Replace changeover valve (P/N 922625-03) on Dyson DC40
This video shows how to replace a damaged changeover valve on a Dyson DC40. It was working OK from the hose but not sucking very well when in carpet cleaning mode. The problem turned out to be a ripped changeover valve. I bought a replacement from Amazon for £6 (Dyson P/N 922625-03 "COV HOSE ASSY"). It's fairly easy to replace and only took about 10 minutes. The full video of the repair is shown below. You'll need a Torx T8 and T15 screwdriver bit.

It's day 43 of lockdown 2020 V1.0. It's incredibly quiet, hardly anyone is out of their houses. Everyone has learned to work from home. Zoom has become the most popular iPhone app. Everyone, including the kids, are having meetings on Microsoft Teams. Remote working has worked really quite well but everyone is keen to get back to normal. No music, no real story, just a walk around the village to...
Dell XPS 15 (9550) Swollen Battery

Showing faulty battery on Dell XPS 15 (9550) which causes the trackpad to raise up. The battery swells up due to a build up of gas. Dell advised to not use the machine. For safety I removed my battery until a replacement is received from Dell.
iPhone 7+ better call quality

Shows the difference in audio quality on phone calls before and after Apple did remote diagnostics and then asked me to do a complete reset and 'Setup as new iPhone'. Apple would not explain in detail what they did during the remote diagnostics session. I'm assuming the 'Setup as new iPhone' step either re-calibrates the microphones or downloads new settings from the Apple servers.

Jesus Crist can you record in better quality and move your arm out the way I can’t see where the f I put the screws back because your vid is so shit
What kind and size of screwdriver are you using at point 1:07 - I cannot even get going because I cannot get the screws to budge!!! 🤬Don't want to give up but I don't want to ruin the thread of the screw with my botched attempts.
You arm is on the way half a the time 🙄
Simple to follow, and I was able to fix my 12 year old Dyson.
Glad you got it fixed!
Just watched your video on 3/28/22 and installed a new one! Thanks for the tutorial. It helped so much.
Glad it helped!
Many thx for the step by step, screw by screw :) explanation. Ordered the part off Amazon for about $20.00 and installed per your video. Works like a champ thx!
Glad you fixed it!
Without your help, I wouldn't have been able to repair or change out the changeover valve ($9.00 part) on my Dyson DC40. I'm so grateful!
I'm glad you got it fixed! Nobody want's to make Mr Dyson even richer!
Just used your video to make the repair successfully. Many thanks!
are all of the dyson uprights mostly the same as regards this? I have this problem and i have the DC75 and was wondering if the steps would be the same pretty much.
I'm afraid I don't know. I've only got a DC40.
Very helpful video for me to complete the job. Thank you!
Thank you so much, got my machine back running again. Much appreciated!!
Really helpful. Thanks!
Thank you so much!!! This video helped me a lot to order the right part and replace it. Saved me 500$ to buy a new dyson.
Thank you very much. Helpful.
Overall, VERY helpful. Thank you! 2 small critiques: (1) volume is VERY low; and (2) sometimes you would say things like "and put this here" while your hands were in the way and I could not see the "this" or the "here." But that said, this was great. I especially like that you said what size bits were needed for the screws. Since most bit kits, including mine, do not typically include a T8, it was good to know what size I needed.
All good points, to be honest I had no idea almost 35,000 people would watch the video. My son and I made it very quickly. If I had any idea this many people would be watching we'd probably have done a better job.
Exactly what I needed and easy to follow. Thank you!
Yes, we tried an IPhone 7 and the call sound quality stunk. Our 6S was better.
Thanks so much Andrew for your video. It saved me $400 USD on a new vacuum. God bless.
Great to hear!
Great instructions, I followed to a red and got it done in ten minutes, got lucky getting that screw with the plastic piece back in.
I guess I'll be buying a new one, this is too complicated
Well, if you are going to buy a new one, and don't really care if you destroy your existing one, why not give it a go?
Hello, thank you so much for the video. It was very easy to follow and informative. The only minor thing I would add to this is when putting the replacement hose there is a slot in the back that the hose slides into. Again appreciate the help.
Glad you got it fixed!
Thanks so much for your time and willingness to share your knowledge and expertise. Your tutorial has helped many people to change out this defective part. Thanks again.
Cheers, I really can't believe how many people have watched it! Over 30,000! Are there really that many DC40's out there?
Fantastic! I fixed my vacuum (which I had found in a dumpster when someone was moving out of a nearby house).
Epic video, easily followable. I’m about to tackle this myself as “push along” mode is as much use as a chocolate teapot on mine!
Good luck!
Thanks Andrew - instructions worked a treat!
Glad you got it fixed! Happy 2022!
You rock! Thank you!
Brilliant video, only needed to watch it once and got the gist and all sorted 👍🏻
You made this way, way easier than the methods shown by others. THANK YOU Andrew!
Great video! Thanks for putting this up. Had the same issue and fixed it in £10 using this tutorial.
I did all that with taking my vacuum apart. And I can’t find the problem.
Hi Andrew. V clear and constructive vid. This may be covered in comments, but not only am I having major league problems with the “fiddly screw”, I’m struggling to get any purchase on the easier one above it (if that makes sense) and the earlier one which secured the pipe to the machine. Just seem to be turning forever. Guess I’ve already knackered the thread? Thanks S
I'm not really sure, I wonder if you can add some glue to the thread before putting it back in?
@@andrewjones586 Thanks. God knows. Got the fiddly one in eventually, so it’s just the other two. Don’t know how a I could have knackered thread, as just unscrewed and tried to retighten.
Would never had figured out how to disassemble without your video! Vacuum repair store said they could not fix because part is on permanent back order. All internet searches confirmed that. Only place I finally found part was eBay.
I found the part available on Amazon here in the UK. Glad you got it fixed!
Thanks! Great video. You saved me $124!
Well done for getting it fixed!
the changeover valve was ok in mine but your handy video led me to a pencil of all things jammed inside it! thanks for the vid!
I'm surprised more stuff doesn't get stuck at that bend. I'm glad you fixed it!
Followed this video and did the entire thing in 10 minutes! As quoted elsewhere, it’s like a brand new vacuum. Thank you very much!
Glad you got it fixed.
Awesome, I just fixed my DC40 thanks to your instructions. Otherwise I had no idea how to get to that part 👍👍
What a great help best video on here on how to do this job, even an absolute novice with a toolset did it and I’m feeling proud with myself 😁 thanks pal 🤌🏻💯 and now the spiders don’t stand a chance
I'm glad you got it changed! To be honest Dyson products are not the easiest thing to start fixing! They always seem to be designed for maximum complexity. What you going to fix next...?
Very helpful information. Thank you. Top tip - when putting self-threading screws back into their holes - turn the screw backwards until the threads click then screw in normally. That way you don’t risk it cuttings new thread and stripping out the hole. One that happens the screw will never screw tight. :-(
Thank you so much for this video. Very easy to follow with clear instructions. Dyson is now working like new.
I'm glad you got it fixed!
This was a lifesaver. My hardest time always is trying to remember where the screws went.
Exactly, there's always one that seems to be redundant!
Hi Andrew.. Thanks for sharing this awsome detailed video. I have changed mine one today and now its working perfect.. Saved almost £100...thanks
Just what I was looking for. I need to do this to fix my D40. Found in fact that the Change Over Valve was disintegrated between all the coils, and getting no suction. Thanks for the detailed steps. Parts ordered!
Got the part and tools today and did the fix. It’s like I have a brand new vacuum! 😃 Thanks for the video!
Really helpful video, many thanks Andrew.
Thank you☺️
Thank you for this. Fixed our dyson today. 👍
Where do I order this part
In the UK I got mine from Amazon
Thanks to this video I managed to replace my broken DC40 change over hose.
Great news!
Thank you! This was a great video. Very descriptive and helpful to change the COV. Was quoted $160 for the part plus labour from Dyson. Ordered the part from Ebay for a fraction of the price. Appreciate it!
Hi Avo, It's great you got it fixed. It makes such a difference!
Thank you so much for this I have just ordered one from Amazon. I'm unsure though what screwdriver you use. Is it a torque or torx or does it not matter? Amazon has torx sets for £6.and it does say t8 and t15 in there But not sure if they are the right ones. Appreciate any help thanks:)
Yes Torx it is. Like a little star shaped blade. Good luck swapping it over!
Thank you thats very kind of you to help. I was quoted £80 to get this fixed! I've ordered what I need for a total of £17 :)
@@dawn1549 we were the same, we were about to get a new one and then I realised the changeover valve had a hole. It's easy to change when you know what to do and very cheap in comparison! No point making Mr Dyson even richer! Let me know how you get on!
I've done it! you were right about one screw being a little fiddly but your blu tak tip worked perfect. Thank you so much its like new again :)
@@dawn1549 well done! I'm glad you got it fixed.
The part indicated here, P/N 922625-03, can be used for DC50?
Sorry, I don't have a DC50 so I can't say.
