Hi Robert, it's Jack at Dyson.

If your DC25's ball seems to be jammed and won't rotate freely, it's likely that the post-motor filter housed inside the ball is out of place, and is catching on the ball shell. This is easy to resolve - the video below shows how to remove and replace both filters:


I'm confident this will resolve the issue - replacing the post-motor filter by pushing it into place until you hear a click from the red catch should ensure it remains in position.

If after trying this you notice that the post-motor filter repeatedly comes out of position in use, this is something we should be able to help with - you'd just need to give the Dyson Customer Helpline a call on 0800 298 0298 (UK), 1-866-693-9766 (US), 1-877-397-6622 (CA) or 1800 239 766 (AU)

SOURCE: it.s anew vacuum cleaner Dyson DC24-ball one,

Hi there, its Darran at Dyson.

It sounds as though you need to re-set the brush bar. It can stop rotating if it becomes obstructed. You need to simply locate the red re-set switch on the side of the cleaner head and push this button right in as far as you can. When you switch the machine back on and lower it into the vacuuming position, it should start to rotate.

I hope that this information is useful to you, if you need any further assistance, please contact our Helpline on 0800 298 0298, between the hours of 7am - 10pm, 7 days a week.

Kind regards
Darran

SOURCE: Dyson DC 25 Ball - no power to motor

Same problem here. We noticed a loss of suction for about 5 minutes and the suction stopped. Beater bar still rotates but ZERO suction.

SOURCE: Dyson DC 25 Dyson Ball animal. The bottom brush

Two things you can do. 1- Remove the brush as if you were going to change the drive belt for it. Clean the brush as best you can and spray some WD40 on the hard rubber/plastic pieces at both ends of the brush. Rotate the pieces to work the WD40 into the space between the pieces and the brush axle. 2- If you have one available, as long as the brush is off, change the belt.
This should get your unit back in operation. If you find this solution helpful, I would appreciate a Thumbs Up from you. Thank you. Paul

    Hi there,

    I'm sorry to hear you're having difficulties with your DC24. If the Ball will not roll, it may be because the filter cover or HEPA filter are out of position. Please see the video below for guidance on how to check both of these are correctly fitted in place.

    If the cleaner doesn't seem to be picking up as well as usual, I'd recommend running through these troubleshooting steps to check everything is correct with the machine:

    How do I re-install the beater bar on Dyson Vacuum

    Hi, this is Jim with Crucial Vacuum,

    I'm not sure what exact model Dyson you have, but we have a few videos on Youtube dedicated to replacing Dyson Roller Brushes. Here is one for a Dyson DC-25 and DC14.

    DC-25
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8W8mah-y51Y

    DC14
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QpHz26KR5o

    It is more than likely that the screw is simply jammed, or is not fully screwing in. More often than not this is due to the screw not lining up properly once being placed back in. Try wiggling it back in and lining it up just right.

    You can purchase replacement brush rolls for your Dyson vacuum direct from Crucial Vacuum with free shipping and an exclusive 10% coupon for Fixya.com readers, use code: FIXYA10

    Why is my DC24 not working

    You may have an object caught between the belt and brush roll.
    Remove brush roll cover and see if that is the case.

    Regards,

    Dyson dc41 brushroll is not getting voltage at connector

    It could be one of the two switches that control the power to the brush roll. Take it to a Dyson repair facility.

    The ball is not rolling freely on the dyson dc 25 upright it sticks and makes a noise as the vacuum is pushed

    Inspect closely while spinning the ball looking for a rubbing or restriction. Look for a crack or debris that could be causing it. Remove the ball shell to inspect it looking for cracks, check the bearing and the area the ball shell connects to the vacuum to try to find the cause.

    The brush bar wont spin on my dyson dc 25... i

    Hi its Darran at Dyson.

    Simply switch the machine off and stand it upright. Press the brush bar on/off switch once and then turn the machine back on.

    When you release the machine into the vacuuming position, the brush bar should start to turn again.

    If you still having problems, please contact our Helpline on 0800 298 0298 (UK) or 1866MYDYSON (US).
