- Today im fixing my Dyson Rollerball DC50 that has lost suction, i tear it all down to find the problem so watch if you have other issues too.
its easy to repair most vacuum cleaners and hoovers with simple DIY home fixes and dont forget to clean your filters - Навчання та стиль
Mate, you've just saved me the cost of a new one. The blockage wasn't in the same place as yours, but just seeing what parts can be removed and cleared is a lifesaver.
So far so good with this vacuum. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx8ISPQRRAfpAaX4msGjyodObTBnlj4T5g I was a little concerned to find it seems to be all plastic, but the reviews were good, so I'm hoping for the best. Very easy to assemble Recommened, and only attachments I've used so far work well, and are easy to use. Doing a good job on the new carpet in my bedrooms and stairs. Works well on the hardwood on my main floor too. Reasonable weight and cord length. I already knew from an earlier review that it wouldn't fit under furniture, but I can use my Eufy for that, so no problem - the high traffic areas that need a stronger suction was really what I bought this for. If it continues as it's started, it will be a good buy and well worth the money. I have had two Shark Rocket stick vacs in the past that are super easy to use, but the motors just don't last well, even with scrupulous cleaning of the filters. I'm hoping for better with this Bissell.
all i can say is thank you SO MUCH. I was having the worst day and felt like a failure. Fixing the hoover has genuinely changed my mood. And it was satisfying pulling out the blockages... cheers!
Thank you so much! My Dyson was doing the same and I couldn’t figure out how to take it apart.
This video was so helpful and now my Dyson is back to normal 😁
Wow...thank you!!!! You described the issue just as I had -- NOISE and no suction -- and thanks to you, I ultimately solved it. Very gratifying!
Dude I was on my way to Dyson repair when I saw your video. I went home instead watched your video and it is now good as new. These vacuums are e pensive as hell and as well to fix them. I saved about 125 dollars Thanks Man U R the real deal. 🎉
Glad it saved you all that money that's why I post these videos
Bought one of these second hand, got it home and it didn’t work. Your video single handedly saved the purchase, thank you!!
Karl, Thank you for this excellent Dyson Vac repair/service video. Did everything you covered including replacing the two filters. Lots of clogs in different areas. Cleaned a lot of surfaces. Keep up the good work!
In using the vacuum the past few weeks i could just tell something was off. It was working but not optimally. This video helped me decipher the problem - clog in the back elbow joint - and get it working. Thanks for putting this out into the world to help fools like me! Thank you!
I hate this model.. I've had so many issues in the past thinking i fixed it only to have it break a few tries later. I completely dismantled it thanks to your video. Found a massive clog in the filter and the bottom hose. Was able to fix it and it operates like new. Thanks a bunch!
i have to agree i have repaired and unblocked mine so many times that's why i made this video to help others
Thank you very much for making this video, I bought my Dyson second hand and it stopped working after a while, thanks to your video it's now fixed!
Thank you so much for your brilliant video. I was ready to take my vacuum back to Costco and get it exchanged. After watching your video, I thought let me try one more time. I opened the garbage part and checked it again. Once I clicked it back and put vacuum on suction was back. Thank you 🙂
Absolutely brilliant I couldn't work out why it wasn't sucking up until you showed me how to remove bottom hose saved me buying a new vacuum
Thank you for doing this video. Helped me fixed my Dyson. In my case , the problem was just as yours. Cleaned the dust container and it worked just as before.
Thank you so much for this video Karl, you are amazing! I had a 1 year used DC 50 sitting around for the past 5 years (I'm a single mom of 3) because everything worked, but no suction and it was virtually brand new. It killed me to throw it out because I knew it had to be an easy fix. Years ago, I watched countless you tube videos, took it apart, cleaned it out and nothing. Today, I decided to try to resurrect it and immediately came across your video...my "secret filter compartment" overly was packed like yours with all kinds of things! Thank you, thank you, thank you. My Dyson is now running amazing and back to work!
Glad it helped you out
I really hated putting this together when it was gifted to me and for the amount of cash these things cost they shouldn't clog up like this after a short amount of use. This was very helpful and I'm going to tackle mine now.
Yes, yes! You're so right on point. There's little doubt that the Dyson cleans well, but the collection chamber/bin is a farce. I don't recommend these if you have a shedding pet unless you have the stomach and/or patience to field strip it and reassemble every odd month. I also recommend a decent supply of chopsticks kept on hand for fishing out the hair at the upper top of the collection chamber at each dumping.
Also, the Dyson brush roller seems to not last as in loosing bristles quickly, more importantly the dual brush roller with the hardwood/lino soft bristles which disappear. The DC50 and others has the washable cone upper filter which is such a bugger to clean, but I figured out the best and perhaps only method is to pop off the top portion clip to roll the filter in backwards to expose the inside which holds a lot of crud! A lot of rinsing and using a plastic dental pick to pick out the crud collection at the bottom. This is a piss-poor design in my opinion. My last gripe is that the Dyson is super loud. Oh, I'm sure everyone hates the wand hose too... when you finish fighting to stretch it out longer before toppling over the vac, the less suction you shall receive. haha
I still have my DC51 Pet (these are not for shedding pets!), but rightfully retired it for a Hoover (Air Steerable) - which is a lovely beast of a machine and the filters are so simple to rinse! I'd leave the DC51 by the side of the road, but it's worth too much to simply giveaway and why not get a few bucks back on a bad investment anyways? It's a designer vacuum in essence, as in shoddy workmanship and the like, but you pay dearly for the name printed on it. ;-P
Thank you. Visiting my elderly parents for Fathers Day and our Huskie dog shed fur all over their carpet and their Dyson dc50 wasn’t sucking on top or bottom and it turned out that it had the same clog. Thanks for saving the day!
So well done! Was going to pitch my DC50, then found your tutorial. As other comments have mentioned, plz clear the filter, often. Tanks Fella, you’re a real gent
Four years later your video is still a great insight in how to take a Dyson apart. Having just watched it, I was able to fix ours and saved having to take it to the repair shop. Thanks mate. 👍🙂
No problem mate happy it helps
@KarlFixes I'm going to be fixing my 88 year old second cousins so I'll keep this video. Not sure what's wrong but I may be asking you, lol. Thanks for the video
Great. Had already taken it all apart, no blockages but your video made me think of the seals. The one that switches between vac and tube was a little out of place, pushed back into place and all other seals checked and it is working fine again. Cheers!
I never found a blockage, but through these instructions and cleaning, my Dyson started working again. Thank you!
Great to hear!
Thank you! It turned out I had exactly the same blockage and this video enabled me fix my vacuum cleaner.
Karl, thanks for your video, I had a DC41 with the same issue, your disassembly instructions help me remove one side of the ball cover and filter, and allowed me to spot the cause of my Vac's issue; a pen stuck in the L bend of the upright hose near the ball which prevented the rubber seals engaging properly when the vac was put into floor mode. Removed the pen and the Vac is working normally with full suction. Cheers.
So glad I could help its why I put these videos up
Thank you so much! you just saved me from spending extra money that I can use for something more important then getting this fixed or buying another one.
Thanks again and God Bless
This helped me clean up a vacuum that I got for free and now it works pretty much just as new!!! thank you so much for taking the time to film, edit, and post this video. It really made my day being able to fix the vacuum and have it work well!
Glad I could help!
Thanks. I didn't know about this filter part either. I'd cleaned the other filters several times, but not that one. After watching this video, I opened it up and it had a solid layer of dust so thick that I couldn't see the mesh underneath! I cleared it out and it now seems twice as powerful, especially the hand held/hose part. (and it fixed my issue with a change in tone/loss of suction)
This is the second time I've watched this video and it fixed my $500 vacuum both times. Thank you!!
I appreciate the full breakdown. Through following your video I was able to see what all the arrows mean and could troubleshoot my own issue. Saving this video for next time.
Glad it helped
Thank you for giving me the courage to dismantle and probe what the problem was. My problem was the same as yours. The dust canister was completely blocked by dirt and stuff packed into that hole. I used a needle nose pliers to get all the sections cleared and it works fine! Thanks again, love!
Glad I could help!
Thank you so much for this video! I was able to successfully get my Dyson working again, and saved a fair amount of money buying a new one 👏👏 Thanks again 👍
Like the others commenting below - you saved me a trip to the repairers. It was the blockage at that point that fixed it for me as well.
Thank you SO much!! I was ready to take mine to the shop but had it working good as new after figuring out where the clog was, after watching you!
So grateful for the demo. I am the worlds worst man, I don't know how to fix anything.
Thanks so much for sharing this. You've just saved me the cost of repair/buying new. You're a diamond! 💎
Was thinking of chucking mine. Now back to full suction thanks to you! 🥳
Ladies and Gentlemen
Thanks to this video my dyson works great now!
My Dyson was working but only the hose part. I cleaned all the filters, brush
and so on. My Dyson still was only sucking through the hose part.
So I knew it had to be a problem between the brush part and sucking.
At the back where the hose hooks to the ball part, little red thing holding the hose on, i slid that out and low and behold that's where the clog was.
It was a water bottle cap! Yes something so stupid, but simple to fix.
I finally got it out, and got all the clog it was holding behind it, and it works great now!
Great to hear you fixed it
I love that you vacuumed the kitchen table when you were done. Like it never happened!
When I was a child my father always told me I was mechanically inclined. This dyson was the test! It had stopped sucking completely and I could see all the hair wound around the roller, but had no clue about the dust (I live in mid-town Manhattan) stuffed inside the head -- even though I'd cleaned it thoroughly (or so I thought) after someone gave it to me as a hand-me-down. Should work beautifully now. Fingers crossed!
C'mon Claire, did it work ?
I find it bizarre that anyone would try to rectify a problem and then not bother to see if it is actually fixed before making a comment about it on UA-cam.
Or is that a mid-town Manhattan thing ? The medium is stronger than the message, perhaps.
Your video fixed my issue after watching 15 other videos that were useless. Thank you! Liked, Subscribed, Comment.
This is EXACTLY what was wrong with my vacuum, thanks for the video!
within 2 minutes I found a kids pencil stuck in the base of the hose attachment and my dyson is working great again! many thanks 😊
What a great instruction! I repaired my hoover. It was easy and fun. Thanks :-)
Thank you so much for this excellent tutorial. I was able to take it apart and fix it myself as my spouse looked amazed!
Not all heroes wear capes! This solved my problem. Thank you so much!!
I almost bought another Dyson. You saved my life. Thanks man!
Hi , this video is very helpful and I have added it to my list of reminders. Such a clear fuss free breakdown of where the trouble could be with the hoover. I am completely not mechanically minded, but it felt so easy to take the hoover parts apart , and put it back together with your clear instructions
Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
THIS WORKED! I was able to get my Dyson to work. For me, I used baking soda when cleaning. It was clogged under the color piece in the main collector area/jug. There is a tab near the red part on the juggy thing where you can open it up and clean out. In this video it's at 7:36. I found a cotton ball cleaned the gray filtery area as I had both dander and baking soda fully clogged there. Baking soda is a no-no and now I will listen to that!
Excellent!
Brilliant thanks for this. Just had a go and it was all clogged up round a hair grip! All sorted now and working a treat !
Thank you for saving my family having to buy a new one!! Got it fixed now. Kind regards from Texas.
Howdy, my wife was about to go get a new vacuum cleaner. Thanks to your video I was able to fix ours and it now works better than ever. Thanks Mate!!!
Glad I could help

You're welcome!
Thanks for the walk-through! My 7-year old dyson ball is running like new.
Excellent Thank you. Fixed my Dyson. Didn't have a clue. It was very helpful indeed. i am very grateful to you.
Thanks for the video ! I did everything except a thorough cleaning of the canister . It worked !
Thanks, this helped me out! Hose was detached from the brush piece. I was ready to toss it out.
I've been going without a vacuum for months because I had no idea where to take it to get fixed. This video absolutely saved the day! Thank you.
Great to hear!
Helped this independent woman continue to not need no man… except the one in the UA-cam video! Thanks for your help!
I've learned how to do a lot of things for the very same reason!
Only needed a man for his video tho
Thanks mate! The part at 3:10 solved my issue. Had a pen stuck there that was keeping the two parts from mating correctly. all good now!
Hey Karl. Thanks for this video. I have a newer and different model to yours. I was able to disassemble it using your video and now the vacuum is up and running again. Back in business. Cheers.👍👍
Nice work!
Wow, you just saved me from buying a new vacuum. My Dyson had the same issue as yours. Much appreciated.
No problem
Thanks mate, I was able to get my dyson going again just like she was when new. Thanks for the tutorial!
Big thanks Karl, your 2019 video of the dc50 is spot on, cheers Paul
Many thanks!
Thank you soooooo much. Mine was making the same noise and lack of suction through base -head. You helped by showing how to get into the curvey part behind the head and low and behold, a half a cup of packed hair blocking it up - thanks to two long-curley headed daughters : ) I also found another filter I didn't know was there. Thanks Karl !!
Thanks glad to help out
@@KarlFixes you're so helpful and saved me a decent amount of money, do you have a Pattern?

This was very helpful! Mine just had a huge hair clog and after removing that, it works like new.
Speak English.
Thank you so much for this video. It helped me fix my vacuum!!
Thanks! Mine was simple to unclog once I found out the bottom rectangle could be removed!
I'll add my applause! Very helpful video. Successful cleaning here and my vacuum is likely good as new.

Greetings from Washington, DC!
I love the subtitle on your intro “or at least tries” ...
I wish your channel great success
Cheers mate
Thanks for the help, it fixed my vacuum.
Great stuff, thanks! For me on my DC40 it was the little flexible tube between the brush head and the base itself, so at the front of the cleaner unit, yours was clear at 4:30 but mine was absolutely clogged solid with fluff and dreaded Christmas tree needles, unblocked it and I'm a very happy chappy. Wooohooo!!!!!
yes thats a very commen place for blockages in the head to the main unit
Thank you thank you thank you!!! I managed to fix my vacuume and learned so much about it too
Super helpful! Thanks! Back to cleaning up!

Thank you, sorted out my Light Ball Multi-Floor. I swear they don't make them like they used too, my old DC04 is still representing in the garage
