At first when I put Bumblebee ( I named her after Transformers) on the charger the light came on and the vacuum went vrrm for a second before dying , than after that nothing just a click , now just silence and no light .. reminiscent of old car in the winter when the starter or alternator go out . I d like to know if there is a way to know which the problem is and if it's something I can myself fix and or replace.

So, next I took the main body to pieces to reveal the PCB. Using my multimeter I found there was 21V across the vacuum motor terminals. But when I went across the brush head supply terminals I get nothing. However if I go on the positive terminal of the brush head and the negative of the vacuum motor I get 21V.

i’m aware that there is some sort of overload to protect the brush head motor in the case of drawing high currents, and im assuming it’s in the negative line, but where is it? And can I reset or replace?

First let me say, the battery charges just fine and I’ve totally cleaned out the collection bin. I push the button to turn on the vacuum and it works, but then turns off and on over and over again while I’m still holding the button down.

I looked this up online and someone said the filter needed to be cleaned. So I took out the filter rinsed it as the online instructions said, let it dry, then put it back in. This did not solve the problem.

Any other suggestions?

Our V7 Motörhead has solid blue light when the trigger is pulled, but does not turn on. They have sent us a new charger and new battery but still nothing. They cannot send us a new one as they’re out of stock. Any ideas?

Thanks!

But power on the motor seems fine.

Please advise what I could do.

Then it won't start

The brushes  turn intermittently

When I connect the main drive to the brushes (without the wand) it works ok

Are there any suggestions as to how to fix the want

I’ve uploaded 2 pictures. 1st picture is my broken motor with the plastic part that I haven’t deattached yet. The other picture corresponds to another dyson v6 fluffy brush motor fullydisassembled

After a full charge, motor kicks out after 2 minutes of operation- put on charge again for one minute- motor starts again for an other minute- put on charge few more minutes- vacuum cleaner OK for ONE minute; and so forth. Could the life of battery has ended?

Note: on the body, the light is solid blue when in operation and flashing every time the cleaner stops.
