Having problems with your Hoover Company Wind Tunnel U53019 Upright Vacuum ?
Hoover wind tunnel the red light dirt finder stays on
Answers :
There's a microphone inside the tube the dirt runs up. It listens for dirt coming up the tube. They just go bad and there's no making it better. You can either replace that entire assembly or ignore it. Fairly easy to replace. I'll include the part so you know what you're looking at.
Good luck! The Vac Dr.
