Well done, Joshua! Helped our housekeeper refurbished her Dyson DC14 & keep her expenses low. Great video. Excellent step by step. Keep em coming!
Glad it helped!
The best video on transmission belt replacement -thank you!
Glad it helped!
Followed your instructions for changing the clutch.....everything was easy except for popping off the orange cap (carpet/hard floor cap) wonderful instructions! Thank you so much! You made it easy for this old lady to understand! Lol
Glad we were able to help!
Excellent video! Swapped out the old clutch for a new one and now my vacuum is working just like new!! Thank you!!!
Great to hear!
Ax to grind with Dyson for some reason... They are good vacuums. I've had the same one for almost 20 years. They last if you maintain them. I've even gotten them out of the trash, completely stripped them down and reassembled them. They are good as new.
Thank you for your comments random guy on the internet. After careful consideration I have realized that your singular experience with a Dyson vacuum far outweighs my experience inside tens of thousands of vacuum cleaners. After hearing your story I have changed my mind and now love Dyson vacuums. I am going to suggest to our team that we no longer sell Riccar or Sebo vacuums and instead dumpster dive for the far superior Dyson vacuums. They will save so much money I am bound to get a raise!
You have clearly spent too much time inhaling vacuum dust.
That is a 100% accurate observation.
Wow imagine getting sassed by a zesty vacuum repair guy. You’re not impressing anyone by being an asshole vacuum repair boy.
Thanks for sharing this information! I was able to install the new clutch!
Great to hear!
Thank you for this video. I am planning on calling you all up order a clutch and belt soon.
We look forward to hearing from you!
Thanks so much. This saved me buying a new vacuum.
Glad we could help!
Great video! Fixed our Dyson DC07. Thanks
Glad it helped!
really easy video to follow and loved the expert tips in how to remover certain parts. However I also have two screws leftover (like in the video) and a magnetic catch, that you took out but I did not hear you say to put back in). They are definitely from this Dyson as I only have one , so I'm going to have to go back for the magnetic catch and find another video to find where the two screws we both have are from.l ol
Great video fix my vacuum. Thank you
Glad it helped!
Excellent video! Thank you
Glad it helped!
Great video. Helped me fix out vaccum. Thanks!
Glad it helped!
Thanks much for the great video. Things went mostly okay for me. I managed to bust the clutch shrowd. There are two screws on the back side. One goes into the shrowd and the other goes into something else. I got the wrong one. Also, you should wear protective eye gear! When I was using my big screw driver to stretch that belt, it jumped on me and I stuck myself in the face. 🥲
Very helpful. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Worked great.
Great to hear!
I'll be replacing my clutch that just arrived yesterday...you said a "real" vacuum would eat your hand alive. What do you consider a "real" vacuum? What models/brands would you recommend for anyone in the market for a new vacuum?
Enjoyed your content. Quite helpful. So, like the digs at Dyson build. So what vaccuum do you recommend other than Dyson?
Do you have a video on how to rebuild the clutch? I would love to learn how to do that. ❤ Thank you for the info on my Dysons crappy clutch 😂lol 🤙👍
great tutorial. thank you. but you mentioned a couple of times that there are better vacuums out there. what is your recommendation for a great dane household? hardwood floors in main areas, carpet in the bedrooms. Thanks again for a great how to video
Glad we could help! We like Riccar and Sebo!
I just got new roller with both belts took it apart, and was like wth you can't just install the belts so I spent 3 hrs disassembling the clutch and fighting it trying to figure out where the 50pcs that flew everywhere went! Lol works great now tho, still gonna order a clutch before I can't find one
What filter ir is a filter needed on the side dc14 animal vac labeled air flow duct?
just got a new clutch for myn and installed it but i noticed when its upright the brush roll struggles to spin but once its on the carpet its fine is that normal
Turns out the issue with ours was that the belt to the motor dry-rotted and broke. Nothing wrong with the old clutch, but had to replace it since its the only way to get the belt.
Very nice and to the point. One suggestion, spend the $7.00 and get the belt replacement tool. It makes putting that belt on beyond easy and safe.
Thank you very much for this very helpful video! The clutch failed on our 2005 DC-14 and this information was just what I needed to wrestle a new clutch into it. Hopefully we'll get a few more years out of it. Dyson, of course, has completely washed their hands of this model; no parts support, no repair support, no tech support beyond a few troubleshooting script cut-n-pasters in some 3rd world call center.
Glad it helped!
@@vacuumsrus I fell for the advertising as well after using my sister Dyson in 2004 🙃.
Surprisingly, the clutch is still fine but the motor to clutch belt finally failed after 18 years.
Now I can see exactly what to do I'll be getting some belts instead of a new vacuum.
Thank you sir.
Hellllp! Thanks for the great video but my t15 closest to the front won't come out. I loosen it and it just keeps spinning with about 40% resistance but never comes looser. I removed the big knob on the side to see if it would help. It didn't. 😢
What's holding it in? Loose nut? Am i hosed? I've watched several videos and I am the only one dealing with this problem!
It is very common for the mount that the front screw attaches to to snap off entirely. The mounting point is part of the brush roll housing. In this case you can normally pull the clutch cover out with some force. It's not ideal to reassemble it with only 2 of 3 screws attached but it will "work" most of the time. Again, follow these suggestions at your own risk. It is possible that removing the clutch cover with force could shatter the brush housing.
Amazon claims to be selling brand new clutches for the DC-14 for $39.99. I wonder if they’re authentic Dyson parts or aftermarket.
What brand is a good vacuum? have a old Hoover upright commercial with plastic dust cup the brushes are even replaceable it still works but needs a new cord. Great video!
It really depends on your home and lifestyle. Sebo and Riccar are both great options. You may want to check out our comparison videos and vacuum webpage at www.vacuumsrus.com/product-category/cleaning/vacuumcleaners/ to get an idea of what types of vacuum are out there.
If price is no object then Miele is really the way to go. They are good quality but they are overpriced.
Can you please advise me what torx screwdriver fits the three screws on cylinder cover so I can clean wash out the vortex.i have a T15 screwdriver but it doesn't fit due antitampering screws
What model do you have? I'm not sure about the DC14, but the DC07 only uses T15 screws. There are 3 T15 screws way down in the cyclone of the DC07 which are easily accessible with a long T15. However, in addition to being screwed together, the two pieces (the upper, brightly colored cone, and the lower silver part) are permanently bonded/welded and do not actually come apart, so don't waste your time removing the screws. I would just check to make sure the screws are tight if you have a long T15. The key to successfully washing out a DC07 cyclone is to make sure it's absolutely 100% dry before vacuuming. I blow it out thoroughly with compressed air, then let it sit near an air vent for a week - or as long as I can. Then I blow it out again to make sure it's dry! In 21 years, I've washed out my cyclone 3 times. A cheap and simple way to keep your Dyson performing as new! Good luck!
@KittyNoNo thankyou for the great advice Happy New Year
Thanks as you say do it at your own risk. But If i found no spare parts because it’s an old Dyson and no more new ones because they had been phaseout then one will try. I did it with an old canister Dyson DC39c. At first I gave up because motor burn and smell burn you know so i got a Miele C3. But i didn’t throw away that one and later I found a Panasonic motor not expensive (35USD) that fit there. Also I made a cover with HEPA filter textile (it’s not suitable for Aquarium it’s not fiber glass) to replace the old exhaust paper filter that i accidentally broke while taking out the burned motor. Later I found that those filters were again available so may be some day I will buy one of those. Because as you say this Dyson different than the Sanitaire or Electrolux there are no third party nor OEM manufacturers. Some day I think if the cyclone or other part got broken it will go to the trash but now it works I use regular to clean pets bed and the car so because it’s bagless it collects pet hair and the car dirt without buying bags. Still have to wash pre motor filter and after one year changed again the post motor textile because i still have enough to anyway it works not the same but it works.
What happens if your brush is NOT spinning? Would that also be because the clutch has gone bad.
Yep, that's what is wrong with mine. The brush "wants" to spin, but the clutch is so shelled out it doesn't spin more than maybe once or twice before stopping. Any resistance and it is stopped.
Changed my clutch. Everything is back together. Getting suction. Roller is spinning. Picking up like normal. Canister is filling up but i am getting the clicking sound when pushing forward only. I did not replace the hose spring. Could this be the problem? Any ideas that can help this issue?
There are a lot of things that can cause that. Due to the age of the machines there are just a lot of older plastic parts rubbing in ways they shouldn't be. I don't think not changing the hose would cause it persay but since the hose does control the elevation of levelness of the head it's entirely possible the head is bent at a bad angle and causing wheels to click.
@@vacuumsrus Okay. Thank you. 😀
What do you recommend for a good vacuum?
Hi there, this video might help! th-cam.com/video/JWXJw0GWTNo/w-d-xo.html
Where can I take it to get it fixed
You can try some local vacuum shops near you!
Would be considered a torque limiter clutch
It was going so well! I snapped the ear off (4:36) when trying to knock off the orange knob (6:49). Well, I’m going vacuum shopping. 🥳 Thanks for the video ❤
You really do need to be extra careful with the plastic, cuz it gets extremely brittle, and all it takes is the slightest amount of pressure in the wrong spot.
Do you think the newer dyson vacuums are as sh*tty as this one? And are the vacuums that are better, are they all also more expensive? Or are any cheaper? Thanks
I appreciate the steps shown here, but it sure seems like the tech likes to use a big flathead screwdriver (and occasionally a hammer) on some somewhat delicate parts. Not sure I would want this guy monkeying around with my vacuum. It seems like there are better tools and techniques to treat your vacuum properly.
So its basically a POS SO DONT FIX IT GET A NEW ONE
It is decent vacuum. For $50 or $60 bucks. Not that difficult to replace the clutch.
