- Dyson DC39 Animal HEPA canister vacuum repair. The motor was damaged, making a grinding noise and smelling like ozone. This video shows the procedure for swapping out the damaged motor for a new one. The new motor was $85, which is MUCH cheaper than the $700 vacuum cleaner. The full repair took about 20 minutes (the video plays at 2x speed) and required a small T15 torx driver and a pair of needle nose pliers.
Excellent video…I was able to replace my DC39 motor successfully 😂 only had issues with the screw driver without long range and had to order new one to open couple of screws…it was a breeze to replace once I got the right screw driver!!
Completely blooming brilliant. If I can do it in 30 minutes with this video, with no parts left over at the end, a 6 year old can. You just need the right tool. Thank-you for posting it.
Seems each succeeding generation of Dyson vacuum is easier to disassemble, and thus repair. Your video was extremely helpful. Thanks for taking the time to make it!
Thanks for the video, successfully changed my dyson DC37 motor and now have our dyson back, and it is more powerful than before!
Thank you very much for this video. I changed the motor in 20 minutes, it was very easy with your video. One thing I would add is that there is a lot of dust in the motor compartment, so it would be a good idea to have another vacuum available or to use a soft brush to remove it to a bin.
Extremely helpful. I found a site to order a new motor and followed your video step by step. As I said Extremely helpful. Took me a little longer as I forgot to put the rubber disc from the old motor on, before putting it back together. Once together it worked great. Thanks a bunch😊
Hi @patriciagreenwood3040, where did you find your motor?
Just did the replacement today. Everything went pretty well. It took me about an hour. Just a bit of an issue with the screws (those that are located deep). Followed your advice and use an Allen key. I was worried about the wire connections (they are not clearly label) but you can't miss them since the motor goes only in one position. At any rate, thanks again for posting.
Glad it went well! Those deep screw holes were a PAIN!
Very easy to understand. Step by Step instructions to replace and reassemble this Dyson model DC39 with a new motor.Thankyou for extremely helpful and informative vide
Super helpful!! And I couldn't find this anywhere else. Thank you.
Excellent video thank you, tear down worked exactly the same for the DC37. Motor changed!
Thank you so much, super clear steps, happy to say that replacement motor working fine. Very kind of you.
Very helpful video! I changed out the motor in our Dyson DC37. Saved $100s. Thank you!
Top video! New motor installed easily by following this guide, Dyson purring again. Thanks
Great job explaining the process 👍🏼
So clear consise no nonsense no faffing love it. Brilliant well done you. Thank you
This video saved me almost $900 i cant thank u enough
Thank you for that. You’re a life saver.
Still, if I won a Dyson I would give it away, I hate the bastard.
Thanks for the vid! To get the deep screws I had to use a 5/64 hex key. It fit perfectly, and 3/32 was too big.
Thanks for the guide ! My dc37 will last another 9 years now !
The reason the motor burns out is the hepa filter is blocked so your new motor generally wont last long. Also the reason the hepa filter gets blocked is the cyclone gaskets develop holes on all DC39s as they used a substandard gasket foam.
I noticed that my filter looks pretty dark on the inside, just like the one in this video.
I'm having trouble separating the filter out. I'll have to have another go at that tomorrow.
@@ClarenceDold ua-cam.com/video/R6kuwrewFFg/v-deo.html this was a huge help for me.. I have don’t both of my kids vacuums. It’s a 62-year-old female with no vacuum experience can do it, anyone can
After viewing your video, I have ordered my replacement motor to fix my DC37 vacuum. Thanks so much for posting this video.
Good luck! Hopefully your replacement goes smoothly.
Really good detailed video. My only comment would be to replace the clogged Hepa filter as this would reduce the life of the motor due to overheating.
Thanks for the video, I have ordered a new motor for my DC 39 (fingers crossed). By the way the video plays better on 2x speed :)
£70 motor or £400 vacuum (at least)? No brainer really. Service Engineer in me couldn't bare the thought of just chucking it and buying a brand new one. Great video, thank you. Just awaiting new motor to arrive to exchange out. Probably say it's worth cleaning the internal filters as much as possible before re-assembly.
thx! your tutorial made my motor swap a piece of cake ;-)
Thank you for this very helpful video. My Dyson has a second life.
Made life a lot easier, thank you
Great video, thanks for the upload.
Big help right here! TY for posting.
Yep, ours lasted 10yrs. Failed quite suddenly, giving up some smoke and terrible smell. Motor started to slow down before i turned it off. It also tripped the arc fault breaker ... before we reset that and tried again, that is when the smoke came.
Just replaced a motor quite an easy job and quick with wrench
Nice video, very helpful. Just a FYI the torex driver was a T15.
Glad it was helpful. I'll update the description to T15 size. Appreciate the correction!
Thank you for this clear video, you were very fast in disassembling it! But I unfortunately looked for and hoped to see how the big hepa cylinder filtre can be removed because I have to clean the upper part of the ball (one of my cats peed on it). Did you ever go any further in disassembling it? I saw that you didn’t publish much videos on this UA-cam channel maybe you won’t see my comment but I don’t want to throw my vacuum cleaner away if possible so, I give a try …
Great video interesting wondering why you don’t use your cordless for speed, i use my cordless driver all the time on the bench
Hello Thanks for the help you give us, thanks to you people will not throw the vacuum cleaner .. I wanted to ask you for help, my Dyson DC33 when I plug it into the socket it disconnects the light meter, how to check if something is in the mass? Thank you
AWESOME VIDEO!!!! Thank you Sooooo much! :-)
I've pretty much done it all. old motors out all worked as you said. but my motor broke because dirt got into it. I need to change the hepa filter can you tell us how. do you have another tutorial please asap if you don't mind as old motors out whole things ready but fir the hepa filter p
please
Hey just did the replacement awesome everything went well. Thanks so much for your detailed video. 1 question. Is the air coming from the filter back of vacuum under power cord supposed to be hot? And being a new motor is there a bit of a smell? Thanks.
Important: make sure you clean the paper filter with compressed air or preferably, replace it (or it will burn out again).
How we disconnect the motor and connect the new one ?
Would you be so kind as to tell me if there is a second filter on that DC39? I was told there is only the washable one you pull out, but I was also told there's a second one inside that should be changed too??
The white wall surrounding the motor is the filter. Not to sure if you already found the info out already. It is my understanding it is the motor post filter. However I could be corrected on the proper terminology.
So helpful, thank you!!!!
Thanks for this
Thank you for this. Mine just quit power all of a sudden. I got it working again but it gets hot and just isn't the same. Would you suggest I change the motor and where do I order one for the cheapest price? Would appreciate your feedback. I am doing all of this on my own. Not bad for a female.
Maybe just replace the filter, that is blocking airflow - but it is very tricky - look at other vids, including on the DC54 which is about the same. Search for spares on google quote main model like DCxx
Thanks for the video. My only question is about the carbon filter that surrounds the motor. It looked like it had some carbon pulled through and maybe that's what damaged the motor.? Shouldn't that be cleaned out or also replaced? I'm assuming that carbon will damage the new motor?
I think the carbon is coming from the motor, itself, not the outside world. Electrical contact to the spinning part (the commutator) is made by a pair of “brushes” which are basically spring-loaded bricks of graphite. Graphite is soft, highly conductive, and slippery, so it does the job without wearing down the commutator, even after literally millions of revolutions. But the brushes get sacrificed in the process. They wear down over time like a pencil lead (which is why they’re spring-loaded - to keep the ever-shortening block pressed against the commutator to maintain good electrical contact). This produces a lot of carbon dust over time. If it’s really bad in your case, maybe you could vacuum it out? If only you had a working vacuum!
Thank you !
What is the difference in the A, B and C series motors?
Thanks. Please advise the motor replacement part number and where to buy it
This is the one I got. evacuumstore.com/p-20926-dyson-dc39-motor.aspx
Hi, thanks for the great video. could you show me where you purchased the replacement? I saw it for $80 on amazon but the reviews keep saying it doesn't fit.
I got it from evacuumstore.com. I think it was this one: evacuumstore.com/p-20926-dyson-dc39-motor.aspx
Thanks so much! Ordered mine!
What motor did you use to replace the original, a copy or another original part, could you let me know where you got from please
Hi Paul. It was this one. Price has gone up a bit since I bought it, but still way cheaper than a whole new vacuum. I’m pretty sure it’s Dyson OEM. evacuumstore.com/p-20926-dyson-dc39-motor.aspx
It's a shame you didn't replace or clean the circular filter the motor assembly fits into. This is stupidly a non replaceable part as far as Dyson is concerned. This filter plugs up causing the motor to overheat and burn out. I'm sure this causes 99% of the motor failures. A vaccum must have all the filters clean to run cool and have a long motor life.
Exelente
Changed the motor but still getting a burning smell after using for about 5 min as I was before changing the motor. Any idea on why.
Because the exhaust filter was saturated with the smell of burning and it was desirable to wash the motor casing before installing a new motor, the smell will pass over time!
Man I just hate those screws in deep holes. I used a drill to widen the hole till my screwdriver fit in.
Good idea! I should have done the same.
The screws take a torx bit not a Allen key.
Thanks for the video . i have the same issue with my Dyson 39. Where did you find the replacement motor?
I got it at evacuumstore.com. You should be able to search for Dyson DC39 Motor. It was about $85 with free shipping and worked great.
Hi may i know where did u get the replacement motor that is genuine dyson cause i cant get it anymore cheers
I got it from evacuumstore.com (evacuumstore.com/p-20926-dyson-dc39-motor.aspx), but I just checked and it says it’s unavailable. Maybe out of stock? But I googled the part number and it seems to be available in a few other places. I don’t know anything about these other places, but hopefully they’re reputable. Here’s the first one that popped up: www.partswarehouse.com/Dyson-Motor-Assy-DY-918954-03-p/dy-918954-03.htm?gclid=CjwKCAjwtdeFBhBAEiwAKOIy55hzBo9mcJjDu3cOkYRm24FKX_3CcAsJ9x-awS9AM7WKKkUlVmiQFRoCK9kQAvD_BwE&Click=365719
I wish I took a photo of which tab the white and black cable connected too
I’m guessing it’s AC 120V, so in reality it probably doesn’t matter which is which.
Can you please tell me how to replace the top duct assembly? I cracked it and need to replace but can't figure out how to remove the broken one.
Sorry. Wish I knew. We’re you able to figure it out?
@@2noracj Yes I did, not easy though. Maybe I should post it?
Great video. Where did you order the motor from??
I got it from evacuumstore.com. I searched for Dyson DC39. I paid around $85.
Helpful but you did not clean or replace the engine filters. A clogged filter would cause overheating.
İyi güzelde motoru değiştirmekle iş bitmiyor iki filtrede yenilenmesi gerekli motorun yaptigi arıza gene aynı arıza...
