Bag light Electrolux Super J?

The bag light on my Super J wont go off and so of course I can't use the machine. I have checked that the hose is not clogged and there is nothing visible obstucing the motor inside the case. Can this be fixed ? Do I need to replace the motor?

Common problem. The bag safety switch inside the bag door has a bad connection, or wires have become disconnected. There are four screws on the inside face of the bag door. Once they are out, you can pull the front of the bag door off to inspect the safety switch and wiring. If you need a new switch, email me at arctic@worldlynx.net
