Edge-Sweeping Brush
The most common failure mode is 'Clogged Brush Hub' where hair and carpet fibers wrap tightly around the brush shaft and beneath the plastic hub. This creates enough friction to stall the motor. Replacing the brush ensures a clean mounting surface and removes any debris that cannot be easily unwound from the old brush.

Edge-Sweeping Brush Module
If the brush does not spin after cleaning, the internal gear assembly or the DC motor within the module has likely failed. The i7 module is prone to gear stripping if the brush is repeatedly jammed by debris or rug tassels. This complete assembly is the OEM-recommended service part for motor or gearbox failures.

Side Brush Replacement Screws
The side brush is held to the motor shaft by a single screw; if this screw backs out or the threads strip, the motor shaft will spin inside the brush hub without transferring motion. While newer i7 brushes have captive screws, loss of the screw or stripping of the motor shaft hole prevents the brush from engaging.
