- Unusual or excessive motor noise
- Increased vibration
- Motor overheating
- Motor shutting off during operation
- Motor failing to start
- Burning or electrical odor

Before replacing the motor, check the hose, inlet valves, tubing, filter, and other components for blockages. A restriction in the vacuum system can also cause reduced suction.
