Top-selling repair parts for Panasonic upright vacuums

• Dirt sensor eye. The dirt sensor eye detects dust and dirt as it passes the eye so you can see the amount of debris that the vacuum is picking up from the carpet.
• Beater bar drive belt. The beater bar drive belt connects the drive motor pulley in the nozzle assembly to the beater bar to spin the beater bar during vacuuming.
• Beater bar motor overload. The beater bar motor overload shuts off the beater bar drive motor if the motor overheats.
• Beater bar. The beater bar spins to agitate carpet fibers and loosen dirt in the carpet so the vacuum motor can suck the dirt into the collection chamber.
