The brushes on the Vax RapidPower PRO ECGLV1B1 may not spin after cleaning due to the following reasons:
- The carpet washer is not reclined (the brushes only spin when reclined). - There are blockages in the SpinScrub brushes or brushbar. - The brushbar or spindle on the back of the SpinScrub brush is damaged. - The SpinScrub filter is blocked and needs to be wiped clean.
Check these components and clear any blockages or debris to resolve the issue.
