Check the hose connection points on the vacuum for debris and buildup. Clean these areas with a soft cloth or compressed air. Additionally, check if the connection points check if not bent or corroded.

Take the replacement conductive hose and align it with the vacuum's connection socket. Make sure that the ends match the connected vacuum hose ends into the connection socket of the vacuum. Place the ends in orientation with the vacuum. Push or twist the hose into position until it feels secure or clicks into place.
