- Short video i made on fully cleaning and disassembling and reassembling you cordless dyson v6 vacuum cleaner. This series is a dc59 but will work on all v6 cordless vacuum cleaners. If you have any clogs or loss of suction disassemble and clean the entire unit. If you need a replacement filter to keep running properly i recommend the following filters in amazon link below. Also there is links below for a extended battery. But make sure the battery style is the same as the links.
And a charger cable is required for extended battery. The extended battery is a better option for running time but you cannot use the original docking station. There are good non dyson battery in link below that will fit docking station. If this video helped you out cleaning or repairing your dyson please consider the links below. Any purchases from the amazon links really help me out so i can start making more vacuum tutorials and reviews for everyone.

All this money spent on a vacuum cleaner and you have to be a mechanic to clean it! This has been the worst bit of money I have spent! Who can do all that to clean your vacuum, not me? Sorry but I am over Dyson!😈
It doesn’t take that much time to learn and do this. You get to see how vacuums are design and constructed. Dysons are the best designed and longest performing brands there are. You do get your money’s worth per use.
Tell me you're lazy without telling me you're lazy. 🙄
This is the best of TH-cam. A proper straightforward video to help fix a problem. Excellent video. Thanks.
You sir are a gentleman and a scholar. My poor dyson has been gasping for life for ages. Cleaned the filter, replaced the battery, but it still ran for just a few seconds at a time. Followed your instructions and cleaned the hell out of it. It lives!! Thanks, man!
Best Dyson cleaning video on the market, clear and easy to follow. Thanks, I appreciate the effort you made for us to help ourselves.
Great walkthrough, 14:28 be careful not to short those two metal pins with the flat head. I'd suggest wrapping the flat head with some electrical tape just in case.
I think I speak from everyone when I say thank you so much for this video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. I
I watched a few of these. And yours is the best of all ! I don't think I need to watch anymore you covered everything! Thank you
Your video was perfect. I watched numerous videos before yours (including Dyson instruction) and you were the one that actually helped me fix my vacuum. Thank you!!! I was over the moon excited. 😁 My husband is away for military work and I was so proud to call and tell him! Yay!
Shannon this was the nicest comment to wake up to. I bought out a closed dyson store during the pandemic. Shoot me a email I think I got enough part to get you upgraded from the v6 model. Last thing you wanna worry bout while he is gone is a frigging vacuum. The cup on the v6 is really small.
I really liked your video, Michael. It was clear and easy to follow and you didn't waste my time or bore me to death at any. point. Only thing I had trouble with was the gizmo with the five screws where you need the special tool. I walked down to the hardware store but they didn't have it. So I walked home, got the car and drove to the one on Pine Street (Burlington, VT). They didn't have it either. So I drove to Lowes where after a lot of trouble I got the damn thing. Got back and realized that the torque head did not just fit into the screw driver thing, but had to be used with some mysterious attachment. Fortunately, I had a pair of scissors that jammed into the orifice okay and I was able to proceed.
This is where I think you should modify your instructions. Tell people to take those little specialty screws out and put them somewhere safe. Because, at this point I took all my parts over to the sink to wash. ( I really like things to be clean!) There was an ominous clicking and skittering sound as the little specialty screws I had forgot about sped down the drain! Fortunately, had two left and damn that will have to do!
The "Jesus clip" or whatever you called it completely baffled me, so I stopped there. Everything went back together okay but I was so tired I couldn't remember which was the new battery. Oh well! I'm sure this will become clear before long. I took a shower and put a band-aid on my cut finger.
The vacuum cleaner works great! Or it did until the battery went dead. I think that it was the new battery and it just needed charging.
Brilliant video, thanks. I have been servicing vacuums for 10 years and didn't know this !!
Awesome job explaining how to disassemble and clean my Dyson. Keep up the great job and thank you!
Brilliant. I followed your instructions, putting on pause whilst I completed each step. My Dyson had lost most of its suction, now it's like new! Thanks for posting this film, its saved me a load of money and I'm chuffed to bits that I managed to do this without ant maintenance experience.
Glad it helped you out.
Thank you! Mine is now apart and drying on the counter for the next 2 days. Didn't even need to bug my husband to do this. Hardest part was taking the little purple thing off with the straight blade. New battery is ready to put in and hopefully no more dog smell.
Thanks for posting this. After about 18 months of use, the vacuum would expel a full charge in about 30 seconds. I left it alone for two years before deciding to buy a battery today. Then I thought, why don't I see if it could be another issue, and low and behold I found you. My SV03 was so caked with dirt and debris blocking about everything that sucks or blows... Normal maintenance had not done the trick so I'm now waiting for everything to dry so I can prove my theory, but am confident this will solve the problem. Thanks again!!!
Thank you for telling me it was your dishwasher 😂🤦🏻♀️. I’ve been going all over my house trying to find it. Getting frustrated at my 3 kids because no one could tell me what they were doing that was beeping 😂😂😂
I needed to refresh how to put mine back together after I pulled it apart and washed it all out I left it for four days to dry out properly and forgot how to reassemble some of it lol all good works like a dream thanks champ great video.
I didn't realize how dirty my dyson was. Now just waiting for my new battery to arrive. Got a very clean machine. Smells so much better. Thank you for explaining how to take it apart and put it back together.
Hi! We are two women from Finland who got courage to clean our Dyson V6 thank's to your video! We did it! And it's even working! We saved money and got joy out of doing it. Thank you!
Very helpful, finally after cleaning inside and out, its working!
At 11 minutes I was finally able to stop searching my kitchen in an effort to identify the beeping noise!
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you so much for this video!! I've been getting really bad allergic reactions whenever I used the vacuum, despite having cleaned out the bin (and washed), and the pre-filter being almost spotless.
It's much, much better now that all of the inside is cleaned out. You've really saved me from so much frustration - the dislikes are so undeserved. Have a great day ahead!
After owning this (or at least a similar one) for the past two years, I fumbled the cleaning of the cup last week at the assembly all came apart… and it’s taken until now to see how it clicks back together. I know this is an older video, but I really needed it today and I’m very grateful. Thanks again, from Australia 🇦🇺 🐨
Just today installed a new battery. Not knowing any better called Dyson. The new battery was $94.00 mailed straight from Honduras. Wish I had known about getting from Amazon. Thank you for the very clear video. I would nit hesitate to clean my vacuum.
To be fair though, the reason why most people don't clean theirs like that is because it's kinda difficult for the average person. There are people who literally can't change alight bulb. And the user manual doesn't provide comprehensive cleaning instructions either.
Thank you very much for this video! I followed along and I was able to clean mine properly.
Thank you for showing this. If you do this regularly, there is less stress on the motor and batteries. Which will make you vacuum perform longer and stronger. I’ve had my V6 for 5 years and it still performs like new. I’ve only had to replace filters and only once for the battery.
thanks michael, your instructions are vey clear and made it a simple peoject. Appreciate your taking the time to make and post this video. (and may I add that my dyson was filthy inside)
Thank you, this did wonders for me! I bought a 2nd hand one and it smelled badly of wet dog. I followed along with your video and I have a brand new vacuum!
I'm glad that the dyson isnt just a simple throwaway garbage vacuum. Swear, i never could disassemble other vacuums enough to clean them fully, and I never dreamed of being able to convert my vacuum into a hepa filter.
Thanks for the video. Wouldn't have been able to clean up a fiberglass mattress shedding all over my room without it.
Thank you for making this well. This is been by far the most in-depth and best video out there on how to clean the vacuum.
Ahh thank you so much. I'm a retired female who managed to follow your video and now have a like new Dyson, that doesn't smell and performs like new.
Your video is SO VERY HELPFUL! Took it apart, the entire system. Was able to pick up torque head at Lowes for the right tool! Thank you as this will help my vacuum to last a long time!
Extremely helpful video - ours had started to smell and following your instructions I was able to completely disassemble and clean out all the dirt. Thankyou!
Greetings from South Africa. Great video, extremely helpful and did it myself. Shock and horrors and once separated my Dyson was really mucky! Just a note: the removable blue pre filter can be thoroughly cleaned by unclipping it around the neck of the filter. The spine slides out and one will note that dust and hairs does escape through the filter and gathers around the spine. Rinse and click back together. Thank you.
Extremely helpful! moreso than the other videos on youtube. Some additional tips I found while taking it apart. If you found this helpful, upvote the comment so others will see it or perhaps he can update the video notes/info with this.
If you don't have a Etorx T8. (not very common):
I have a few different sets of tools and have multiple T10 and higher but not a T8. You can get away with using a precision screwdriver about 2.4mm (it might be 1.8mm). You might already have it lying around for watch, glasses, computer repair. However if you're going to go buy a tool specifically for this get the T8, the precision screwdriver can be a pain to turn since there's not a lot of grip.
Removing the backplate to the prefilter at 15:22 in the video: (easier way without damaging it)
Rather than removing it the way he did in the video, at the base of the handle in the rear towards the middle you'll notice a divot that you can insert a flat head screwdriver. Insert there and pop it off from the base, then work your way up and pull the back plate off. You can place a napkin or something over the divot, then put your screwdriver in order to prevent scratching as well. If you do it the way he does it, there's a good chance you'll scratch up the side of it.
Brilliant! Thank you.
Excellent video, everything came apart and more importantly went back together just as you showed. Thanks a lot!
Thank you
Thank you for the complete cleaning video! Reassembly was very helpful also. As was mentioned in other comments, I was checking my phone, alarm, refrigerator, etc., for the beep. 😁
😂😂😂
Absolutely Perfect tutorial. Thank you sooo much. cleaned our v6 and now no more dog smell. You're the best.
Thank you. This was so helpful, and very well done. My vacuum doesn’t smell like a dirty wet dog anymore lol. I went a step further and cleaned the non electronic parts with a non toxic cleaner as well to ensure the dirt came off of it as well. You’ll be amazed to see how dirty these things get.
The flapper valve suggestion was great. I never heard that before and was getting pretty frustrated. But that worked!! Thanks.
My Neigbor literally threw hers out with the whole “it works sign” I imagine she dumped it for poor suctio or that it smells like wet dog when running and just needed a thorough cleaning. Would never have figured out how to disassemble the whole thing or knowing it was a T6 for the screws. Thank you! Works awesome!
18:04 T8 :)
Good score Jason lol.

Super-excellent video. I am a do it yourself kind of guy, and the Dyson unit had me flummoxed. One thing about these Dysons...if there is any blockage in the filters or flow-thru, the unit starts to hesitate on/off: a little over-sensitive. I really appreciate the time and detail of your video.
Great howto - I was wary about using a flat driver to open the inner section - but watching you do it was very helpful - now completed a strip & clean of my V6 - many thanks from The Wirral , UK
I can't thank you enough for this video. I have been trying to figure out how to get the top part of the motorhead off so I could clean it. Your video was great, should be everything. Thank you so much my vacuum cleaner works like it did when new.
Really useful video. I've just ordered a new battery for my V6, so I now know how to clean it thoroughly. Thanks so much!
After 4 years of use... I finally tore this thing down for a full clean. And omg I'm glad I did... some of the venturi nozzle were blocked on mine. It was disgusting inside. Now it runs like new and saves me doing 3 to 4 passes on the carpet. One pass and it's clean. Amazing again!
Thankyou for taking the time to make this video. Very much appreciated.

Hands down, best video to help clean my Dyson. Thank you! Great knowledge and confidence in the way you explain the process.
Thank you for this, my v6 was messing up because the flap got jammed, so it got its first cleaning in 5ish years!
Thank you so much, just spent a few satisfying hours following this and now have a thoroughly clean hoover . Would never have attempted this without your tutorial. 👍
thanks brenda comments like this have moved me to making more vaccum cleaning videos in the future. I really appreciate the nice comment.
TorrentPerformance and as a wee bonus, the bottom part that picks up the dirt had stopped working, my first thought was oh well, let’s buy a replacement, but found a big clug of dirt jammed in it, now it working a dream, so you saved me some cash as well. 👍
I came here to find out how to service our Dyson. This was the ducks nuts. Same as everyone else, I paused when I needed to and played it when I got past that point. Fortunately I had the tools required to complete the task so that wasn't an issue. I actually really liked the amount of detail we stripped it down to. I got it looking like brand new.
One issue I have though is: next time you do something like this could you please turn off your dish washer. Ya had me looking around like an idiot trying to find what it was that I had beeping at me.
Thanks heaps mate. Keep up the great vids.
"Ducks nuts", that's a nbew one on me!:-)
Lol, I too paused the video trying to hear, in my house,
Where that beep was coming from. Finally, you said it was your dishwasher!! Lol
@@Bikerdiverdave It may be an Aussie thing Dave. Not sure where you're from buddy. Or it may be generational. I grew up hearing crap like that from my dad and all his mates. :)
Thank you so much for this video. I've now got a 'brand new' Dyson V6 again. Brilliant
Here I am three years later referencing this video again! I sure don't recall using a Torx head before to remove the one part, surely I did but I couldn't find it so went out and bought a little kit. It is amazing how dirty these things get inside. Thanks once again!
Luann make sure you try to keep the v6 series up and running. Im using the newer dyson v10,v11,v15 series at my building and i cant keep the head unit from breaking and having the wheel damaged in 6months. Major design flaw with the newer models. The v7 or v8 would be the best option if you ever upgrade the only downfall is the canister size. The v7 v8 series in my personal opinion is the best option and not the new v8 with electronic display.
@@TorrentPerformance Thanks for the head's up!
@@TorrentPerformance It is amazing how dirty these things can get, just had to reference your video again. Glad that I made a note in my prior comment about having bought that little Torx head set (T8). You make it so easy to follow your instructions. Thanks again.
Wow this is a lot of work to clean a cleaning machine! This will probably be my last Dyson vacuum purchase.
so useful! all the other videos I watched said to stop way before you did, and my vacuum continued to stink! now it works and smells like new 🙏 so satisfying. thank you!
On the brush head, you correctly unlocked the brush by turning the big screw but you also unlocked (partially) the button strip and never removed it. There is a reason why that strip is removable, there is a lot of dirt and dust collected underneath.
Thank you for the detailed instructions. I was thinking of asking a friend of mine to know how to do that. Your video is detailed and helps a lot. Keep uploading more videos.
Great instructions, thanks so much. I hadn't done a deep clean on the vacuum in 3 years. It was pretty gore-y but it looks and works great now!
I was having issues with the max light blinking. Using your video, I clean the unit and it is running perfectly! Thanks !
Thank you a great video very well explained and detailed. I used a couple of large skewers to open up the Jesus clip.. was quite easy. Also the top part can be taken apart with 6 more screws and can clean inside of dust... it’s little more complicated but now I have a very clean and vacuum that works like new!
Thanks. My battery died so I decided to take it apart and clean it to while waiting on a new one.
I know this is an old video but just stumbled across this and just wanted to say thanks! It was a great vid on how to clean this unit. My wife purchased this V6 refurbed from Dyson three years ago and its been a great unit. The battery recently died and got a replacement. Wanted to clean it up before I put the new battery in. THIS was a real cleaning!! Its all laid out drying. Can't want to reassemble and try it out. Thanks again!
my battery on my v6 only lasts 10 minutes. should i get a new battery? the vacuum is really clean. i hardly use the vacuum, but the battery sucks.
The best Dyson cleaning video on the market! Thank you!
Thank you for this video! I had no idea how to clean the purple filter on my dyson. I could see dirt in it but didn't know how to get it off to clean it! Your video was awesome!
Well explained video. Liked they way it showed the problem with the white clip and it taking a few attempts which is what happens in reality.
Thanks Robert more Dyson vids to come
Thank you so much. Our Dyson was getting really useless and I was thinking if binning it but, I followed your so helpful guide and Wow . It now works a charm. Thank you.
Thank you! This has been extremely helpful. I honestly was about to buy a new filter because I thought it was not reusable
Excellent video! Very easy to follow! Our dyson held a ton of dirt! We are very thankful!!!
Thank you for the detailed instructions! I'm taking the whole thing apart today. I've never used the Etork screwdriver for the main body yet. I'm sure after a few years that mine is cringeworthy. Luckily, my husband has the Etork .
This has been very helpful, thank you
Torx bit
Spotted another video before I tried to prise the top of the filter. The pipe from the bin had a blockage, not a big one but there was enough fluff to create a blockage. I then discovered that the flap at the back was jammed. Managed to push hard on the flap with a pen and dislodge it. No longer pulsating so thanks for your video which pointed me in the right direction.
Thank you!!!! Could NOT figure out why the vacuum wasn't working. This has been extremely helpful.
This video is bloody awesome. Dyson charged me $110 for a new battery, and the man was grumpy. Thankyou so much for doing this great video, my Dyson was filthy, and now should work like new. Once again a BIG THANKYOU. Now for the big Dyson...........
$30 bucks from Amazon.. and anyone can replace the battery in 10 minutes...
Wonderful video. Straight to the point, clear directions, great camera work. Thanks!
This video was a lifesaver, really. It was not easy peazy but we did it, thanks to you. Had to go buy a T8 but did manage to find one. Thank you so much.
Just went to local hardware.He had a kit that had T4-7. I bought it but didn't remember it was T8. Will need to return it. Didn't open it. He said it didn't contain T8. Who has a T8.?
Link in description for tool kit threw amazon link
Been looking to buy a new vacuum because ours was on it's last legs. Followed your video and it's like brand new. Thank you so much!
Great video 👍 very detailed description and easy to follow. First time since years that our Dyson is now clean like almost new. Thanks
Wow- amazing. Thank you so much. My wife was complaining about less sucking power and wanted me to buy another. With your step by step instructions I was able to find a buttload of dirt, no wonder it smelled bad when we used it. I did everything you said and they both run like new. Can’t thank you enough !!👍😊🍺
Oh, and since you advised the filter close to motor was output filter And maybe some type of oil. I added some essential oil to it. Eucalyptus and now when we are cleaning house we are air freshening too 😊👍🤷🏼♂️
Thanks for showing us this, very helpful trying to clean my vacuum. Appreciate it!
Thank you for this video!! I never realized how much these things can be taken apart and cleaned. Mine started having a funky smell when I ran it but by cleaning those filters by the motherboard, it’s gone away
Thank you so much!, I’ve successfully pull my Dyson apart given her a good clean and put it all back together!! Thank you, awesome instructor video!!!!
Genius. You have helped me no end. Thank you xxx
If addled and messed putting the cup back on. Went back to your video and hey presto tilt and clip. DONE X
Wonderfully detailed and effective video. I was able to fully understand the vaccumm and how to clean it.
great video. much more information than other dyson vac cleaning videos. very easy to do.
dropping by to say thanks. i followed you’re very informative video and cleaned out the weird smell coming out the vacuum.
Thanks. Very skillful on your part, enjoyed the show.
Just wanted to say, this is the best how to, for the v6 dyson. I used a older instruction video and I had to stop and restart because it was hard to see. I have bookmarked this for the future!.
Great vid. I have replaced the battery and the cup ($22). So you really extend the life of this unit. Thanks TP and Dyson.
Thank you. Easy to follow & detailed w/ what tools to use. Therefore making it easy to go back & refollow portions. Also appreciate the reassembly portion.
Thanks glad I could help you out. Don't wanna throw away a vacuum like this because it doesn't work well.
Absolutely brilliant. Thanks so much. Super helpful step by step.
OMG! Thank you ever so much for your video. I was a bit nervous taking it apart but I had nothing to lose since my Dyson wasn't holding power. You have saved me $$$!!! I view ed several videos and your video was the most thorough Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Unfortunately I have run into some major issues for home repair. If you subscribe I will be launching a new segment to my TH-cam channel called vacuum review when my house gets in order.
Thank you for making this video. It helped extraordinarily.
Great video brother it helped me out a ton. My Dyson was bought new. But it says store display. So I got it dirt cheap. And I love this vacume.
Really good video! Thank you for making it. You’re a great teacher.
This video helped me the most! And one more thing I found is that the the donut part can still be further taken apart by unscrew two screw from the front black nozzle. Thank you again.
Another great how-to. Easy to follow, good camera work good sound and went into depth I didn't find in other videos. My formerly doggy smelling Max is now clean and odor free - for a while anyway. Thanks!
Love it. Thanks for the great comment just made my day.
Thank you. We have got a slightly upgraded model (different rear filter) but this didn’t cause any issues. Working well again.
Thank you so much! Just did this and was pretty proud of myself - you made it so easy.
thank you SO much! i was given a dyson v6 that the previous owner had never cleaned and it reeeeked, this video was so helpful it runs perfectly + without any smell now. thank you thank you thank you
Used this video a couple times now. THANKS!
Thanks mate, I was stuck for a moment when doing a strip down for full clean and this video was my cheat sheet.
Thank you very much for this - I'd been getting mine wet, thinking I was cleaning it - only for it to get more smelly. And now I see while I was removing *some* of the dirt, I was also leaving some behind, and making it wet - hence the worse smells! Mine is now off air-drying before being put back together. Time to buy a new battery too I think
I put a little "clove" essential oil on my filter. Makes the whole room smell good when you vaccum.
VERY SMART INDEED!! 👍🏾 Thanks for the tip.
Which filter did you add the essential oil to? The cone shaped purple one or the gray filters in the exhaust?
