Why does my Shark Vacuum Cleaner turn off on its own?
- HhomarkJul 26, 2025
If your Shark vacuum overheats, the thermostat will automatically turn the unit off. To resolve this: 1. Move the On/Off switch to the 'O' (Off) position. 2. Unplug the vacuum. 3. Empty the dust cup and clean the filters. 4. Check for blockages in the hose, accessories, and inlet openings. 5. Allow the unit to cool for at least 45 minutes. 6. Plug in the vacuum. 7. Turn the On/Off switch to the 'I' (On) position to restart the vacuum.
