These instructions are for changing the switch and are great. My question is the switch isn’t listed as a needed part. How can I buy a replacement switch?

Mark Snowden - Reply

search for shark (your model number here) power switch. I found it on amazon and several other places. That’s also how I found these instructions.

James Avey - Reply

Great Instructions, except see notes on step 11 - there seems to be another step required to disconnect grey switch compartment.

Jonathan Steinberg - Reply

Agree with previous question on Step 11 - half of the compartment will not come out. I thought a wire was jammed somehow. My roller will not work. I took apart the vacuum from the bottom up and it works with direct power to it (with a testing circuit) but as i moved up the electrical system, it seems to be at the switch compartment somewhere. Switch itself seems fine for the main motor, but will not activate the roller. Any ideas?

I want to return it, it didn’t work right out of the box!!
