it shows AC but no voltage display.


There’s plenty of battery in the tester and I’ve done a self-test to confirm that the tester works.

When I test the wires going into the switch, I get the same AC but no voltage display.

There’s plenty 3 pin plug is moulded. Any suggestions on what might be causing this?

Here we go, another multipage thread...

Have you considered even considered testing/changing the fuse?

 

[Jupiter01]

Yep, tested the fuse but if that was blown, would I get an AC light?

In the end I changed the 3 pin plug and hey presto! We have voltage reading at those pins.
All working now.

One question, why do I still only get a AC light here and no voltage?

Are you sure it’s an AC light? Maybe test for continuity?

Definitely AC light. There’s a different light for continuity.

Yes I know that. What I meant was, maybe test for continuity on the plug, cable et al?
