Remove the 10 Phillips screws located on the bottom of the roller brush compartment. (Two of these screws are located under the wheels from the previous step.)

The screws have varying lengths, so keep track of where each one goes for reassembly.

Step 3

Remove the white plastic cover to expose the roller compartment underneath.

Step 4 — Motor

Make sure to untangle or unhook any wires that are connected to the motor.

Once this is done, you can replace the old motor with a new one.
