@@SHADOW.GGG- I should also stop saying “SO” too 😬 I’d rather be chatting than saying nothing at all to be honest but I’ll take that on board for my future videos 👍

Hi Nick, yeah I know, it’s the 2nd one I’ve had with the same fault so must be an earlier production one, I’ve had a few of these and some have a big blob of glue on them so maybe they know about it. Still a good find and fast turn around which cost me nothing. 👍

@Mickwild562 the best way pal lol well done 👏

@@emmanuelsciara7758 Thanks for your message. I’ve found on a very small amount, maybe 1 in 50 of the motors, if I swap them around on different hairdryers they do actually work. But the majority of them don’t so it is a strange one. I think I will do a video on trying to get a motor apart and dissect it, just for fun rather than a repair project really. Glad you find the video interesting too 👍

Very helpful vid again mick keep um coming 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💎

@@trym2121 I’m looking into getting a 3D printer and just doing some research for a home/hobby model. If I can learn how to print one it would be perfect for me, I can’t buy them from anywhere so it would be nice to print my own. I’d like to have someone 3D print one just to see how they are. Any suggestions on a mid range model would be greatly appreciated 👍

@@leewright6101 well if you don’t know then you don’t and that’s the reason why I did a video of it. If you’re in the uk I can sell you a heating element if you want? Contact me [email protected]

@@nickfox9306 I was well happy I managed to get it going again, I always say I’m not a professional in any way shape or form but to get that satisfaction when something actual works is immense. I’ve never done that level of repair on a robot vac before. I hate all those little plastic connectors around the place though, I did end up breaking one but I did just solder it direct to the circuit board. I have programmed the vac to do a sweep of my house once a day and I gotta say it’s better than the dyson 360 in my opinion. Thanks for watching too Nick, I appreciate it 👍

@@b4c0n88 👍. I’ve got a new camera setup so I may do a better angled version.

@@GraemeBurluraux the fact that the lightening seeds played ‘it’s coming home’ before the match started was a good omen. Surly it’s gotta be at the departure gate back to England 🤞🤞🤞

@@porkchp6369 I am trying to do content which isn't already on KZbin. I've tried to find help in the past on the Dyson hairdryers (for example) but there was very little, if any, videos out there. I am new to this so don't expect high end production 😄

I do have spares for the GHD hairdryers, I can send you one if you’re in the uk. Just pay £5 +postage. Hope that helps.

@mickwild7180 yes that would be brilliant if you could might need a top bearing too if you have one too just got to check

Message me on [email protected]

Also just remove the button for the switch to get to the contacts and see if they are dirty, you can give them a clean with some IPA if they are still dirty use a little sandpaper and gently clean them off. Make sure the Hairdryer is unplugged before doing any work on it though.

Thanks Kevin, I appreciate it. It was the first screen with such a small ribbon cable I’ve ever done. But if you don’t try then you’ll never know is something my dad used to say to me and it’s true. Now I’ve done one I want to do another one so I’ll be doing my faulty one now.

Is the build an parts in that radio of good quality in your opinion?

@@catohals8181 The Roberts range of radios are good quality overall. Spare parts are readily available from Robert's themselves too. I personally think Roberts are one of the best sounding radios in thier price brackets, but that is personal choice I guess. They are one of my best selling radios on my ebay shop along with some model's of John lewis radios.

Stezstix is a funny guy and he’s just in the next town from me so has that northern wit. I do hope he does another one of these, they are straightforward, for me, and if he did another one then he would enjoy doing it, the battle is getting into them.

The reason I do both fuses at the same time is, why I’m actually there doing one, the hassle of actually getting to them in the first place it’s better to just swap them both out as a preventative measure more than anything else. None of the fuses were changed from manufacture and I’m guessing it was around 4-5 years old and don’t know the history of the hairdryer and they do get a lot of stick constantly. If the previous owner had rested the hairdryer down on the ‘hot’ end while switched on then the fuse(s) will blow, maybe one or both, either way it’s a strain on both of them. 👍

The fuse rating is a 185C x 10amp.

Thanks for info!

@@Mickwild562can I use a 184C 10a thermal fuse?

@@adampoplewski1329 yeah that’s the same specs as the original one BUT I’m not condoning you to do any repairs. My video is just for entertainment only and not a repair video to do the same as me. But yeah it’s the same thermal fuse specs as the one I replaced. 👍

🤣 I like that saying. The problem with the Dyson as far as I can see, is they are really really well engineered but they are very much over engineered too. The faults I see the most of over the last 12 months since I started to repair these is 1) blocked filter(s) 2) the cable failing 3) on/off switch sticking 4) Thermal fuse blowing For some reason users don't clean their filters weekly, I see some motors in really bad condition. They are a light, powerful machine BUT they ain't all that really, some design flaws. I'm new to the KZbin content but I am trying to get some better equipment so my videos are a lot more clearer for everyone to watch. Thanks for your message too 👍

I did watch his video and thought I would do a teardown and repair video on the Dyson, there isn't actually that many videos on these. I'm a subscriber to Stezstix and have been for a couple of years now along with MyMateVince too so to have something on their channel that I actually know something about I thought I would take the plunge and make a how to video. It did pain me to watch Steve struggle with it and I know he thought they were a nightmare to work on, but they are only easy If you know how to do it In the first place.

Thanks for your comment 👍. Not the best video quality but it gives people an idea of the work involved.

Your welcome, I know there isnt many videos about the DYSON range, I've been repairing them for the last year and learnt the hard way. I just want to try and help other people who have a similar issue.👍

Thanks, I think I make it look like a long process of doing it but it only takes me around 30 Mins to complete normally.
