I replaced my 3D head with the RQ12 and now my replace shaver head indicator comes on. Any idea why?

If I remember right, the replace shave head indicator will come on after a certain number of shaves or a time line. It is just a reminder the heads should be change based on usage usually around a year or so. It cannot detect whether you have already changed the heads. The indicator will go off after a certain number of shaves. I cannot remember the exact amount but I believe it is under a 1/2 dozen or so.

This is from the Philips website FAQ: The shaving unit symbol is automatically shown for 7 to 10 successive shaves. After 7 to 10 shaves, it automatically stops. On most shaver models, you can also reset it manually. Press and hold the on/off button for approximately 10 seconds.

Hello - great question. I'm sorry, this replacement head is for the older 7000 Series shavers. The one that you need for your is: Braun Series 7 Single Pack Model 70S

Not sure. My shaver came with a spare, and when that wore out, I got a new shaver.

you need to go to the norelco website to be certain of what fits your model. in my case, the replacement heads did fit cut outs in the head of my reflex unit, but they did not sit in as perfectly as the originals. i took the new blades and put them into the old screens to get the best shave.

I have the same problem with my Braun 8995.. The base is useless, and has been since the 3rd week I've owned it.. Now the razor will no longer turn on and says to replace the foil.. I doubt that replacing the foil will fix anything with it not turning on, so I'll probably replace the razor with a different brand altogether.

Yes, the base that I have with my Braun 360 Complete doesn't recognize that the shaver is it. The shaver does something that makes me think it is aware of the base, so I think the base itself is malfunctioning. My unit is only three months old - not getting the reliability I was expecting.

On my RQ11 razor, the replacement fits pertectly. I did notice that one of the replacements sets that I received did not seem to last as long as my original set, but subsequent replacements have worked great. I believe there was just an inferior batch that made it out of the factory. I have these heads set to automatically reorder then I don't forget to order again. love that feature.

I do not know. Here is what I do know. My husband looked on line about get a replacement shaver as the current one took too long to shave. That is when he learned that the shaver head is to be replaced every year or so. He went with the model of the shaver (not sure what it is) and then aligned it with the replacement blades. Sorry I could not be more specific.

It could be the charge controller , they are cheap and easy to replace . You can contact the razor for any generic type that is the same volts

Yes the RQ12 will fit on the 1090. The RQ12 is larger, so the razor will not fit in the travel pod with the head on it, and it will not fit in the jet clean, if you have one.Norelco has replaced the RQ12 with the RQ12+, so the old RQ10 & RQ12 heads will not be available much longer. The RQ12+ is recommended by Norelco for all 10xx and 12xx series razors, so you get the quality of the newer shaver without the expense of buying an all new razor. After you buy the RQ12+ then you only need to buy the SH90 to replace just the cutting blades, instead of replacing the entire head assembly.I have a 1090x and I've used a RQ12 on it, and I just replaced the head with a RQ12+.

No it's not normal. I v'e had my shaver for several years. I was concerned that the first shaver that I purchased might die pretty soon, so I bought another one.The only thing that the first shaver needed was a new blade. When the new shaver arrived, I took off the new blade and put it on my old shaver and it works good as new.

The ends of the batteries with the single metal strip show be the postive. Just make sure that end is pointed towards the head of the razor.Charge the razor and it's like new.

Philips says that RQ12 is the replacement head as the original RQ10 is no longer made. This should fit all "arcitec" shavers.
