Product details
Part 60900 is the cord reel for the Eureka 6975A Excalibur canister: the spring-loaded spool that winds the power cord back into the body. It is supplied as the reel only.
Retraction is what fails. The spring loses its tension, or grit and a kinked cord bind the spool, and the cord starts coming back halfway, stopping dead, or needing a hand feed to go anywhere at all. Some reels give up the other way and snatch the cord back hard enough to whip the plug. Either way the cord ends up living outside the machine, where it gets trodden on and eventually cut.
Wind the new reel to the tension the original carried, feed the cord through its channel, and pull and release it several times before closing the housing. Unplug the vacuum first - the reel sits on the mains side of the machine.
