Introduction
The drive motor of the Eureka SuctionSeal Pet is where all of the power comes from. This component is responsible for both creating the suction for the vacuum as well as generating the power that spins the brush roller via the drive shaft attached to the motor. When the motor fails due to age or electrical or mechanical failure it can result in the vacuum no longer working as intended. Following this guide will help you in replacing your no longer functioning motor with a new one.
