Hoover Wiring Connector - U...

Product details
Hoover part 26401317 is the wiring connector used inside the U5194 upright, the fitting that lets one section of the internal harness plug into another rather than being spliced permanently.
Connectors like this take a lot of quiet abuse. Every time the handle is reclined or the machine is moved, the harness flexes slightly at the connector, and years of that flexing loosen the contacts inside the housing even when the plastic shell looks fine. The result is electrical trouble that comes and goes: power that cuts out only when the cord is pulled a certain way, or a control that works intermittently rather than failing outright. Both symptoms get blamed on the motor or the switch far more often than the humble connector actually causing them.
Always unplug the vacuum before opening the housing to access this part. Because the replacement matches the original connector's shape and pin layout, the repaired joint holds a solid connection once it is reseated, without needing to modify or reroute the surrounding harness. A visual check alone rarely settles the question, since a connector can look intact while the contacts underneath have already lost their grip; if the machine cuts out only when the harness near this joint is flexed by hand, that is a fairly strong sign the connector itself, not the motor or switch, is the source of the fault.
