Dyson DC41 maintenance and troubleshooting

[@akamaiward669]

Dyson should license this video! By far the best and most useful 5.47 minutes on Dyson dc41 I found. Thanks!

[@barbgourley4689]

You rock! Got the suction back in the hose in a few minutes. Thank you for the easy descriptions to access the different parts of the vacuum.

[@spenziner]

Thank you! My issue was that I was not getting any suction through the base (plenty through the wand). After going through Dyson's site and following all of their videos, I was not being able to resolve the issue. I watched yours and followed your step to disconnect the want hose from the base and found a pen that got stuck in there! I removed that and now it's working great :) Thanks again!

[@scottcampbell6050]

This video was great (we never knew there was the round filter on the side), but this comment also helped because it made me look in that hose and found half a children's glow stick that was preventing the spinning base from sucking.

[@elizabethmcgaha4460]

Thanks for this video, I think even with trouble shooting with Dyson customer service they fail to tell you about the way the hose comes completely off and apart and because of you I found the clog. Your video really is a goody...thanks again!

[@sachinkulkarni9058]

Thanks a lot for your help. My issue was that a small wooden piece was stuck in the wand. This had stopped the motor to work in the upright position. After watching your video, I removed the wand, cleaned it. The Vacuum is working properly. Many thanks for your help.

[@allysonstrobel2758]

Thannnnnkkkk yoooouuuuu! You saved me $75 from having to take it to the repair service again. Did not have the dyson 41 4 months and the hose sucked a kleenex and I tinkered and tinkered with no luck, wish I had enough smarts to see if anyone knew how to fix, dreaded to pay another $75 and there you were!! Learned gobs from you! Thanks for saving me money on future clogs, my old dyson never clogged up like this, they have gone downhill I am sorry to say. Keep the videos coming!

[@BradBisinger]

One thing to add is to check the small hose that wraps around the bottom of the ball... it's only a few inches, but I had a massive blockage in there that was causing me issues. Thanks!

[@Iw2kwwjd]

This was so helpful. I could not figure out how to get the bottom hose off. I couldn't push the hoses back together and low and behold there was something in the bottom part which wasn't allowing me to click them together. Thank you!

[@ericnorrington3014]

Thanks so much for this video. My girlfriend is super happy because I was able to fix the vacuum and find part her glasses stuck in the hose. You rock vacuum god!

[@NorthAlabamaPC]

Thanks helped me find the clogs in the door just under the bin and in the hose in the ball, now back to cleaning. By the way mine is a DC40 but as for the filters and access locations they are the same. You might want to change the title to "Dyson DC40 & DC41 maintenance and troubleshooting" so more DC40 users can find your helpful video.

[@ShemRoose]

Thanks for posting this. I thought I had gone through every piece of the vacuum, but when I went back through and removed the wand from the hose I found the problem.

[@mauriceq23]

Thank you for making this video. I almost followed another videos directions to open the cyclone compartment, that repair had a risk of damaging the vacuum. It turns out I had a piece of plastic stuck at the base of the extension hose, I found it thanks to your video. Good job man.

[@smobsessed]

Thank you! Your videos are great and they helped me fix my Dyson. There was something blocked in the suction tube. Very easy to follow! Keep up the great work! Dyson should hire you to make their videos and manage their KZbin channel!

[@GeekinZombie]

I know this video is a few years old but it really helped!! I wasn't sure why the floor rollers/suction wasn't working and at 5:00, your video was perfect for my situation! Took off the tubing and bam, part of a pen was lodged in there. Thanks so much!!

[@Lujal859]

I always find myself on your channel based off of some article Im reading and I watch the video linked and then I just keep watching more and more videos you make because A. I used to LOVE vacuums B. You are very knowledgeable about vacuums and C. You are adorable.

[@dreadre5351]

This totally helped me to fix my dyson. Thank you so very much! Thanks to you showing how to take the hose off I was able to unclog and not it's working perfectly. Whew....after paying 500.00. Dyson truly needs to hire you.

[@adrianthomas4163]

Was totally going to dismiss this video until you taking off the wand and hose in the back. Turns out that's where the falut for my Dyson was. Thanks for the vid man. You rock!

[@Tschennnnie]

Thank you so much! That fixed 'er! I had no idea that I could take the vacuum apart in so many places. Dyson did a great job of designing the vacuum, but they should have hired you to write the instructions! (I don't think I even got instructions with it...)

[@blancanperez]

Thanks to this video, I was able to find the problem with the suction problem by removing the hose from the base and taking a pen out that was stuck there. My Dyson is working fine again. :)

[@63martu]

Thank you - you solved my problem at 5:01 in your video. An icy pole stick was stuck in the hose stopping the wheels from fully engaging which meant no suction. Followed your instructions and instant fix!! Well Done!

[@Vacbin]

Pauline Turnbull Glad to have helped!

[@MyelitaMelton]

Thank you so much! I don't think I could have fixed my Dyson without your video!

[@ds99]

This is excellent. Thank you for taking the time to demo this. It's very helpful and appreciated.

[@ellensweat5251]

Thanks so much. I fixed the problem. There was a clog in the rigid detachable part of the hose. Took the time to also clean the filters as I am not sure when I did it last. All back together and runs like it should.

[@auditeves]

Thank you very much! The wand was jammed full of random stuff. You're a lifesaver mate!

[@jimtom8951]

Great video. Just what I needed to unclog my hose. Like others have said, I had no idea it was that easy to remove the hose, and the instructions don't tell you how to do it. thanks buddy!

[@amitsorek5947]

Very useful - thank you! You helped my find the source of a blockage (in the carpet beater) - had no idea it could open!

[@jacobdavydov6374]

Great video! I had a pen stuck at the bottom of the hose near the ball which prevented the vacuum from folding down. Thanks!

[@susanmargeson7420]

Thank you for your video. It was by far more educational and helpful than any of previous videos I watch. Great video. concur with many of the comments. The young man did an excellent job.

[@godisallaroundus]

I just used your video for the second time. It worked wonderfully again! Thank you so much I appreciate what you do.

[@Frydae83]

Ah! Legend! I could see the blockage at the bottom of the hose, and didn't know how to get the hose off! I thought we were screwed! Thank you!

[@gabrielmusquiz2469]

Thanks for this! There was a clog in the hose that I couldn't figure out and I finally got it all fixed up

[@brianjohannaj]

Thank you!!! Because of your video I was able to clean my vacuum and get it to working again. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge!

[@MrDCBallin]

Thanks VERY MUCH young man ! I'm sure that u put this video up and noone prolly thanx u for all your hard work - but I'm here to tell u that u personally saved me hundreds of dollars that i can't afford on a new vac - ty soooo much buddy

[@Blur125]

Had a huge wad of crud stuck in my hose, thanks for the excellent how to! Fixed my issue

[@laurajbay]

Thank you! I was able to clear out my hose with your help! I didn't realize the whole thing came off.

[@fyeahkarina]

Thanks a lot VacBin! your video is much more helpul than the Dyson mute videos. There was a blockage inside the hose, a pen was stuck, and when I looked at the Dyson manual, I could not figure out how to detach the hose, your video was so clear. Keep up the good work.

[@margiereyer]

I learn more for this how to video than I did from the last five! Great video and the young man did and excellent job. Wonder if he is actually the developer. Thanks for a great video,

[@rachelmweis4335]

Great video! Thanks for helping me unclog my vacuum. I didn't realize it was that easy to pull the hose off.

[@janiceakesbi4882]

Thank you! I was able to unclog a mass of Christmas tree needles from my dyson!

[@awhite0424]

Thank you so much for taking the time to post this! Like a previous poster, I just pulled a pencil out from the lower hose area and --problem solved! I didn't know how to get the base of the hose off either. Awesome and helpful video!

[@kunwee4844]

Thank you! I was able to clear a hose blockage from watching your video.

[@vwinneke1]

Thank you! Your video was incredibly helpful and help me figure out how to get hose off and find blockage.

[@armeniaca85]

i m commenting again, cause this indeed is the best video that helped me to fix my clogged dyson, thanks a lot again!

[@JohnResciniti]

Opening up the dust bin beyond just cleaning the filter is one more thing to check. Many times large hair clumps from my dog get stuck at the top of the bin and you have to push them out from the top. Also, removing the brush bar is easy, and often times clogs can form right behind that where the tube begins.

[@smozzybear]

Thanks for this! It just helped me fix my vacuum after it having some mystery ailment (a clog I couldn't locate, it turns out) for weeks!

[@Promitomeus1]

Thanks kid!!! I just pulled a pencil fragment from the bottom of the hose. It works again.

[@scottmelick7905]

Very helpful.....thank you. I was able to get my vac up and running with your help. Great video

[@lizaadkison5121]

excellent video, even this old geezer could follow and understand...thank you

[@stefanielysz-britton474]

Thank you! I fixed my vacuum using your tutorial. Much appreciated!

[@nigeldaly1693]

Well done. Amazing explanations and save me a trip to the shops and worse still hunting down the damn receipt. Thank you!!

[@Riker626]

Thanks Had a "total" loss of suction, removed many pieces one by one, no clogs, and tested after each item removal. But after removing the last hose that I didn't know how to until this video it suddenly started working, but again no clog. Best guess is a pebble got in the motor and seized it, the process of removing stuff must have jarred the pebble loose and things suddenly started working again. But what ever the case, thank you.

[@pambenington9613]

THANK YOU!! I was able to troubleshoot my Dyson because of this video!!

[@joeschuetz4571]

Thanks for the video! I fixed my clogged vacuum thanks to you!!!!

[@dellboyaust]

That was excellent!! Thankyou so much for that , I couldn't believe how much stuff was stuck in there!!

[@emilylovescats2680]

Thanks for helping us fix our Dyson!

[@yanmcrae6106]

Mine was overheating and turning off. I didn't even know about the large filter near the base. Cleaned it out and drying now, hopefully will run smoothly for here on out.

[@yanmcrae6106]

lol, then I checked the plastic wand and...piece of glass stuck in there which then slowly accumulated dog hair on it and clogged the whole thing off. I'm glad I watched the full video.

[@user-ju6ie5qg3n]

Excellent demo, saved us over $120 in service fees. A bit hard to hear when you're away from the mic.

[@aidensmultiverse8446]

Your video helped me fix my problem. Thank you!

[@DeirdreMc]

Great video, I found the clog and also strings wrapped around the brush!

[@chetbarney6635]

Awesome. Helped me find a clog that I couldn't find before. Also, I didn't know this thing had two filters on it...isn't that one of Dyson's marketing campaigns, they don't have filters, thus more sucking power?

[@bettynewberry1]

Very informative video with easy to follow, well explained procedures. Your good at teaching. How did you learn so much about dyson's?

[@sammeyers3681]

Thanks! I was able to fix the problem after watching your video. Great job!

[@haroldwilliams9648]

Thanks for the video, i was at a standstill!, Helped me out a lot with the no suction T/S. Keep up the good work

[@lilwhisprs]

You Rock thanks for helping us all Fixed my problem and saved me a call and I got to finish cleaning

[@winebratt]

Thank you so much! You totally saved the day. Very informative and super easy to follow. Good job!

[@eaforeman5]

Thank you, answered my questions and solved my problem! Excellent!

[@bubbalicious797]

There's also a little screw in a red piece in the back bottom. We had a clog the size of a mouse in there and it fixed the vacuum.

[@malloryjuntunen]

Thank you for those tips! I had no idea it could be that easy!

[@melsue123]

Thanks so much! You saved me the unnecessary expense of a repair.

[@simonejayderai]

Pretty kool that this is some young kid doing the vacuuming

[@MrBriar4343]

Hey dude, thank you so much for the great video. I watched about 3 or 4 other videos before yours and had no luck with good advice on trouble shooting. Your video saved me from a possible suicide. We now have suction... 😂

[@henrysimpson7144]

thanks for the video:) our Dyson works like a new one again...

[@urkiddingme6254]

Well done video. I did not know about the filter in the ball. Too bad for me that you skipped the one part I'm having trouble with -- disengaging that red plastic piece that holds the floor brush onto the upright portion. I have a clog in there that I cannot access from the floor brush opening. I'm guessing you skipped that part because it is SO DANG DIFFICULT to remove that stupid piece of plastic with hooks so tiny they give you no grip at all. I notice you started to remove it, then decided to just move on with the rest of the removable parts. I haven't figured out how to do it yet. Certainly not with just human hands. Darn it Dyson. I've owned 4 different models of yours, and It's always somethin' with you.

[@lauraneubecker5132]

Loved your video, fixed my problem! Thank you!!

[@tomendicott6846]

Very helpful except I could not get my hose button to release. However I found the blockage in the wand. Thank you!

[@bigdaddy92216]

Thanks!!! That spot behind the canister was it!!!

[@allweatherwalkies]

thanks I was hoping it would be the same as the dc40 and havn't actually got the hoover out the cupboard yet to look at it.

[@scottbarnard2420]

Thanks, and that was informative. My issue is that it will stop running? Someone said it is overheated but that is not the case. I've done our whole house before and it didn't stop? Appreciate your time!

[@trlalli92]

Your videos are the reason I got this cleaner. I love it. So thank you! Got it for like $220 factory refurbished. Quick question though, how do you keep the plastic canister so clean? Can you just rinse it out and let dry while the filter is out? Thanks again!

Thank you very much that was an awesome video and you resolve my issues

[@scottbailey3066]

Thanks. Turns out a quarter is the perfect size to clog the wand.

[@chadweddle9191]

thanks man found a clog in the hose! great video

[@armeniaca85]

the best ever informative video, thanks a lot!!!!

[@julesell9788]

Very helpful!! You helped me solve my problem at 4:22! 😄

This was very helpful. Thanks!

[@axelknight5604]

thank you this helped me soooo much great job.

[@Vacbin]

You're welcome!

[@michaelghezzi3918]

Nice, I found the clog whe I took the brush head off. Thanks!

[@profrrm]

Hey Kid. Now your older I bet!! You just saved me loads of cash. I had a jam from one of those slippery circles found under the screw lid of milk bottles that was stuck between the main ball and the brush bar. Once the red clips were removed and my finger checked ... I pulled out loads of stuff behind the circle thingy that blocked it.

[@fayfisher9978]

THANKS GOING TO TRY FIXING THE HOSE CLOG!

[@gigigratz8855]

Awesome!!! Thank you. Keep up the good work!

[@shirleyjacobsen4142]

Love your video since the instruction booklet which comes w/the machine is not very clear!! My problem is......... when I take off the canister and check the filter, I always have trouble getting the canister to "click" back firmly to the base. I think it is attached but then when I lean the vacuum back as if to vacuum the floor ........ the canister pops off!! Any suggestions??

[@Chino2469]

Hey very helpfull info I work at a vacuum store and I do a lot off dysons warranties and to b honest if u can get another vacuum do so cause there's only so much dyson warrenties I prefer a Miele or Panasonic

[@maryg4484]

thank you - I would also add, if your hose is not working, check all the attachments for blockages too, not just the hose itself - found a bit of toast stuck in mine! yuk.
