140242358079 Genuine 9m Cord Winder for Electrolux Vacuum Cleaners, Power Cord Rewind Reel Assembly

Part 140242358079 is a genuine Electrolux cord winder, listed as the 9m version, for Electrolux vacuum cleaners. The cord winder is the spring-loaded reel inside the vacuum that stores the power cord and pulls it back in when you press the rewind button. Other 9m cord winders appear in the catalogue under different numbers, so please match 140242358079 to your old winder or the parts list before ordering.

Vacuum cord won't rewind or keeps cutting out

A cord winder does two jobs. It winds the cord away neatly, and it carries mains power to the motor through sliding contacts in the reel. When the spring weakens or breaks, the cord stops rewinding or only goes halfway. A worn brake lets the cord whip back too fast or refuse to lock out. The bigger risk is electrical. Worn contacts or a damaged cord can make the vacuum cut out when the cord moves, spark, smell hot or trip the power. A damaged cord should never be taped up, it should be replaced.

Replacing the cord winder

Unplug the vacuum and keep it unplugged throughout the job. Open the body carefully, as the reel spring is under tension and should not be dismantled. Note how the reel sits and how its contacts meet the motor wiring, then lift out the old winder as a unit and drop the new one into the same position. Reassemble fully before plugging in and testing the rewind.
