Ok I replaced one of these motors in March and I noticed the vacuum wasn't sucking real good. So I open the top and two of the motors are melted and I see why.

It seems the motors have been sucking the trash into the motors because the vents at the bottom were packed plum full of vacuum trash.

What would cause this? I know I am going to have to get three whole new motors but I don't want to put them on if it is going to do the same thing and suck the trash

into them. Could it be bad wiring?

Or the filter bags are not in correctly if they are like the JE Adams bags that have the plastic band that needs compressed out of round to get to fit in the hole.
