For me it was the LID....AHAHAHAHA. Im pretty tech savy and understand what parts need to function in order for units to work. I deep cleaned everything...I even unscrewed the whole unit and took the whole internal suction tube out. put a new bag in, changed the filter everything, i knew for sure it wasnt anything to do with dirt. I decided to seek youtube help and found this video, the first thing I noticed you do is lift the lid up and it stays up....I was like wait my whole lid just comes straight off, realigned it how you had it up and gave it a good push and boom it snapped into place and stands up straight like yours when the lid is lifted. Gave it a go and boooooom were back in buisness. Lol It wasnt intended but thanks for the video!

Thank you so much for a great video, clear and thorough.

Green valve won't come out. Yes, I removed the screw. ??

I followed step by step. Seems the error was fixed. Thank you. Great video.

Thank you soo much for this video. It helped me easily replace the latch

This is crazy. This works. Thank you sir

Unbelievable. But it really works.

Thank you so much for this video! I just ordered my first Roomba and I’m definitely going to be referencing this video a lot! I hope I don’t regret my purchase… This seems like a whole lot of maintenance, which I’ve never had to do for a regular vacuum, lol! Being visually impaired, it’s probably gonna take me as long to do this as it does to do my regular vacuuming with the canister vacuum, lol! Seriously though, how often do you do this maintenance like this? Once a month? Once every few months?

Thank you so much ...worked a treat after unit was laying dormant for three months because I had no idea where the 'filters' or 'drainage' systems were and had no intention of removing the bottom panels...far to much monkey business...but a simple fix and a little knowledge goes a long way.

Great step by step cleaning video. I'm assuming the "deodorizing" crystals are really just scented crystals, right? To me "Deodorizing" would man removing odor, not replacing or covering it it. Not being snarky, just to my nose those fake scents are more disruptive than the odor they're covering. But you've got me wondering about creating some kind of permeable "Baking Soda straw to stick in there. Someone needs to run with that idea. I'd pay a couple bucks a piece for them.

Thank you soo much!! This totally fixed this error I have had since shortly after purchase. I didn’t have any white tape but I cut small pieces off of the command hook tape part. Even though it is sticky on both sides, it still worked.

Perfect - thank you!

Deu muito certo! Aqui em pouco mais de 1 min estava espirrando novamente!

Problem solved ! Thanks !

is that a large paint brush in the video?

Mine just keeps saying bag is full, even when theres a brand new one there

Thank you so much, easy and quick solution and it worked perfectly for me!

👍👍👍. Thanks!

I really wanted this to work 😔 literally used it twice but not for a year and now it doesn’t spray. Had it running for 20 mins now with the warm water and no signs of life

P.S., my problem was alot of dust accumulated under the bag at the bottom of the compartment. I changed out the bag and also vacuumed out the dust...that did the trick! Thanks, again. I didn't find any cattoys, though...we have a Jack Russell so tennis balls would be our problem. Ha!

Thanks for the chuckles and help!

EASIEST FIX FOR EMPTY BIN PROMT NOT WORKING!!! We suffered the empty bin mode not working. It would disappear from the app dashboard when you pressed it and not reappear until later.we spoke to customer service and I did everything suggested for the j6. Rebooting, blowing out the dust behind the bumper, removing the vac tube under the tower, making sure there were no blockages, blah blah blah blah . . . Nothing worked until i did a factory reset from the app and saved the map option. The empty bin worked perfectly. It will also force update the software. They never suggested it. Dumb asses.

I recently bought a used Braava Jet m6, and the robot does not respond. When I put the robot on the home base charging dock, for a few seconds, it lights up white and spins, and then it stops. When I press the "Clean" button, the robot doesn't respond. The same for all the other buttons. The wheels are not jammed and I already tried holding Clean for 30 seconds. It came with 2 batteries but they don't seem to work. The robot gets a little warm on the place where the cleaning pads are mounted when charging. What do you think is the problem? Do you repair m6's? And if so, what would you estimate the repair cost for this to be?

Ohmigosh, THANK YOU so very much for creating this video! That was exactly the problem we were having. Your solution fixed it!

I've got the same unit, went through the same steps but no success. The roomba did a cleaning round after I'd mopped the floors, I thought it was done but it was just recharging before continuing. When I got back the Clean Base was standing in a puddle of water and more was seeping through the side vent exhaust. I took everything apart and removed the water with a shopvac as best I could. When the Roomba completes a cleaning round, and unloads at the Cleanbase, it'll still attempt to empty the bin, three times before switching to a red signal on both units. The error in the app says there's a clog but there really isn't one. The motor sounds a bit different too, I'm worried it's FUBAR.

Thank you so much, I think I saved a lot of time, it perfectly worked! 😅

Thanks a lot the explanation. I almost threw away this piece of thrash

Great preventative maintenance video. Very helpful. I'm having trouble with the vacuum not emptying the bin. Any suggestions. I watched a video on the i7 but it doesn't have the same screws. So you can't take it apart to clean the sensors. Do you have any ideas or suggestions.

Thank you! Worked perfectly on the washable pad that came with machine which I’ve been struggling with. Used it many times since purchased then after 6 months it stopped connecting. I even bought washable ones on Amazon that I couldn’t get to work. And figured they weren’t authentic and that’s why wouldn’t work. So bought expensive ones from iRobot. Now I think this will work for my Amazon ones since it worked with the pad that came with my machine. This machine is so frustrating to say the least!

Awesome thanks, I did 45 sec for 1 cup of water, and this fixed min in about 1.5 min.

100% the problem. Been dealing with this for a long time. Thx for the fix!!!

Thank you! Using this deep cleaning video, I was able to get my Roomba to finish the job in an hour and a half again. It was taking eight hours and then telling me it couldn't finish. Thank you so much!!!

Cats….

Who would have thought Common Sense would have solved this sticky problem thank you

A brilliant video! Thank you so much! Good videography; clear and concise diction. I had to sift through a LOT of videos in my quest to find a meaningful one that would help with my problem. I even needed to know how to remove the green rubber guard from the port on the removable bin. I see now that a little bit of gentle forcing is required. Thank you too for the tip about moisture (a little too late for me though). When setting up my Roomba I did not set a no go zone area for where my cat water bowls are. After i noticed that my Roomba was not performing properly, I removed the two green rollers only to discover a whole lot of dirt caked onto the sides of the Roomba behind the rollers. And finally - I loved the bit of humour you added to your video 😸

This did it for me! I had it in storage for a couple of years and I took it out today. It didn’t spray in the beginning, but after 10 minutes and with your help, it was back to normal. Liked the video !

Thank you very much, I tried it and it worked🫶

This is hugely helpful! I just got a new j7, want to take care of it so it works properly.

Wow! Genius. Worked like a charm

Thanks so much, great help👍

Just happened to my M6. I barely had it for 3 months, (though I did get it used) and I'm going to try fixing it now with this method. Despite this flaw, I am still hopeful that the M6 is a great product as it cleans my floors very well, even without cleaning solution and just with water. I will reply to this comment if I was able to fix it! Ty for the info.

Thanks so much!!! Mine could not leave the base and the wheels seemed to be slipery. I tried even new wheels and did not work. I cleaned again all the mechanisms like in your video and found hair rolled in the black cap. Finished cleaning it and everything went back to normal. Thanks thanks thanks!

Great video Going to do ours today. Our J7 is not emptying by itself. Later today I cleaned it (wow a lot of junk) What I found the orange valve flap was not seated correctly. Thank you for the detailed explanation . 👍🏼👍🏼😎

Every other video on KZbin I saw said to dismantle the m6 and because of that I procrastinated the job for so long. Saw this video and 5 minutes later my m6 was working perfectly again. Thank you soooooo much!

Thanks for making this video, this fixed my braava!

Great video, thank you! So frustrating that iRobot won’t repair my Braava and asked me to buy a new one because I’m out of warranty. I cleaned the wheels but unfortunately it didn’t help. Any other suggestions? Tried cleaning the sensors, factory reset, etc. I did notice that one of the wheels is a bit harder to turn than the other one

Worked like a charm. Thank you ❤

Great advice and a nice step-by-step way to clean the s9.

Thank you
