*A great vacuum💯 for the price. The suction is awesome **MyBest.Tools** excellent for pet hair. The beater attachment works great on the stairs. Not too heavy and easily maneuvered.🤨*
It’s a rubbish vacuum!! Not good quality like a SEBO Felix.
*I absolutely love this thing for cleaning all flooring surfaces **MyBest.Tools** even does a great job on throw rugs. Highly recommend! Cuts cleaning time in half!*
Video just saved me from buying a new vacuum! I had so much hair jammed up around the spindle housing that it seized the whole assembly. Had to break it down to the motor to get them out and clean the debris. At least this video showed me that they can come off. Working good as new now.
Wow ... just a great video. Simple, informative, no frills. Very educational. I removed my brush bars earlier to find all that junk compacted. Didn't know about the Torx screws inside the spindles, though. Was wondering how I could clean underneath the spindles. Now I know. Thank you!
Had this happen today to my UP20 (Dyson Ball Animal 2). Thought I just needed a new brush bar. Good thing I found this video!
I was struggling with how to get the brush bar off. Great video and yes, the head was clogged with hair 🤦🏼♀️ . Thanks for uploading.
Saved me from buying an entirely new vacuum! Thank you!
Thanks for the video! What filter brands do you recommend to purchase when replacing the washable filters. Also, how often should they be replaced?
Long winded but good information. I'm pulling my brushes right after lunch. Thanks.
Thanks! Great information
Thanks, very helpful
Dyson sent me a new cleaning head under warranty a little over a year ago & the same thing has happened again. I wish I had found this video earlier. I am still under warranty but I doubt they will send me another one. Cleaned it all out & the cat hair had compressed into a hard disc. Still only picking up on half the brush.
Exactly what happened with mine. I guess no other way to fix it but to replace the whole brush head assembly unit
good advice for a great vacume 👍
Good video. I just bought a DC65. It's been only used once and somehow the brush bar doesn't spin at all. I've taken apart as shown in your video and nothing to clean. Do you think I need a new power head?
Thank you
Love the vacuum but what is the exact name for the torque screwdriver inside the spindles
Clean each side, or just the small end? Does removing the long end cause damage? I think I misunderstood.
I have the Multifloor 2 (UP19) and I am stumped. My brush won't spin. I've looked for debris, I've ripped the head apart like in your video to clean the shaft, and mine won't spin. I'm starting to wonder if it's an electrical issue?
So the middle black thing snapped off of my vacuum cleaner just like yours did on the right side .is there anyway to just buy the little black thing ? Everything else is working fine except that little black side that snapped off. I have to buy the whole head?
Hey - do you think you could make a video on dis-assembling the entire power brush motor housing and re-assembly - I took my DC 41 (UP13) completely apart to clean each piece - then got distracted due to a water problem in the house that took 2 weeks to fix... when I got back to the Dyson - my dog knock everything on my work bench to the floor - I had to crawl around to fine every screw and plastic part - I kinda put the housing of the motor however i am confused as to what screws are which and Dyson does not have a chart, and no video on putting this Dyson together from piece by piece - I have two assembly problems, the Power Brush hosing with motor and the Ball unit I could use a video on how to put that power brush unit together, then the ball unit from the piece by piece - Help !!!!
I have a Dyson Ball Animal 2, do you know if the DC65 power head is the same?
T-10 size torx screwdriver bit is needed to remove the spindle... tons of hair and junk back there!
Very Good!
The best video ever but it is too late. I need new power brush now. I am not sure why people are still shown canister needs to be cleaned and how to do videos. This video is way far better where actually problem can occur.
DON'T FORGET!!!!! Clean the bearings on the end of the bars...where that black bracket that fastens to the vacuum head - hair gets in there and causes massive friction and slow down. Mine was melted by the time I got to it. I know it doesn't look like stuff will get in there, but do it. The centre screw on the outside of the bar detatches it from the bearing. It's worth it to go in there and clean it out. Believe me...mine MELTED....
Whats the name of the torque screwdriver that takes them put thank you
I cleaned my powerhead, thanks to you...can you also tell me what a fix would be for a Dyson DC 66 that periodically wont upright...it will take me sometimes about 5 times before it will upright...thanks Heather
Hey heather your comments old but I had that issue because the ball wasn’t tightened enough maybe check that
Thanks for the video. If the black spindles are broken, in your opinion, I need to replace the whole Powerhead?
Thanks, I bought a new powerhead, it now works like a champ again. These vacuums are pretty well designed in that you can keep throwing inexpensive (IMO) parts at it. Great video, just what I needed.
Are you able to purchase those individual parts, or are you forced to buy the entire power head?
I installed both new rollers, them had to to remove them and clean everything as shown in your video. The roller motor now works for a few seconds and then stops.
Is that simply a damaged motor? There is zero animal hair or debris anywhere .
feels good

The links need to be updated please.
Mine just broke today on a couple month old purchase.
I have a dc66.how do you remove the spindle after taking the screws out?
They just pull off.
Does this Dyson have a belt?
This is really horrible design. This will be my first and last Dyson. Glad I got refurb. I'm lucky that only the smaller side snapped. I cleaned visible hair but never thought to completely disassemble to this extent. Madness.
Edit: I was able to fix mine for now. The little plastic nub that breaks off from the motor can be screwed into place if you have a screw that's small and long enough to secure it deeply through the brush cap/spindle as well. We'll see if this holds up or if I have opposing forces in there that will bung it all up. If this doesn't work will bust out the drill and connect both ends of brush together with one bolt-through assembly.
I own a dc-77 currently. Dyson has excellent customer service and has no Problems sending replacement parts when emailed with description and phot etc. This dual bar design is illogical and obviously a common failure point when the spindles break. For a 500$ vacuum, this is unacceptable. I’ve owned 3-4 Dyson vacs and I think this is the only one that’s had a dual beater brush design. It’s a great vacuum with terrific suction however another major design flaw is the air intake port leading from the power head to the vacuum body is VERY EASILY clogged. My German Shepard used to love shredding boxes and YES we’d pick up the pieces but even small slivers mixed with bit of hair etc (even pieces size of a dime or nickel) and clearing the path is a PIA because the clogged intake area is right behind where the two brush bars meet under the motor spindle cover.
They can build the part (spindle belt driven gear) with a more durable materials but instead they choose to make it from cheap plastic so that it will break after a couple of years and you have to buy a new vacuum.
@@nguyenhoang-kw1fc yes. Sad ending to the Dyson story.
Can you tell me if there is a belt under the black thing that the two brushes that go into it? Thanks.
I recently disassembled my powerhead and can confirm that there is a belt under that black housing. The belt on my powerhead was ripped, but the housing also had similar damage to the one in the video, so I ended up buying a new powerhead from Dyson.
@@vgiii956 Thanks.. I threw the vacuum away because I didn't want to buy a new power head.
My Model 41 has a hex screw, not a torx
2:56 So I unscrewed the screw but can't take them off. How do I clean it then?
I had the same problem/question. Finally, I wiggled those black knobs back and forth while pulling outward and they just pull straight off (with some effort). This comes 2 months after your question, so you've probably resolved this, but thought someone coming after us might have the same question. While this video was very helpful, it left me asking "more" to see that next step (removing those knobs).
Has anyone else found the Philips head screws super easy to strip because the screw driver head does not fit deeply enough? The brushes are super easy to clean, but those Philips head screws are ridiculous to get in and out!
I think they are actually pozidriv screws and not phillips
Happened to mine. $600+ for a vacuum that has a crap design is upsetting. Had to order a whole new head for piece of plastic. Unbelievable. Now I'll be doing this
To be fair we used the crap out of it lol. DC65 Pet... emphasis on pets 😂
Exactly. This happened to ours even with routine maintenance. You pay $400+ for a vacuum, then Dyson expects you to pay $100 for replacement parts every year or two. Poor design and Dyson laughs all the way to the bank. There’s a reason Consumer Reports no longer recommends Dyson.
@@dbowers3 It comes with 5 years warranty so I doubt they expect you to pay for replacements parts every year or two.
@@timsteele9372 Nope. I went through this with them last year. Vacuum was 14 months old and one of the drive gears sheared off. After 2 months of fighting with Dyson, they refused to replace the head. Their exact words were, “This is a life-limited part and is not covered under the warranty.”
@@dbowers3 My first Dyson lasted over 12 years & I never had this happen. New Dyson it's happened twice in 4 years. Cheaper parts, I imagine.
I cleaned the spindles and found a whole lot of hair there. My problem is that the short brush spins where as the longer one doesn't and after cleaning too no difference. What can be the problem and how can I fix it? Please help!
Try popping the black ends off the beater bar and cleaning there too. Those should spin freely but the little bearing in the end gets stuck form gunk. Little wd40 probably wouldn't hurt once you get it cleaned and spinning nicely. TBH that's probably the reason the little triangle thing broke on the unit in the video and not the hair/dirt on the inside end. The outside end will be the one to freeze it up.
Has anyone opened the motor boxing for the spinning brush?
yes, I opened. there are another 5 torc screws to do so, 3 underneath the brushes, so these need to be taken off first.
Well ty youtube for having a solid AF algorithm. Shame on Dyson for designing an "animal" vacuum that this happens to. Mines just out of warranty and I can assure you, I've not used it enough in the 5 years to really constitute 5 years of normal wear and tear but here we are.
Sad the heads are 100 bucks and you cant just replace the tiny piece that shears off.
Yeah shame on dyson for making such a bad power head design. Even if a string or something gets caught in it it’ll chew up whatever gets in the brushbar.
ahh damm this happened to me
planned obsolescence via poor design. you should see the bearing inside the housing...probably even worst.
This is why Dyson is garbage.
