I have a 2002 model 1275 that's broken. It looks different than this one. I'd like to attach the new head to the old base. Are they interchangeable?

My old 1275s were from circa 1999, and the old harness fit the new device. So yours should fit. If they don't fit, you could either re-wire them with using the new harnesses or return them.

I changed out my smoke alarms because they had yellowed and were unsightly. I did change the base because it was yellow also. However, the new alarm would fit on the old base. I did not rewire because the connection is the same. mine were 1999 models.

As long as the hard wire connector fits, the base should not be an issue. However, if the hard wire connector fits, the swap out of the old base for the new is relatively easy. I swapped out the base on 7 units, primarily so colors matched. The old base was off white and the new base white. Plugged the hard wire connector in and everything was good to go. My old units were installed in 2003 so they should be pretty similar to your 2002 models.

My model number on the bottom of the unit is HX8140 but the bottom of the box has model HX8111/12. You can go to Philips Web site and ask them. I have used both model replacement heads and they both work fine - I purchase the lowest price at the time. I don't know why they have so many model numbers or why the number on the unit doesn't match the number on the box.

Not sure of the difference, but I received mine with the DiamondClean heads. Of the only two size heads I have seen on Amazon.com, these have the narrower base.

I have read that they are not interchangeable. The remote and base sync up on the newer units.

Hello, dear customer, if your existing head connector is the standard dimension (20mm Common Interface of the internal thread) , you can replace your shower head directly. There is no special connection needed. Any questions, please contact us again. We are always here glad to serve you. Best regards. LemonbestAny

Yes, if you have a straight-shank one. Locating the stop hole on the base is a trick but once a stopping pin is inserted and the existing head is spun off in the same direction that it rotates it comes off and one of the included nuts does work.

Before placing the order I've read that HQ55 parts have been discontinuated by Norelco and replaced by HQ56, thus I decided to proced. It fitted perfectly to my razor model 6990 which also says use only HQ55 heads.

Yes the base is the same. You might want to replace the base with the new once because of discoloration. But it will fit.

hello, it states in the listing at the bottom, the models that these replacement heads will fit, and the one that it won't, also there is a 800 number to call if you look on the back of the package of the photo showing how to replace the head, I would say yes it does..............

In my experience the heads are not interchangeable, but even if they are, I would not recommend buying this unit as it NOT powerful enough. After spending nearly $100.00 on this and being less that impressed with it, I went on EBAY sand bought a "used" HoMedics PA-1, which I am no longer able to find "new". This unit is easily twice as powerful. If you don't want a really strong concussion unit, buy the Thumper. It is very well constructed, but weak. Good luck.

I purchased it for the "multi-attachment" base but everything that I have seen seems to look compatible. Hope this helps!

No, this head connects to the existing hardware. It comes with the 2 pins that hold it to the lift mechanism. Very easy to install.

I don't know...haven't tried since the heads that it comes with fit it perfectly.

Yes, I used this model to replace an older 1276 unit and it connected to the existing base and connector without any problems. It was a quick 30 second install.

I don't think it will work. Try the HQ5R heads, they replaced the HQ5. Amazon should have them in stock. I think the are going for $13.88 right now.

It did for me. I was able to use the prior installed mounting plate. The wiring was the same, so the interconnection to the other 1276 unites that were not replaced worked as well.

You would have to find one with the correct thread count to screw it on. But the head is removable, because it also comes with a face plate for turning bowls and other hollow forms. Also, replacement parts can be ordered through Harbor Freight Tools, as they sell the same model.
