OK- After reading every ones suggestions on how to fix that loud sucking noise that air is coming out of on the vent/relief valve and trying everything from cleaning the filters, washing/dusting off the cone cylinder, making sure all the hoses were clear of debris and STILL NOTHING WORKING, I called Shark and here is what they told me. A LOT of the clogs happen IN THE HANDLE!!! How is it no one had mentioned this in any comments before? So the first thing you want to do is un-clip the hose that is connects the handle to the vacuum and of course release the handle from the vacuum so now you are just holding the hose/handle. Grab a penny and drop it down the hose to see if it comes out the other side, BIG SURPRISE, mine didn't! It took me an hour and half using a broom handle and a wire coat hanger to get about half a shoe box worth of crap out of the hose and handle. UNBELIEVABLE! And be prepared for a smell! Throughout the cleaning process I continued to drop the penny down and knew every time it didn't come out, the unclogging hadn't been completed yet. I hope this helps all of you who have tried everything else!

The brush stopped turning in my Shark Navigator Lift Away and my husband took the bottom off of it and there is a switch/ reset there that trips when it gets to hot. He flipped the switch and it works again just as good as it did to start with.

DO NOT TAPE OVER THE HOLE! It is there to allow air flow into the vacuum when there is a restriction within the vacuum, this will keep the motor from over heating. If you notice that "popping" sound along with the whistling of air, you most definitely have a clog or extremely dirty filters. My problem was in the 180° bend in the handle. Once filters are removed and cleaned, checked your hose for clogs. Once fixed, she'll purr like new. Watch your pant legs, this vacuum is great.

I had basically taken the vacuum apart, checked every hose and filter, and it was not until I saw this that the problem was found: "Try unhinging the top part of the dust bin (opposite the button used to release dirt from the bottom) and clearing out any blockage on the cylindrical filter in the upper section. Mine started working great right away. "

FYI for anyone still not getting suction. There is a mesh screen inside the collector that will clog and the side vent/relief valve will start lifting. Sometimes it stays open other times it lifts and seats over and over. You cannot remove this mesh screen and you need to remove the collector and rinse it off. You can try using a brush or your hands to clear the screen but washing worked best for me. I suggest letting the unit dry for an hour or so before using again. Might be a good final step before you put the vacuum away.

+guuuuglestinks Thanks for the tip, I think this will do the trick. I was having air blast loudly out of this side vent and couldn't figure for the life of me what the issue was. I checked all the hoses (actually, completely disassembled the unit), but nothing helped. However, I checked this filter after reading your comment, and it was covered with very fine dust. Thanks again!

My vac is 2 years old max. I remember when I first got it the suction was great (almost hard to push!) but with a clean vac and clean filters and no clogs etc it still will not improve back to its new self. Still runs just fine. Not a motor issue but I'm disappointed it will not perform like new and its not that old.

Surprised how basic this was. Mine was not sucking anything from floor or handle. You need to add clean the screen inside the canister as that was my problem. Something wet/moist must have been sucked up and it clogged the metal screen inside the dump canister. Once that was scrubbed free with a toothbrush it worked like new.

Check the handle people. Mine was making a weird suction noise and the release valve was going crazy. I check the hose (for the first time since i bought it) and there was crap all stuck in there. Turns out i sucked in a receipt and the build up to the clog started from there. I removed tge clog and all was back to normal.

I have the Navigator Deluxe model and it's doing the same thing. Brushes spin only when it's tilted, otherwise no suction and no power when upright. I know these have a sensor if it overheats and you're supposed to just turn it off and leave it unplugged for 45min then it should work. I cleaned it and let it sit for a week and it's still doing the same thing.

Complete loss of suction through the normal bottom part and the hoses. Makes a loud "air blowing" noise, and that is because there is some kind of rectangular hole on the side of the vacuum that is blowing air out of it. Someone told me it's a pressure relief valve/hole. Not sure why it's tripped, but I have to put tape over the hole to get SOME suction back but when I do that the vacuum overheats. Filter is new/clean, container is emptied, and I don't see any obstructions in the hose. Anyone know what the warranty is on these Sharks? Love their vacuums, but if their warranty is LONG (hopefully 3-5 years) and they actually take care of this, I will be spreading the word of Shark vacuums around to everyone I know for the rest of my life!

Kathy Forrest Hey, I actually ended up fixing the problem myself shortly after making that post! The problem is very simple but at the same time it's not very obvious at first. What fixed it for me was a good cleaning of the inside of the dust/dirt container. Normally you can empty it by releasing the bottom or top latch and dumping it into a garbage, but there is 1 thing inside the container that doesn't get cleaned when you do that. This is hard to describe so I'll link to a picture to help... i.imgur.com/af48qub.jpg (Note, even if you don't have the same exact model, they all have that same thing inside the container) If you look inside a Shark's dirt container from the top you'll see a cylinder sticking up in the center. It is made of a screen filter. It rarely, if ever, gets cleaned when you empty the dirt, and it never gets the same attention as the actual filters you replace UNDER the dirt container. All I did was wipe the screen filter with a cloth damp with warm, slightly soapy, water until it was clean. My Shark vacuum immediately came back to like, sucking harder than it has in years!.

I hope that you have found the solution by now, but for anyone who has the same problem (as I just did) I figured out that this square on the side releases the built up air when it's not reaching the dust bin, due to a blockage. Try unhinging the top part of the dust bin (opposite the button used to release dirt from the bottom) and clearing out any blockage on the cylindrical filter in the upper section. Mine started working great right away.

Hi, my shark is around 3 weeks old and I love it, usually when I use it, you can see on my carpet where the brush has rolled over. but tonight when I used it, it seemed off? It was still sucking and picking everything up and the brusher was still rotating but where I can usually see where ive vacuumed for some reason I couldn't? It's like the brush wasn't rotating quick enough to make a mark on the carpet? I've cleaned out everything to make sure there was no blockages and there wasn't and I cleaned the filter but it still isn't working like it did yesterday? what do you think could be wrong?

Since I bought my vacuum, it has emitted a smell. Not a burning smell, but kind of a dust smell, even though I have emptied the cup a few times and have used the vac about 20 times now. Filters are clean. My older bigger vacuum does not do this. The Navigator has plenty of suction, but the problem seems to be dust release during use. What might be the problem? Very frustrating and unpleasant.

Suction stops abt 3secs after turning the sweeper on. The prob sounds like it stems from the rectangular opening, that's on the right side, found just below the dirt chamber, and from the inside, under the filters. Whatever that opening is meant to function as, it's not working properly, almost like something in it flies open and sticks. If I put my finger over the opening, suction resumes...any suggestions???

You have a clog that causes the relief valve to open. Remove the handle at the top and check down that vertical pipe. Mine had a massive hair ball. You can try to pull out with a hooked coat hanger. I pushed it down with a broom handle, turned it on and GULP, it came out into the canister.

I recieved my Shark Navigator NV586 from Target a few days ago and assembled it to find that it worked just fine on bare floors and a "Persian" type rug, but shut itself off on a low pile very dense carpet. The red light want on and the unit would not move. The brush roller had stopped spinning. Shutting it off fixed it for a few moments and the problem recurred. Luke, at the hotline for troubleshooting told me that there are certain carpets that are not compatible with this unit. His boss told me this was not a problem with the vacuum cleaner but with the carpet, and that I may have trouble returning the Navigator to Target as it was not defective! He refused to send me an acknowledgement that this was a known issue with this unit. Has anyone else had this problem with the NV 586?

My shark navigator lift away isn't even a week old, I empty out the filter after each use and clean and wash it (because of animal hair) there are no clogs in the hoses and I've checked everything. But I'm getting a loss of suction and a strange funny noise. Any one have any ideas?

My shark professional vacuum list away lock is not relocking/reattaching. Any ideas on how to fix this so that I hear that "click" knowing it attached back in?

FOR FIRST SIGN OF POWER LOSS OR LOUD MOTOR NOISE: Remove & empty tank, remove all hoses Possible, pipes , handle, and white filter under tank. use : outside water hose, deep sink, tub , adjustable shower head. sprayer hose or adjustable extension faucet head in kitchen with bucket if need be... either spray all purpose cleaner in both ends of every disassembled piece first, or just rinse out each piece through EACH END OF EACH PIECE & filter. You will also rinse out any clogs in parts, without having to HUNT. Vacuums also accumulate skin & hair oils on sides of all parts & filters, washing them out eliminates this build-up, helps stop many clogs, thus less chance of burning up motor. ....motors burn up also from things like: jammed broken belts, something jamming rotating brush when button switched from floor to carpet setting. clogged pipes, handle entrance hole to tank area. or dirty filter..... a dryer brush works quite well for scrubbing parts, if available (long thin black brush found in most hardware , discount, or grocery stores. but not necessary for most clogs , water usually works, if stubborn, use broom handle or wire coat hanger. ABSOLUTELY MAKE SURE ALL PARTS ARE COMPLETELY DRY or you WILL KILL YOUR VACUUM. JUST SHAKE WELL & HANG UPSIDE DOWN TO DRY. SHAKE EACH PIECE BEFORE REASSEMBLING TO CHECK FOR ANY WATER ... DRY COMPLETELY TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO MOTOR. My vacuumed continues to run & run, I save time, money, stress and landfill pollution. Plus EVERYTHING IS CLEANER. I hope this helps.

The green light is not coming on for me with the first ON switch. The brushes aren't moving. I've done all the cleaning suggested. What else can I do? Thanks for any help.

the first on switch is for hardwood/tile floors. it is suction only-the brush underneath (beater bar) is not supposed to turn. and the green light is an indicator light for the beater bar. neither will work in the first on position, only the second

HELP! My vacuum just stopped working today! The power will only work if the brush roller button is engaged, but there is no suction. The roller is spinning, but not picking anything up. I checked for clogs and none were found. Any suggestions??!!
