Hello Walter.
On a hunch, I'm fairly confident in saying that the wires on the power switch have been reversed, coming from the carbon brushes. (Sound's like 'someone' was inside the machine...) And yes, the motor will run backwards on a Kirby & do exactly what you've described. I seriously doubt there's anything wrong with the transmission. I hope this helps you Walter. Cheers & hagd all, Bill |

or, I should say, marketed solely to the UK, as Kirby is to the US, that offer options such as the Tech Drive? |
