The FoodSaver V3460 may light up but not seal when the button is pressed due to several possible reasons:
1. Bag Seal Issue – A wrinkle along the seal or moisture/food debris (such as juices, grease, or crumbs) on the sealing area may prevent proper sealing. Cutting the bag and resealing it can help. 2. Gasket Problems – The gasket around the drip tray or under the lid may be dirty or damaged, preventing a proper vacuum and seal. Cleaning or replacing the gasket may resolve the issue. 3. Latch Not Locked – If the model has a latch, ensure it is in the locked position before attempting to seal. 4. Accessory Hose Inserted – If the accessory hose is inserted into the accessory port, the vacuum function may not work correctly. Removing the hose may fix the issue.
Checking these factors can help troubleshoot the problem.

If your FoodSaver V3460 FSFSSL3460-033 vacuum is not stopping and the bag is not sealing, check the following:
1. Bag Placement – Ensure the open end of the bag is correctly placed inside the Vacuum Channel. If not positioned properly, the vacuum may not function correctly. 2. Bag Leaks – Check for leaks by sealing the bag with air inside, submerging it in water, and applying pressure. If bubbles appear, use a new bag. 3. Wrinkles in Seal – Flatten the bag along the Sealing Strip before closing the lid to prevent wrinkles that could prevent sealing. 4. Custom-Sized Bags – If using a custom-sized bag, reseal about 1/4 inch above the first seal to ensure a secure closure. 5. Sharp Edges – Items with sharp edges may puncture the bag, causing air leaks. Use padding or special bags to prevent damage.
If the problem continues, inspect the Vacuum Channel and sealing strip for debris and ensure the unit is functioning properly.
