My Electrolux Ergorapida Ultra+ will turn on, but shuts itself off after a few seconds.It has been on the charger and should be charged up.

Mine is doing the same thing. But it does run strong for the few seconds it does run. Suspect the printed circuit board. It is a two speed motor, so if you tap the button a second time quickly before it turns off, it runs in the "low" mode.

Mine did the same thing after a few months. It did not matter how long I charged it the battery simply would not hold a charge. I purchased mine at Costco, I returned it indicating that this model has a defective battery and they took it back with no problem. I think the batteries for these vacuums are simply defective.

I think it's supposed to have an automatic shut off. Maybe yours is not working proper? Send it back.

Mine is still working great so I only have a couple suggestions. Try to reset unit by leaving it turned ON until it completely dies. Then recharge unit and try it again. If still won't work, try a different Bluetooth device. Make sure Sharkk light flashes blue.

Make sure its fully charged. I only figures this out after testing it out and seeing very short videos of the test. I know there has been some complaints of malfunctioning, but mine works fine.

That is what we did and battery would not charge after only a few months. I do not know if letting it completely discharge before recharging and not storing it in its built-in storage bracket will help. Electrolux is absolutely no help with this, nor with replacement parts or service.

Your battery may not be dead! IT'S PROBABLY THE CHARGER. I purchased a second battery so we can always have power regardless and found that the charger was just not charging. I unplug the charger for about one minute and plug back in. It then will fully charge the batteries. There are many times I don't get a full charge and unplugging the charger and allowing it to reset works every time. We use the vacuum daily and the original battery is at least five years old and works just fine even today. IT'S PROBABLY THE CHARGER.

When I first got mine, I charged it for a least 24 hours. The On/Off switch should function easy to turn the device on/off. I am not sure WHAT is the problem with yours. It very well may be a defected device......?Sorry, Wish you luck...!

Mine was totally uncharged and I plugged it in and started using .. It was ok .. I dont know about indefinitely but certainly for those 10 minutes, it worked without a hitch.

I found out it wasn't the unit - the cord/charger was bad. A lot cheaper to replace than the main unit. If you know someone else with the same model, try borrowing their charger cord and testing it with your unit. Odds are that's the problem. Good luck.

I recently had a problem as well. The battery started not to fully charge. I purchased a new battery and it was better but, it still does not fully charge. I don't know if it is the battery, the charger, or perhaps the vacuum itself. In your case, it sounds like the charger maybe defective because it is has been my experience the charger only flashes (blue light) when the battery is in the cradle. I would order a new charger and battery (if the battery is old) or first replace the charger and see what happens. Good luck!

Sounds to me like you may have a faulty one. Mine charged up just fine, and I am still doing well with it. I would contact the company. Sorry I could not be of more help.

I had the same problem. Bought 2 Vitality toothbrushes from 2 different Target stores and had the same problem. I am about ready to take back the second and try a Sonicare. According to the Braun U.K. Forums, the battery/charging unit is a real problem. Supposedly, if the toothbrush is left in the on position it won't charge. Problem is there is no on/off indicator. Horrible design decision.

Mine just started doing this too. It turns on but shuts off after 2 seconds. Last week it worked fine.

Make sure it is fully charged before you turn it on. Mine worked for only a few weeks though.

I had this problem. It did not turn off on me this morning. I called Wahl and they are sending a replacement. Let's see how the new one works.

Try a very strong magnet moved around the bottom of the handle... since it is an induction charging system, sometimes they just need a boost to get them started. Mine stopped charging and I took a strong rare earth magnet, rubbed around the bottom and sides of the handle for a min or two and put in charger. Has been charging just fine ever since.

Mine is oval & like Stuart Wilkes, I have to push the button a few times to get it turned on. I now rinse the brush & tap it gently on the side of the sink before putting back on the charger. It seems the charger doesn't like any amount of water dripping down.
