Dyson Vacuum Cleaners Repair Guides
Free step-by-step repair guides for Dyson vacuum cleaners.
Battery Not Charging
When your Dyson Vacuum Cleaner won't charge, the most common causes are a dirty or obstructed charging port, a faulty cable, or a software glitch. Before assuming the worst, some simple troubleshooting can save you a trip to the repair shop.
Brush Bar Not Spinning
When a Dyson V15 brush bar stops spinning, it's usually because hair and fibers have wrapped around it so tightly that the motor can't turn it. Dyson vacuums have an automatic shutoff that stops the brush bar when it detects a blockage. A good cleaning almost always fixes this.
Loss of Suction
Loss of suction on a Dyson vacuum is almost always caused by a dirty filter, a full bin, or a blockage somewhere in the airpath. Dyson filters need to be washed monthly, but most people never wash them. A quick filter wash restores full suction about 80% of the time.
Pulsing On and Off
Reduced performance from your Dyson Vacuum Cleaner is usually caused by a blockage, clogged filter, or worn component restricting flow. Most of these issues can be fixed with basic cleaning.
