Black & Decker Dustbuster Flexi Questions & Answers

My Dustbuster after charging all night only runs for a minute and stops,I then switch off and on and it start running for 40 seconds and so on each time the run time gets less and less , is it time for a new battery ? Regards Bill
This is happening to me! Were you able to figure out how to fix this?
My question is quite simple: why can't I switch it OFF? Everything works fine. Motor is good; suction is good; holds a charge well. But for some reason I can no longer switch the thing off. It is stuck solid. I had to let the battery run out and then, surprisingly, it switched off as normal. Recharged it and guess what? It happened again; I just cannot switch if OFF. And I cannot access that area of the machine as there is nothing to take apart and have a look. It is now utterly useless. I've never known anything like it.
Switch cover has come off. Can I glue it back on?
My flexi has suddenly become very noisy. Any suggestions as to why that might be please?
Best put it in the bin .wear ear muffs if no electrical issues. A waste of money like most cordless equipment .
That’s odd. I don’t see many electric cars with chords
How long does the battery last and where can I buy a new battery
The charging light on my vacuum blinks continually blue and the unit does not charge. It is about 4 years old. Any advice.
Hi, When I plug the dustbuster flexi in it flashes like it's charging for about 20 seconds, then stops. if you unplug and plug it back in again it does the same thing. Any ideas? I don't know if it's a knackered battery that won't accept a charge or the charger itself is broken... thanks Gavin
My one keeps flashing until it’s fully charged, I think. I bought my one new and didn’t have any problem charging.

hi my dust buster will not charge no blue light ,but if i turn it on while docked light comes on ?
Can't say I have had this problem if it's on warranty return it . If not just check that the contacts are okay and the battery can run the cleaner for 15 minutes . If the battery is fully charged I noticed the light won't come on so maybe it has something to do with the battery memory reporting that it is full to the charger .....just a thought .
Black & Decker PD1800EL-XE 18V Lithium Flexi My Flexi Dustbuster won't switch on. The Blue light indicates it is charged. I think maybe just the switch maybe not working. Can this be fixed or what else could it be. Why won't it switch on. I love the little machine even though it blasts my ear drums. Appreciate your help thanks. Deb
so its off warranty? Sounds like a faulty switch if its charged and it won't work I would think it is the switch .I have noticed though that if the door on the dust collector is not closed correctly it will not work .Check this first and make sure the door is closing and activating the switch.
Thank you for quick response. Yes the door is closing correctly and the area is clean. The switch does seem to be harder to move i.e. to switch on & off. Can the switch be repaired or replaced, please Thank You Deb

How to remove the hose from the dust buster?
After being fully charged it only operates for two minutes, the row of lights flash then it goes off. Will repeat this failure after switching on again till battery goes flat. It should operate on full charge for around ten minutes? What is the problem and solution?
How does one know if the unit is charging? Is there an indicator light?
