Chosen Solution

The cord on my shark lift away, the prongs are about to break. Can I replace the cord?

Another option is replace the plug only, if the dog chewed close to the plug. That would shorten the cord a little. Or cut of the cord where bad and put a new plug, then use an extension cord. Hide from dog !

Yes you can… you can do it your self (if you feel confident in taking the vacuum apart) or you can take it to almost any vacuum repair shop and they will do it…

Great pics, thank you! Easy repair - the small orange wire nuts for #18 wire work well. Be careful not to over-tighten the black screws when putting back together as the heads will twist right off - as I did for the first one :/

I don’t have an answer. My cat chewed my cord. Is it safe to put the black electric tape around it? Pictures did not help me. I’m sure they are excellent, I just have a problem seeing the detail.

Most of the answers are not for the Shark Rocket model HV301, the motor is on the top of the stick and once you remove the screws for the top cover there are 4 additional screws that I can’t remove. Removing those 4 screws would get me to the motor and the cord attachment.
