S500 was very nostalgic since they were my first introduction of miele. That and the S5 series.

great video. Our problem was no power, and the cause was a disconnect in the power cord just beyond the cord cap. My husband noted that the cable would be kinked at 90 degrees when the cord was taut. Using a electrical tester/voltage tester, he was able to determine power was not making it to the point of contact of cord to vacuum. So he cut off a 6 inch section of the power cord, including the cord cap, and replaced it with makeshift wires and plug, and voila - when he plugged it in, the vacuum worked! He thought the problem might be a break in the wires of the power cord near the cord cap, after he noticed there was no power at the point of cord reel transfer point, and that's how he determined the power failure was at the cable, and not anything else. Prior to that, he tested for continuity in the power switch and the cord reel (both of which tested fine).

The S500 series is like a Mercedes in a 140 body. These things were made by people for people. I still have a working Miele S 512 purchased in 2000

Hello, very good simple and clear tutorial and it was very helpful. Thank you so much.

Mine works fine with the exception that the cord keeps getting horizontal cuts in it. Probably cracks. Time to take it apart and replace the cord. This video was a great help!

I really need to try another Miele other than the Quick Step.

My aunt had a black Solaris Electro Plus. I love using it, and dream of getting one myself just like it, and maybe converting it to use an SEB236 power brush.

I have a Miele S514 and I need to find a replacement for the "closure/locking latch" that holds the top shut when vacuuming. Mine snapped off eons ago and I've been holding it closed with a very small bungie cord. (story of my life!!) I brought it to a Repair shop that repairs Miele's, but they said there is no replacement for that part. ??? Can that be true?? I'm also not able to see how one would get into that top part of the cannister to replace the latch. Can anyone help?

Hi,
i enjoyed your demo on how to disassemble a Miele S514.

I have a S514 Solaris ( type HS05, date of manufacture is 2002.

Today (Sept 24, 2023) the 6-setting suction speed dial stopped working. The suction speed is at the highest level.

Can you please tell me if - in genersl - this is something that can be repaired? I am totally okay to bring it to a repair-technician, but, here in Montreal (Canada) such companies usually charge upwards of $100, just to look at the machine....

i would greatly appreciate your advice on this.

Thanks!!
Catherine

Hi I have the C1 Titan. The vacuums motor still runs great but my husband broke the carpet attachment, the SEB 228 electro power brush, so I can only use the Miele on bare floors. I purchased a replacement SEB 228 but returned it because it didn't work when I attached it- I was told it would work with my model vacuum. I'm thinking the telescopic wand or the hose or both are damaged and may need to be replaced. I didn't realize both contain electrical wiring. Is there any way test the hose or the wand before purchasing replacement parts. If I have to replace all 3, I may just consider purchasing a new vacuum.

We love our S514 but there are a few issues. How do I find a repairman near me?

[Powerstrokemods]

Why don't you just disable the cord rewind switch? Put a jumper in it.
