Dyson DC 37: Why does my Dyson DC37 lose suction after just 2 seconds?

Mon, 21 Apr 2025 02:24:26 -0700

When I turn on my Dyson DC37, it works for about two seconds with good suction. Then, I hear a sound as if something is blocking it, and it completely loses suction.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

Disassembled and checked all parts of the hose and air pathways for any blockage—everything looks clear.
Bought a brand new filter and thoroughly cleaned the entire filter housing.

Despite these efforts, the problem persists with no improvement.

Has anyone experienced this issue or have any ideas on what might be causing it? Thanks for any advice!
Cheers Pete

Dyson DC14: No suction through hose in upright position

Sat, 15 Mar 2025 13:11:11 -0700

I get no suction from the hose. I've checked every part/area for a blockage and everything is clear. I've changed my Post Filter and emptied the clear bin and even looked to see if the internals were clear. When I have the canister off, the suction on the right side tube is very strong, but when I put the canister back on, there is very weak suction through the hose. There is still suction when I vacuum, just not through the hose when it's in the upright position.

Trying to recondition old unit and bring it as close to new as possible. Obviously replace work/damaged parts etc. My question is - Is it worth trying to open up the cyclone assembly to clean it or is just running water through it enough?
