No suction coming from extension tube - Vacuums

It's possible the sound your hearing is the suction release valve opening up to release the suction if there is a clog or restriction somewhere. If that's not it inspect the changeover valve closely as you pull the handle back into vacuuming mode and back upright. If there is a bad spot on the hose it can prevent it can prevent the changeover valve from seating properly.

The extension tube is probably blocked. Check for suction with all the tubes off - if there is suction now then the tubes are blocked - be carefull not to damage them if you poke things in the unblock them.

Hello There! I had the same exact problem. Seems something was wrong or stuck in the tubes.
Finally, when I kept trying to clean it out, the tube ripped off and I found a clog of dust in it. So, try getting replacement tubes & it'll work for sure!
I wish I helped you! Let me know if you need anymore help! Don't forget to rate! :)

Hello :

1: A vacuum pulls air through the bag, then through the tube attachment and then through the base (with the spinning agitator brush).

2:Check for signs of suction. Remove the tube attachment from its cradle and, after turning on the vacuum, put your hand to the end of the tube. Is there any suction at all? If there is a little bit of suction then you may have a clogged air tube.

3:Check the vacuum bag. It may be very full. If it is then remove the bag and replace it with a new bag. Check the suction power again. Has the suction improved?

4:Check the tube attachment. Completely remove it from the vacuum. You usually have to twist and pull the tube attachment out of place at the point where it connects to the back of the vacuum. Check the suction power again. This time you place your hand on the vacuum right where the tube used to come out of the back of the vacuum. Has the suction improved?

5:If the suction power has improved then you probably have a clogged tube. Dog hair, people hair, leaves and more can get lodged in the tube slowly over time and then suddenly block the tube completely.

6:Clean the tube by first trying to shake the debris out of the tube. If this does not work then go outside and run a hose through the tube. Use a pressure nozzle if you have one. Run the hose through one end of the tube. Then run it through the other end. Repeat until the debris is disloged. Dry the tube and then reattach to the vacuum.

7:Has suction power improved or returned to normal power? If yes then you can stop reading now. If not then read on.

8:Check the air hose in the base of the vacuum. This hose is usually pretty short and you can see if there is any blockage. If you see blockage then try to remove it. You may need to reach into the hose with a tool (like a screw driver or something long).

9:Has suction power improved or returned to normal power? If yes then you can stop reading now. If not then read on.

10:If you made it to this step then you may have a problem with the motor on your vacuum. If this is the case then you will need to take the vacuum in to a repair shop.

Things you will need :
1 Philips screw driver
1 flat head screw driver

Warning :


# Always unplug electrical devices before you work on them.

# Never work on electrical devices around water or when you are wet.

I hope this will help .

Hi its Darran at Dyson.

Sounds like you have a blockage in the extension tube or floor tool. With the extension tube removed from the wand and floor tool hold it up to the light. you should be able to see if it is blocked.

Your dirt path is clogged, probably not far from the brush area. This is the reason you noticed the hi-pitch sound coming from the motor.

You may have to remove the hose to clear it.

Is the air blowing out of the pick-up tube or out of the exhaust tube on the unit? I am assuming the pick-up tube. The installer has hooked your system up to the exhaust tube on the unit. Hook up to the intake on the unit instead.

#1 i assume u checked the bag and filter if so equipped?
#2 verify the hose is not plugged
#3 verify hard plumbing not plugged by taking something metal (quarter) and crossing the 2 little metal nubs at inlet (don't worry it is low voltage u wll not get shocked) it should ****
#4 if hard line plugged you may need a second vacuum to reverse flow
are all outlets not creating suction f so detach vacuum from piping and verify that vacuum is not the problem

The suction hole will never have wind coming out of it, it is for suction. To switch from floor to hose, turn the control knob labeled floor / hose.
