Brush Head Repair for Dyson DC65 - One side not spinning
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 жов 2024
- Is only one side of your Dyson Brush Head Spinning? If so, its probably the brush axle/gear that is broken. This video walks you through the replacement of the broken component of the brush head so you don't have to overspend on a brand new brush head.
Here's the link to the part I used, the price has definitely increased since I did this project!

Thanks for the video. Currently that part was listed at $50. The whole cleaner head assembly was $89 from Dyson, so I went that route instead.
Yes thank you for creating this video, mine broke and I almost ordered the spindles ONLY not realizing that the gear behind is the one you need to replace along with a new belt. Very informative
Many thanks for the excellent video, very helpful. I had ordered the replacement gear, but was stuck trying to get the housing open to replace it. All fixed and running now. Much appreciated.
Great video! I ran into exactly the same issue. But I tried the Dyson service store first, they replaced a new vacuum head for free...I recommend to try them first before to do the diy based of this video!
I left the gear drive housing together and drilled through the parts with 1/8" drill and tapped the holes for the bolt I used to hold the reassembled drive together. Ground the bolt head down till it fit in the brush drive cavity. Make sure to stay centered when drilling. If you fail, just buy the new gear assembly. Make sure you thread the bolt in from the side that will "tighten" if a brush would jam. That way, you do not need a nut on the bolt and it just needs to be long enough to reach the far cavity.
Did the exact same thing, works so far
My bearing also separated from that part and stayed with the outer piece. It was locked up when I checked it and that's likely where all these breaks start
OMG...THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO because I have been driving my self nuts trying to figure out what is supposed to be what....and what is wrong and how to get it all apart!!! I have the exact same problem...and no manual. I never would have been able to put it all back together without your video...BUT.....I am still stuck at the part, that I forgot, how to connect the two parts back together and there is a lighter gray half circle clip maybe that I have off from some place and can't remember where that goes and how. I did not see one in your video. It either goes on the main vacuum part or the main brush part somewhere where the two meet.
Thanks! You've save me about $100. You looked to be doing this real time, so my hats off to you. To help others, at 6:15 I think it's best to take off those 2 brush rotators so you can slip that out of that housing. Then once that's all out, you can completely take out that the spindle and belt. The video shows him kind of breaking the egg to get the yolk out, but just take it all apart and it's much easier.
Definitely in hind sight that would have made this easier! great Improvement
I bought off the link and followed the video. Perfect! works like new again. Thanks to you and the eBay seller, who was super helpful!
Great tutorial, saved me from buying a new cleaning head. Thanks for a great video!
спасибо отремонтировал , вселили надежду
Thanks for this it was the only one i could find that opened up the belt-motor housing. I also got a replacement spindle too but it took so long to get I forgot what the spring was for. From your video i could see around 8:22 that it was held down by the small black button type piece with a screw through it -which thankfully i still have. What still doesn't make sense is, why screw it down? Doesn't that take the tension out of it? It makes me wonder if I'm missing another piece...
This issue happens all the time on my Dyson Ball vacuum. The spindle axle should not brake/shear this way, especially on a high-end brand such as Dyson, this easily. Dyson's first mistake was making design/engineering decision to use plastic as the material for this part instead of metal. This alone is a justification to stay clear of these specific models of Dyson product.
AWSOME video!
Your video saved me a lot of time and effort figuring out how to fix our vacuum.
Did the new gear come with a new set of bearings too?
What is the part number for the belt driven gear please, I have the same exact issue and trying to find that velt driven gear and where did you find to buy it from please?
Hope to hear back from you thank you.

I watched your video to repair my Dyson and it worked very well. Good instructions on disassembled. I also ordered the part from your source and received it in days. Thanks for posting fix.
This part is built to be broken :)
I'm getting a dc65 animal tomorrow from Facebook hopefully I don't have to do much repair wise I'm hoping that the head and everything works perfectly I think mine will just need cleaned (update) I got the dc65 and it turned out it just needed cleaned so I cleaned it up and it works like new now
Hi Dan! Thx for sharing. What is the replacement gear part number / name and where did you bought it from.
i found it on ebay, the price went up from when I repaired, but its still cheaper than a new brush head.. www.ebay.com/itm/Dyson-DC41-DC40-DC65-UP13-DC77-Brush-Spindle-Belt-Driven-Gear-For-Cleaner-Head-/382062164708
If you have access to a 3D printer, then its an one hour print. See my comment above.
excellent video and excellent master , thank you very much ......
Great video! Helped me to disassemble.
Comment: on 6:24, T8 should be used. I mostly break the screw trying to use T9 🙂 Other places: T9 or T15
Unfortunately because part cost about $55 on link provided and it is not possible to find this simple part in any other place and full new Dyson head cost $92 include labor, repairing looks less wise :-)
Interesting, perhaps they changed the screw at some point, i only used 9 and 15.
Parts on both links below are out of stock, does anyone have a viable source?
At 2:12 you easily pulled off the ends, if mine won’t budge (there is hair in there that needs removed), am I out of luck and need to buy a whole new head?
At 2:12 the piece pulled out because it was broken, isn't supposed to pull out. the whole part I put back in there goes in the middle and the sides sandwich it in.. Theres a cap on there that does come off of the little axle(one of which is on the part that pulled out at 2:12) that is screwed on, did you remove the screw? Look around 4:30 which is where I unscrewed it. If it doesn't come off after unscrewing that screw, maybe see if you can get some wd40 behind it? maybe through the screw hole on the top?
Thanks for the video and part source,.....can you tell me if this applies to the multifloor2 / U19 ??? Just starting to dig into the disassembly, but the audio certainly matches my unit!!!
I tried the link to the ebay supplier but it shows "0" parts available. Any suggestions on where I can find this part. Thanks

@@deckhulcy6891 send a message to the seller and ask for the ETA for availability, when I did that, the seller added one, if not, they might be able to tell you when they will be avaiable..
It certainly looks the same so its probably the same method of replacement..It may or may not be the exact same part, perhaps you might want to disassemble and see if it looks the same..
Thanks same problem I just ran into.
i have a DC 77 and after i bumped the powerhead it stopped spinning,was wondering if these 2 machines have the same powerhead?looks similiar
i bet it does, you could open it up an take a look, and if the part looks like it matches, you would be halfway to replacing it..
Where did you order the replacement part for the beater bar motor assembly? What was it called??
the part i used was ordered here:
www.ebay.com/itm/Dyson-DC41-DC40-DC65-UP13-DC77-Brush-Spindle-Belt-Driven-Gear-For-Cleaner-Head-/382062164708
It looks like they raised the price a little, it was cheaper when I replaced it, but still much cheaper than a whole replacement brush assembly..
@@danscire6092 thank you! Much appreciated
Thank you, this video saved me a few £!
interesting video How do i remove the fixing plate off the brush bar UP22 model
Hey Dan... Where did you find the replacement part? Been looking and can't find anything other that the whole powerhead.
Yeah that was the trickiest part! i found on ebay, using this link:
www.ebay.com/itm/Dyson-DC41-DC40-DC65-UP13-DC77-Brush-Spindle-Belt-Driven-Gear-For-Cleaner-Head-/382062164708
It says there are none available, it said that when I was looking as well. I messaged the seller and asked about the ETA for a part and they responded with "i will add one for you", and i was able to order.. I think you can try the same thing.. message the seller and ask when they expect to have any parts and perhaps they will do the same. Good Luck.. definitely saves money with less than 1 hour effort..
Thank you Dan.
$40 for that small piece of plastic is insane!!
If you paid 40 u got robbed u factor in the labor you can replace the whole head for not too much more
@@NguyenHoang-jw8yu Now he increased for 49.99 + delivery
I'd pin the part comment to the top, or put the link in the description. However danngg $50 for the spindle!!! You can get the whole replacement head for $100. Woof.
Done! Yes the price has risen, I paid like $35 i think..
Do you have a link for eBay to get the replacement part
wher can i buy the spindle tho
wow! $50 for this part!!!
I can not find this part any idea on where to purchase?

Would you please share the model for the work light you are using? I am looking for something compact like that. Thanks
Believe it or not, I think I got my light at Walgreens. I looked on their site and I didn't see it anymore, but I think its almost the exact same as this one from Amazon.. I like its portability and the magnetic base is quite helpful for many applications..

I wonder if you jbweld it would it pass or would the glue break
I didn't try, i thought about it, but then i found the part and figured it was just going to break again if I tried gluing it.. I even thought about drilling a hole all the way through and using a bolt, but I figured its too small.. if it happens again i might try something else.
Tried everything but still brush head doesn't spin😢
Would this part fit dc66
have you found any one else that has this part?
Sorry, I haven't, but the one i have listed, even though it says they are sold out, when i messaged that person they added one to the listing..Actually right now if you check it says theres one,,
That part cost 60$ now. I can buy a used powerhead for the same price. Ridiculous
I found the part here:
