Here we show how to replace the Micro Switch on a Shark. This is applicable for any Shark vacuum that has a single brush roll. The Shark Duo's that have two brush rolls, are very different and this repair will not apply to them. Some of the models this will work with include NV350, NV351, NV352, NV401, NV402, NV450, NV501, NV502, NV503, NV500W, NV22, NV80, NV400, NV650, NV650W, NV651, NV652, UV410, UV420, UV440, UV440, UV540
It is very common for the brush roll on Shark vacuums to cease to turn on. Many people often assume it is the belt. The belt very rarely gives out on Shark uprights, more commonly it is an electrical issue. This is the Micro Switch.

That's what drives me nuts about the Vacuum Wars channel. He only shows how well a vacuum works out of the box, but doesn't spend any attention on how long the vacuum will clean correctly before it ends up breaking something and being set outside on the curb for trash pickup.

Just bypass the switch by rewiring the connection. Remove the switch completely. Works perfectly!

@omegaman2183

the microswitch activates when the handle is dropped down. it also looks like it activates the LED lights. So if the LED lights work, doesn't that mean the microswitch is good?

@angelageary1684

how do I know if the belt is broken without taking my shark apart. the roller is not spinning at in both modes . the switch does still turn off and om

I found that replacing the micro switch on Shark Duoclean was very easy. Unsolder the old switch from the wiring and solder the new switch to those cables and bingo. Be careful to mount the new switch onto the mini lugs molded into the machine. When replacing the side onto the machine be sure that the slider on the body of the vac is in the forward position. This was a really helpful video but I wish I could earn $190 as easily.

Just watched your video "Why You Cannot Repair Your Shark...") and this came up. We owned 3 Shark SV780N model units--a handheld. We loved them. Then over time, two began acting up. They cut out at first and then finally quit. I knew it was the switch in the handle and assumed I could easily replace it. NOT. The switch is mounted onto the circuity of a tiny electronic board which is itself mounted into the vac handle. Burn marks on the boards suggested the switch was not to blame. New boards were not available. I trashed the two for lack of a simple repair. When replacing batteries, I cleaned the insides which acquired a lot of micro dust. Cleaning done so I would not be wearing dust as I worked on them or inhaling it. I ended up being quite mad about the whole business as one cannot make repairs on what was a popular vac. I have been soldering since 1968 (With the same Wen Iron, now outdated) but have to say, circuitry is now beyond my skill unless I buy new hot air "Blower" type irons I see used on computer electronics.

Ordered the switch from Vacuums R Us and I received a filter to some other random Shark vacuum (not the model I had entered to search for the switch😡😡

@orlandocalderon3656

I did replaced the switch but that didn’t work. I also replaced the motor because there was a lot of black powder. Still didn’t fix it. Only the motor is not working so the roller doesn’t rotate but the vacuum is suctioning. What else could it be?

@adamdav1552a

I'm really struggling to get a replacement micro switch for my shark vacuum in the UK (NZ801UKTSB). Do you think putting a manual toggle switch on top of the housing instead of the original switch would work?

I'm going to give this a shot today. Hopefully this works,if not, this is the last shark I'll ever buy !

@fredymendez1786

i watched other video and I tough that was # 1 but now I know it is you the # 1 video in KZbin. I want to watch a video how to change the belt.

@NoTimeMommy

Thank you for this video. This was exactly my problem, which was fixed by replacing the microswitch. I was happy to order a replacement microswitch from you all thanks to these clear instructions. Hope others do the same. Cheers

Thanks for the video. My switch tested okay. Then I saw that the white wire connected to the switch, was almost completely severed.

@lmlevine

Excellent video, thank you. Navigator 370. MicroSwitch and wires checked out OK. FWIW, checked voltage on the main On/Off/Roller switch - both positions read about 7v. Seemed the roller position should be higher voltage. Being lazy and not wanting to take the whole top section apart, I soaked the top of the switch with silicon spray, a few times, letting it soak down in, exercised the switch rapidly. Now the roller does come on. I'll call it a fix, we'll see how long that lasts.

@mopeychild1

Yep I see my problem now. Bought your switch on ebay, thnx for the primer and Sharkhate. My wife loves these vacuums, must be nostalgia for her brokeass grad school days. Next you know one tiny plastic clip will break and the whole thing becomes trash, just like the last one.
