Kirby F.ans Please Help Last week the Light bulb on my Kirby Sentera 2 did not go on I understand that is something that must be taken to a Kirby dealer service to get fixed.

If you can take off the hood its highly likely it's unplugged. I mean you can take it to a shop and spend $50-$75 to plug the light in for you. Look on YouTube I think it's 5 screws. You would spend 10 minutes watching a video. You would spend 15 minutes getting tools, fixing light and reassembling.
I promise it's easy it's on the left side there is 3 or 4 wires you follow those wires and right below the hood on the left side is likely where a wire came out of it's connector.
The link is a video on g5&g6. The sentria just has a couple more wires.
Pic 1 right where his hand is is where it's probably lose. The second pic is the same location. He tore apart the sentria 2. I screen shot to show you it's location. You need 2 torx a 15 and a 25. You will use the 25 on most bolts.

The vacuum came out in 2012, 8 years ago. It's likely a capacitor on the circuit board blew out, or the LED bulbs reached end of life if it was used a lot.

It could be that too. I just don't want him to get jacked around over something small.
If everything is plugged in take it to a shop.

Correct. Process of elimination. Simple things first, and then if that fails, move onto the next diagnosis.
