I know this is an old video but thank you so much for making this! My puppy chewed my cord (for the third time 🤬) and my husband was so mad he refused to spend the $100 to get it replaced at the vacuum store again. I was able to do it myself thanks to your video! I'm the least handy person on this planet so if I can do it anybody can! Thanks again! 😁
asquaregarden Now I feel way less embarrassed that my otherwise well behaved 5 yr old Lab chewed thru mine too. What is it with these tasty dyson cords? Lol. Thanks so much for giving me the confidence that I can order a replacement cord off Amazon& do it myself!
It’s worth letting everyone know who’s trying this that the switch cover has tiny parts inside that can spring apart when reassembling- be careful take a photo of the switch components inside. Hold the two push buttons up together when you connect the button shelf back on !
Thank you for this! My dad used to repair my Dyson but he's since passed away so I'm slowly learning how to fix stuff around my house. I've had my Dyson 07 for about 15 years and it's still going. I accidentally broke one of the prongs on the plug and had a wee search on here and up popped your video! New cable is on route and your video seems easy to follow. Thank you for uploading, much appreciated xxx
The section for disconnecting the white wire at 2:38, where there is a small tab to release it, saved me a huge hassle trying to tug it apart. Thanks! Also, my T10 but worked to remove the screws on a DC40, I was panicking that I didn't have a T15 :)
Same! Thanks so much! My cat chewed mine and despite electrical tape it finally blew! The only thing I can say is when you remove that top panel with the buttons BE CAREFUL! there is a little white control arm and spring that fall out .. you definitely need those! They go to the silver button!
Just found one of this in the trash with the cord chew by a dog, i just deep clean the whole thing and will order the power cord to see if it's still works, thank's for the video it will guide me through.
I tried to find a T21 torx bit or screwdriver since your video said to use T21 screwdriver to remove screws. The closest I could find in the US is T20. When I searched for Dyson screwdriver, there is a repair kit with T6, T8 and T10 … no mention of T21.
Can't fault a person for knowing their limits. In truth I fixed mine but ended up buying a Dyson V8 also.The cordless one is the main vacuum and it is excellent for maintaining. Now we only use the animal when doing a deep cleaning.
5 stars - you saved us the price on a new Dyson with your vid. Thank you! Tip to others, be careful when you guys take out the actuator (the ON and OFF switch with red and gray buttons). There are small springs in there that popped out when I removed that part after taking out the T-15 screws. Other that easily fixable hiccup (thanks to looking at another vid ua-cam.com/video/bd_eCgG5UyQ/v-deo.html - this was great!
@@asquaregardenhi, checking if you have a video for this as the spring and white piece fell out as I removed the front panel and didn’t realize this would happen as I found your video afterwards. Where do the two pieces go? I can tell they go with the grey button 😅
Amazon link for replacement power cord has been added in the description.

The reason I had to replace it was the same. My pit puppy decided that her chew toys were not as tasty as a Dyson cord. I am glad it helped.

Really helpful video - thanks. The music made me feel like I was in Oga's Cantina on a Monday afternoon.

Thank you. Fixed my cord with no issues. This is the best video. Shows all the details and great video quality.
I am glad it helped.

Thank you for showing me how to change my power cord.

Good find. I would cut the cord before the chew and put a plug on it to make sure there are no other issues before buying a new cord.

Are you sure this was in my video? The screws are T15. I put it in the video right when I start removing them.
@@asquaregarden I must have misheard … thank you
Glad I could help
very helpful, thank you
Thank you!!
I have a Dyson DC25, will this method work for it as well? (As long as I buy the dc25cord) My dog chewed mine into.... Hubz is not happy. 😞
Really easy thanks!
thank you
Okay, so at 2:03, I'm having trouble getting this off. I'm afraid I'll break it? Did you have a hard time getting this piece loose?
It does require a little force but if it’s stuck you can try to wiggle it a little side to side to see if it starts moving. And I mean a little.
Thanks a lot 👍🏻👍🏻
Cheers
There's no way I have the patience to do this. Guess I'm getting a new vacuum.

You also neglected to demonstrate how to get the two actuators and the two springs back in place.
I appreciate the feedback and if I get a chance I'll make a video just for that.

@koristiles I got you. Give me a few minutes.
