    Very Helpful video. I have a V7 and a V8. The V7 has been having the pulsing problem for nearly 2 years. I always take the filter out and clean it and it works again without pulsing for 10 minutes then back to pulsing. The filter is always packed with dust. I typically tap it the sink and get lots of dry dust out. Every so often I also wash it. But the pulsing issue returns shortly thereafter. I finally took one extra step: I took the sealed cyclone unit off and washed it under running water through all the internal (invisible) paths both through the holes around the top and through the bottom. The amount of dirt that came out was incredible including big chunks of mud. Black water came out for at least 15 minutes and the water wasn't clear until I had washed it for at least 30 minutes. Apparently there was so much build-up inside the cyclones that they stopped working efficiently and the dust went straight through and into the filter causing it to clog very fast. After this "super-cleaning" it works like when it was new!

      A V7 and V8 filter should almost never accumulate dust on the removable filter. It means that either the internal cyclones are clogged with caked on dirt OR you are overfilling the bin and large debris is entering the fine cyclones and then making their way to the filter. The solution is to always empty the bin regularly and never exceed the fill line on the bin, and you probably will need to full dissassemble the cyclone assembly and clean all the internal parts. Admittedly this takes a while and can be tricky/messy. There are videos on how to do it. At work we remove the cyclone assembly from the motor and then wash the whole cyclone unit in warm water with antimicrobial hand wash and then dry it infront of a powerful fan overnight + compressed air gun, because we don't have time to fully dissasemble, clean, and reassemble the cyclone. Again, the main reason that we need to do that deep cleaning is people overfilling the main bin.

    My Dyson was doing just this, pulsing and not sucking and after cleaning the filter it was still not working so I had a hunt through TH-cam and came upon your channel - thank you so much for your clear instructions on how to remove the relevant parts, clean and them put them all back and I am most certainly not a DIYer! It didn't take long and I kept my fingers crossed as I started using the machine again - bingo, its like a new machine, I can't thank you enough. I've even ordered 2 new filters from your recommendations so I never have to wait 24 hours for the filter to dry. I feel so happy that I've managed to do this myself because I really thought the machine was finished!! I'll also be recommending your site to friends - if I can do it then anyone can. Top Man !!

    You are brilliant! I went through numerous videos trying to figure out why my Dyson v8 was pulsing and stopping. Did everything that you and others suggested. Cleaned filters and put back on in 24 hours after dry. Pulled vacuum apart and cleaned every nook and cranny. Still no luck. So per your suggestion I ordered new replacement filters. Coming in 2 days.
    But just at the end of your video you mentioned the problem could be the the seal of the cannister door flap. I cleaned the rubber gasket even more. Plus I realized that sometimes when I slap the door closed, it is not perfectly flat and sealed to the cannister. Just off the tiniest bit. So when I closed the door more carefully.... guess what? No more pulsing or stopping. That little detail that you mentioned solved my problem. Thank you so much!!!!!

    I have a Dyson DC44 Animal cordless since 2013. I use it for steps, bathrooms and quick pickups. I make sure I empty after every use. It works fine. I also had a purple upright. Can’t remember model, that was a tank. It picked up and never a problem. Wife dropped it down stairs. She rarely vacuums and dropped it. Jeez. Thought I’d get a Shark Apex. It is a great machine with loads of attachments, but it never cleaned like my Dyson. Now I got a v15. It is amazing. It’s picking up pet hair that my Shark never could, and only in two passes. I love it. Learn your Dyson. Keep it clean and filter clean. It will serve you well.

    For units with the long slender cone shaped filters, it is important to detach the fabric portion of the filter from the plastic support...as you mentioned...and remove any dirt that has accumulated at the bottom of the filter cage. It can't be removed by simply running the filter under water. Glad you mentioned that the filter should be detached to accomplish this. Whenever my V6 starts to pulsate, this is the reason.

    I have a V8. Best vacuum I have ever had. You briefly mention on the back filter. After disassembling, unsnapping the main components, I washed them in the sink. The part with the cone and steel fine perforated screen discharged mud, for many wash cycles. After letting everything dry, the cleaner worked marvelously, EXCEPT for when the back filter was on. As soon as I clipped it on, the surge came back. Taking it off the machine worked as new. The issue is, it blows directly in your face. Washing it did not help. It is sealed, and the outside plastic shields the filter. I took a screwdriver and split the glued join between the outside cap and body. The exposed filter element, under water then again spewed mud. Let it dry, don't worry about the outside shell, just put the filter on and the blast is directed sideways away from your face. The unserviceability of this filter is I suspect a cynical ploy to enslave us to Dyson spare parts. Who would have thunk it?

    A few years ago I was talking to an old guy who ran a small vacuum cleaner repair shop. His favourite Dyson was the very first one. He said it was entirely held together with self-tapping screws and you could take the thing entirely apart to clean it. No HEPA filters or anything else like that either.

    love my Dyson, v7 or 8 - couldn’t recall the model as there is no indication on the unit. In any event, i clean the filters and bin on a fairly regular basis. When the intermittent on/off issue occurred, even after a thorough cleaning, I found a small wad of dust or dog hair blocking the flap from properly closing. Brilliant solution and more cost effective than ordering another vac…. Cheers!

    Thank you!!!
    I got a Dyson V8 for pets from my bosses, as they noticed it is pulsating and just bought a new one. It smelled horrible, and I got a really tough job to do but still a wonderful vacuum I want to save and use as when it works it works so lovely and it's not loud. I literally kept it in my storage room for a year as I couldn't find time for it, I knew it would be dirty work and mess up my apartment lol.
    It was used for years in the place with 2 short hair shedding dogs and 2 babies/toddlers, so about the hair and dirt, name it, sticky cheerios, the sore smell of vomit, dairy whatnot was coming from that vacuum. And my bosses long nice thick hair clogged in the brush for the start, together with tons of dogs hair that didn't show until I ran the brush part alone through hot water, and the dust was cemented.... that thing was totally full and about to die!!!
    Then I started watching these videos and bit by bit I solved the pulsating issue.
    Oh my there can be many reasons and sometimes they cannot be fixed in a short time or even one day. Took me a few days to go through all of it.
    Washing the filter takes time to dry and so on. A lot came out of it.
    The one I got was clogged wherever I opened it, there was cemented dirt everywhere, and I've found and solved at least 5 issues until I got it work with no pulsing, but then it would just go off if I try the powerful mode, so I realized the battery is bad as well, it just stops. It would work for awhile if I use it on low and it does a wonderful job on my fake lamb fur rugs, and in my small place makes miracles.
    So the issues can be in the brush area, in the main tube, in the dirt container, and for this one, that rubber around the opening of the container, this one had it not sealing at all as it was filled with dirt and the rubber was folded so for sure no pressure of sealing. They tried to put duct tape around to seal it but once I cleaned the rubber using hot water and stretched it with the small flat screwdriver and ran all the dirt through hot water, it sealed and apparently nothing was broken. I thought some plastic part broke but that was not the case.
    For sure take out the filter on the top, I've found so much dirt and short dog hair in it. I washed all the tubes in the hot water, after I separated them, and all the other parts I could. The only thing I didn't want to open was the part around the motor that has a screw in it so that's my last option.
    I ordered a replacement battery, will put it to use tomorrow, and if it still loses power I will try that part, cuz I'm sure if cemented dirt could reach somewhere, this vacuum has it
    This is not the first time I have donated very expensive vacuum people broke. I work in people's homes so often they donate or offer things. Or just want me to dispose of them or recycle them.
    The year before I got one I didn't bother to fix. Literally, some woman with long thick hair, or the teenager, cut it short at home, and cut the amount of hair to make a wig, and vacuumed it. The vacuum and the brush was so clogged I didn't bother just threw it in the trash.

    One of his first designs was his best; the Fantom Thunder upright, was terrific. almost nothing got to the HEPA filter at all,it all wound up in the dust collection bucket. Sadly, he figured out that if he made great products, no one would ever buy another. so the rest of his products were designed with planned obsolescence as part of the design.

    Thank you!! I'll have to ck that space out. My Dyson stick was pulsing and I thought it was the battery, so I bought a new one. But it's still pulsing so I haven't used it. I will let you know! That would be really great!

    Great vod. I thought I had a filter issue cause my dyson kept saying that but didn't even think about blockage... Turns out a cat that sheds 24/7 will eventually block up a vac.

    Great video and well presented, but I accidentally found myself here after looking to see if I could turn my V11 Absolute into a blower, because it's absolutely useless as a vacuum.... all it does is throw any larger particles like cereal around the room so you find yourself chasing bits all over the house and if you're brave enough to put it on boost be prepared to get some ear protectors because it's like a jet taking off.
    My advice to avoid the pulsing is to not waste your money on buying a Dyson in the first place, as it's been the most expensive mistake I've ever made, because who ever designed it cannot have kids for sure, but hey you live and learn.

    The absolute best cleaning method I have found with y V6 is blowing it out with compressed air using a pistol grip with a small tip. There is so much fine dust that collects everywhere and 5 minutes of repeatedly blowing from the top and bottom will provide much better suction after cleaning. Obviously this procedure should be done outside.

  • @barlowsmith6242

    Also one other bit to look for - within the suction tube there are air flow holes which can build up compacted dust, I would recommend using a thin stick and just scooping that out - the amount of rubbish that came out shocked me
