YAY!! What an awesome video. I have never completely dis-assembled my Dyson before,the most I did was remove the canister. Your directions were spot on and easy for a senior to follow. I was so afraid I would miss a screw, but I not only took it apart, I got it back together. WHoopee. I can not tell you how caked on the dust/dirt was, but no more. I am saving this video in the event I need to do the cleaning again in the future. Thank you a million for this.You were the only one who recommended the T8 Torx. The magic tool!!
Hello! I love reading comments like this 😊. Glad this video helped you accomplish a new maintenance task! Thank you for posting. Appreciated!
Thanks, I completely missed the small black gasket on strip down but watched your video prior to reassembly and cleaned it👍🏼
Awesome!
Very helpful. My V6 was pulsing on/off and cleaning the HEPA filter didn't fix it. Tore it down following the video & it's working like new again!
For those curious, I didn't bother going past removing the piece at 3:12. That was the final piece I took apart. I rinsed everything that came off up until that part. Yes, you may as well clean inside the cyclone if you're going that far, but I didn't bother with it and it turned out fine. Seems like most of the dust is trapped outside the cyclone.
Great to hear! Love the success stories and thanks for sharing 👍👍👍
Wow....😂 you raised my 2x dyson v6 from the dead both are awesom tools which i love unfortunately i don't know why both are dead ...after i saw this video( your video) heyyy...i went very Quickly to my tools start "mission impossible" after an hour mission accomplished i did both like a new....again THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!!!
You’re very welcome! Thanks for the comment
Excellent video mate, really very well made and easy to follow. I made the mistake of vacuuming up some gypsum dust, which resulted in the intermittent shutting off issue. I'll be tearing this unit down today. Thanks again!
You’re quite welcome! Gypsum ehh? Oddly enough, my father did the same thing and was the reason I had to clean his! Best of luck to ya!
Excellent professional video, fixed our Dyson exactly as you shown, MANY THANKS!
Nice job! Great to hear and thank you!
Thanks for the video. Between you and I, got r fixed. The battery lights came on, but no power when trigger pulled. One correction, I had a SV04 and there are only 4 screws in the second set of screw removal.
Hmm, interesting. I suppose screw count will depend on model. Glad you got r fixed! Appreciate the comment, thanks!
@aspmdr So did you get it to work?
I'm having the same issue.
Thanks dude, you have the nicest disassembly video and you have a soothing voice 😊
Haha, you bet! Maybe I need one of those ASMR channels…. Thanks for the comment 👍
Extremely well-done video! Perfectly thorough and detailed! Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video! I've been dying to get all the crap out from behind the mesh ring for ages! Just finished a complete dismantle and rebuild and now it looks like new! Can't believe how much dust came out of it! I want to put a new bin on it now as the original looks like it's been sandblasted over time by the dust!
Right! Cleaning the cleaning devise is so satisfying!
@@FastFixTH-cam I've told my wife she's not allowed to use it now!
Great video tutorial! I feel empowered to open my own Dyson repair shop after watching this...chasing the suuuuck. I assume this applies to more models as well.
Fantastic name! Although you may get a perv or two visiting your shop.
This does apply to other models. This guide can be helpful for those wanting to chase the suck on their machines whatever the model.
this is so helpful! Thank you so much for putting together this video.
You are so welcome! 👍
Hi great video, as I got to remove the last five screws, I can only find 4. Are you sure there should be 5 screws? We can only find 4. but we are still looking.
They’re so tricky! They hide well. If you’re able to separate the unit, you’re good. If it’s stuck, there’s a 5th screw in there somewhere. Use compressed air to get all the dust out and you’ll find it.
4 screws indeed. honest mistake. great video!
4 screws.
Thank you sooooo much for this video! Super easy to follow through!
Glad it helped! Thanks for the comment 👍
Great video, very helpful. Thank you
You're welcome!
Thanks for the detail video!
You bet! Appreciate your comment 👍👍
This was excellent. Thanks so much.
You’re welcome!
Excellent video, I now know I need a new battery, are the cheap Chinese ones worth a try? Dyson sell theirs for a crazy amount of money
Yep, a new battery usually does the trick. I bought a cheap one off Amazon for 30ish dollars and it’s been great. 👍
Excellent, thank you so much.
You're very welcome!
I hope you can help me, I've gotten almost everything off, However the cyclone assembly won't come off. The bottom part releases when pressing the white plastic locking device with a pair of needle nose pliers, however the top half will not come off the handle part (red cyclone assembly & grey handle/battery mount) can you please advise? its like the top half of the cyclone assembly is glued to the grey mating part (handle/battery holder)
It is a VERY fiddly process, you may have to attempt it dozens of times or more like I did.
Make sure to remove the four of six accessible torx screws from the Cyclone assembly, it lets the whole thing wiggle a little bit more, which helps get it to come free.
You'll have to get the whole retainer ring pulled up, as if you're trying to pull it out of the machine through the access hole, and pressed in towards the removal tabs just perfectly right, or it'll seem like it's glued.
Two small flatheads held like chopsticks on the removal tabs with one hand, while holding the handle with my legs, and wiggling the cyclone free with my remaining hand was the ticket. Quite the procedure.
Many swear words were had but I was able to get it free without breaking or throwing it.. lol
It was chok full of fine dust inside there! Like buildup in someone's arteries, it was restricting the flow to the point that the whole machine was giving up.
Drying the freshly cleaned parts as I type this.. Hope this info helps 😊
@@glennkon I did finally disassembled the thing. It's a bit scary to use much force from fear of breaking something because obviously the possibility of throwing all that $$ is very real.
I found that the insides of the vacuum were relatively clean, but of course a thorough cleaning made a difference. In the end however, the culprit this time for the pulsating symptoms was the battery. I had ordered a replacement cheap battery which wasn't really the cause, it was obviously a clogged filter.
Anyway the Chinese replacement battery did die after a couple of years but I had saved the original battery and after charging it, it worked perfectly.
The cleaning did help a good bit, I think, but it might be a placebo effect.
OTOH, I did find a wonderful accessory (accessories) while looking for parts. I bought a kit of parts including a flex hose which really makes the stick vac much more useful now that it is working well.
Hello. Looks like others saved the day on this one. Good stuff all! Thanks for answering this one 👍👍👍.
P.S. I agree about the placebo effect. Cleaning does help, but often the cause is a clogged filter, some obstruction in the house or the one-way valve into the canister, or a bad battery.
Thank you!
You're welcome! 👍👍👍
you shoul complete this vid with how to get the motor filter in and out
Hello. Great idea! Future video 👍
There is a Vacuum Man who runs nothing but Facebook Group pages posts on cleaning Dyson Handheld Vac. Man this vid might get him out of business. Lol 😁
Ha! Well that’s great to hear! Appreciate the compliment and comment. Have a good one!
@@FastFixTH-cam I put it all back together. My problem did not get solved. I ordered new filters from Amazon. If that’s not it then May be I need new batteries 🔋 My unit is 5 years old. I don’t know how long the battery 🪫 lasts. But filter first and then if it’s not working I will get new batteries.
Dude!!!!!!! Thank you!
You are welcome!!! 😊👍
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
You bet!!!
If you press the rd lever down twice it removes the clear bucket
Good tip! Thanks for sharing 👍
I tapped the head unit as I was cleaning it and it popped off. Is that normal? I gave it a pretty hard hit
Hello. As long as you can pop it back on it shouldn’t be a problem. Feel free to follow up if you’ve got more questions 👍
Great job
Thank you!
Not a complete disassembly if you don't take the motor housing apart -.-
did everything but still cuts out
Hello. If it didn’t fix your issue, likely needs a new battery. I sourced mine off Amazon and it’s been going strong for two years.
