Dyson Ball Animal: Loud grinding noise from ball

Mon, 09 Mar 2026 15:55:33 -0700

This happened mid yesterday while vacuuming stairs (if that’s relevant)- so there’s a bit of jostling the vacuum around as I go up the steps. Halfway up, ball starts making a loud grinding noise that makes me afraid to run it. Let it cool down and it sounded even worse when starting back up. It’s not the whistling noise others describe and it isn’t just upon start and stop. Wondering if there’s something I can do before reaching out for professional repair.

Dyson Ball Animal: I am not getting suction to the canister when using the brushbar

Sun, 23 Feb 2025 14:32:46 -0700

When using the dyson animal vacuum in upright mode (not the pull out hose), I am not getting suction. When I utilize the hose which you pull out of the handle, I have suction.

Dyson Ball Animal 2: Attachment hose for wand doesn't work

Tue, 05 Nov 2024 14:17:35 -0700

I purchased a used Dyson animal 2 and the piece on bottom of cannister the oval shaped, convex part that covers either hose won't flip. So wand has zero power.

I can repair myself, but not sure exactly how carriage assembly that moves aforementioned convex piece has been assembled wrong. It is used, so not sure how it goes together.

Thanks

Dyson Ball Animal 2 Total Clean: Power roller does not move.

Thu, 18 Jan 2024 14:03:48 -0700

Have taken it apart to make sure nothing is keeping it from moving? Now what? It is only 4 years old. We have both carpet and vinyl flooring. Turn off the brush on hard floor and use it on for the carpet. As you suggest.

Dyson Ball Animal: Why does my brush bar not spin?

Fri, 05 Jan 2024 13:02:05 -0700

I have recently replaced the entire head module after the old one burned out and things were working good for a few months. Now the brush bar has stopped working again. The issue started with the brush bar spinning intermittently when I lowered the handle to engage to brush bar. The brush bar would only engage when I held the handle at certain angles. Now it won’t engage at all. When I remove the head I still have suction. I suspect this might be a wiring issue. Any ideas on what parts need replaced?

Dyson Ball Animal: Why does my Dyson ball 25 make Loud deep whistle sound on start up

Tue, 05 Sep 2023 08:12:44 -0700

Starting up my Dyson ball has a deep almost whistle sound for a few mins after starting up. When it shuts off it literally sounds like a jet fighter engine spooling down.

Only thing I can sugest is a seal on something or a bad gate when I switch from using the wand to push mode. Maybe something didn't close. It partially goes away while using it.

Dyson Ball Animal 2: How can I clean the purple part on the inside canister?

Fri, 18 Aug 2023 07:29:37 -0700

I read the suggestions for the other Dyson and that is not the same as this one that does not open up that way with this as far as I can tell I can unscrew it the purple part from the underneath if I had the right well basically they're stripped and I need to just get them out and get all new Dyson screws does anyone know the right tool for Dyson screws and how to buy more or if I can just replace the entire purple canister in the middle I don't know but there's got to be a way to keep it clean throughout it doesn't open up The filter in the center doesn't even get dirty and it doesn't have much suction

WHen It's upright the hose works fine, but when running (normal use) it seems to not have good vacuum. Is there a seal that's possibly broken? Where are the most common failures?
