Here we show how to replace a rug doctor cord and plug. This is applicable for to all Rug doctor might pro, X3, and wide track.
Here we have a Rug doctor Machine which does not turn on. There are two things that commonly cause this, the power cord or the GFI plug. The plug is easy to replace, the cord is more difficult.
This kind of failure is pretty normal in both vacuums and shampooers alike. There's some other electrical issues up in the handle with switches that can cause it to not turn on as well. But that is pretty rare and it is also a royal pain to fix. So we're going to do a cord on this right now because that's the most likely issue if you have no power.
