Thank you very much. I had a similar silvercrest vacuum cleaner with exactly the same problem. I made the repair with your directions and worked fine.

Thanks for this,my mom has one of these and it stopped working. I don't know much on how MOSFET should be connected, should I connect the 1st pin to the drain or to the gate? In the schema, two drain are shown, one in red, the other on yellow, does it make any difference to which drain I should use? Thanks again for the detailed information and analysis

Probably it was Yogesh, but hard to tell without complete circuit details. A complete circuit is impossible to draw without info on the 14 pins controller ic used here. With the found solution it was no longer needed.

PS: If you click on the photo of the controller board with the 2 red stars in it, zooming-in and scrolling over the entire component side layout is easily possible. This gives a more close-up detailed view on the Silvercrest board. Jestine added this nice touch to be able to examine where exactly the two tracks were cut to fix and modify the vacuum cleaner!

Very ingenious as usual! I am amazed to see how you go so deep in each and every circuit and bring out the essence for people like us to learn! Great work indeed! Very laudable! Many thanks for sharing!
