An electrical short has likely occurred somewhere in the system. A complete check of all wall inlets and power unit low voltage control lead connections is required.
Why is there a loss or decrease of vacuum in my NuTone Central Vacuum Systems?
If your NuTone Central Vacuum System experiences a loss or decrease of vacuum, it might be due to several reasons. First, check if the debris pail is full and needs emptying. Second, there might be an obstruction in the hose; try inserting the handle end of the hose into the utility valve at the power unit to reverse airflow and dislodge clogs. Third, an obstruction could be present in the tubing system inside the walls; try using suction to clear it, or contact a service center if the blockage persists. Also, ensure all wall inlet covers are properly sealed and check for any clogs in the exhaust tubing or vent.
Why are all the lights flashing on my NuTone Central Vacuum Systems control panel?
If your NuTone VX550CC or VX1040CC Central Vacuum System has all lights on the control panel flashing when first plugged in, it might be because two or more hoses are plugged into the system. Inspect all wall inlets, the utility valve at the power unit, and the sweep inlet valve to ensure no extra hoses are connected.
What to do if my NuTone Central Vacuum Systems power unit won't stop?
If the power unit of your NuTone Central Vacuum Systems fails to stop when the hose is removed, it suggests an electrical short in the system. Conduct a thorough check of all wall inlets and the power unit's low voltage control lead connections. Turn off the system by removing the fuse or tripping the circuit breaker at the house fuse box.
