In case you decide to fix it yourself, here's a helpful tip I figured
out after fixing my Sears vacuum:  the web site for parts for Sears
appliances is this:

	http://www3.sears.com/

Note the "3".  It's not www.sears.com; it's www3.sears.com.  Personally,
I think parts.sears.com would be a better name, but Sears appears to
think that that would be too easy.

In my case, it was necessary to have the exact part number from the
broken part in order to find it on that site, but once I found that
and ordered it, the vacuum was good as new.
