Hi Kevin,

Thank you for your inquiry. I am sorry to hear about this issue with your DC25 brush bar. Assuming you have already tried cleaning the brush of any obstructions, following the instructions below may resolve the issue:

1) Plug your machine into the power outlet
2) Locate the grey brush bar button next to your power button
3) With the machine turned off, press and hold the brush button down for 10 seconds
4) Release the grey brush button, step on the foot pedal to recline the machine
5) Press the power button to power on the machine
6) Check to see if the brush rotates

If you have any additional questions or require further assistance, please contact our US Dyson Helpline toll-free at 1-(866) 693-9766 or our UK support colleagues at 0800 298 0298. Thank you very much for your time.

    SOURCE: dc25 animal. front brush not working

    Hi there,

    Your DC25 is equipped with a sensor which shuts off the brushbar if something jams it. Once you've checked the cleaner head is free of obstructions and removed any threads or hair from around the brushbar, you should be able to reset the machine. For assistance in doing this, please follow the steps shown in the video below.

    Please note, it will not be necessary to remove the soleplate as suggested by Spizlarkie. The automatic shut-off feature protects the belt from breaking, and disassembling the cleaner head to this extent will void the machine's 5-year guarantee.

    I hope this helps- if you'd like any further assistance or advice, please call our customer Helpline on 0800 298 0298 (UK), or 1-866-693-9766 (US). You can also find information on using and maintaining your machine by visiting www.dyson.com and clicking 'Support'.

    SOURCE: beater brush won't spin but belt is intact and ok.

    For your beater brush to spin, you have to meet two conditions:
    1) the vacuum cleaner has to be reclined (put your foot on the front and pull back on the handle).
    2) The clutch actuator (the dial where you switch between BEAR FLOORS and CARPETS needs to be set to CARPETS).

    If the brushbar/beater bar still doesn't spin after that, call the Dyson helpline, they will assist you. If you are saying that the brushbar isn't spinning because it is not picking up any dirt, you may have a loose internal hose, a blockage in the machine or the bristles on the brushbar are worn. Call the Dyson helpline for assistance.

    Hi its Darran at Dyson.

    You may find it useful to remove the soleplate from the base of the machine and make sure that the brush bar is fitted correctly.

    Once this is done, make sure there are no hairs or threads wrapped around the brush barm, particularly
    at the ends.

    With the soleplate removed you can also ensure that the brush bar and housing are free of blockages.

    Once checked, re-fit the soleplate and test the machine.

    I hope that this information is useful to you. If you need any further help or advice, contact one of our Ask Dyson experts on 1866MYDYSON.

    Kind regards

    Roller bar will not spin on dc25 animal

    If the brush bar motor is running try putting on a new belt. If the motor is not running it may be the main switch, the switch that activates when you recline the handle, the motor itself or a loose wire or connector somewhere. Check the connection between the vacuum and the power head. If power isn't transferred properly the motor will not run.
    You have to closely check all these areas to find the problem.
