Samsung Powerbot Robot Vacuum Cleaner a Complete Teardown

[@SRSnure]

Perfect timing. Just this morning my Samsung r7070 began throwing C01 errors. I cleaned the entire outside of the vacuum including the roller assembly, but the error remains. I plan to take it apart to see if there's any dirt accumulation causing the error. Now I know how to get inside of this thing! :-)

[@davidyowell5992]

My unit kept giving me the dreaded C-01 Error with nothing stuck in the actual roller. This video walked me through 99% of what i needed but I was looking to take out the brush roll motor. You stopped just shy of that, i was nervous but it just popped right out. I needed to get in there to clean it out and readjust the belt. The thing was full of dirt and small fibers. Once i cleaned it apart and out it back together worked good as new.

Awesome to hear so glad I could help

[@antonkestila1801]

I've this problem too was yours making a horrible noise when the brush did spin?

[@gregjensen7963]

I unplugged the battery and let it reset. I pluged it back in and it works fine now. No tear down necessary

[@SiegfriedGlina]

Thanks. Mine was sticking on the suction rubber.... Weird really. The rubber kinda rotted. Anyway you gave me confidence to just pull harder! Fixed mine as I have a second for spare parts...

[@valeriesmith8862]

Is that the brush motor in the front? Do they have belts? My brush stopped moving, I love it, bought a Shark to hold me over until Sammy is better. Hopefully I'll have 2 working bots when I'm done: ), thanks for the video and help!

[@toms6193]

let me know where to get the belt . i cant find one . mine needs a belt.

[@sstakk]

@@toms6193 Do you found the belt? I can't find too

[@anurav9434]

@Smitty's World... Thanks for the video. The brush roll is not spinning on my powerbot. I did a complete tear down, everything looks good.. Any ideas?

[@SmittysWorld]

Could be the belt or gear inside the drive motor

[@susananncarpenter4872]

I'd like to know how to disassemble a samsung jetbot to gain access the wheel assembly as one of them has stopped working properly

[@meowme7644]

nice vids! vr7000 brush stops to spin after 30 sec. but the robot doesnt stop. do you know whats going on with my robot? the belt, motor, bearings are "ok".

[@SmittysWorld]

sounds like something on the motherboard is getting hot and shutting down the voltage output to the motor.

[@meowme7644]

@@SmittysWorld thanks 4 this superfast reply..I thought that too, but around the "Drum" connector on the 2nd board there are only 2 tiny transistors. voltage should come from the Mainboard... and then, probably when you already answered, I found it. I had changed the orientation of the brush motor cause of damaged bearing, switched the polarity (outer wires), and me or vibrations must have loosen the encoderdisk on the back shaft. 😱🐸 so pulled the disk closer back on....and whuuups ->runs 🏃‍♂️ The encoder signal is there and the brush won't switch off now. thank you so much, RobotGawd! It must have been ur karma greetz from Bavaria 🥨🍺 ps: but now after being disassembled for months, I don't find the screws right now 😊😅

[@fritzwhittemore8124]

Is it possible to remove the control board and other wires from the cover? I need to replace the cover on mine because the dust bin won't stay locked in due to a crack in the cover. I can purchase a new cover and it seems easy enough to replace assuming I can remove the necessary components from the old cover without breaking anything.

[@SmittysWorld]

Yes it’s just a little time consuming and be careful the clips like to break

[@fritzwhittemore8124]

@@SmittysWorld Thank you! :) Are you aware of a video that shows those items being removed/replaced? I can't seem to find one anywhere.

[@SmittysWorld]

@@fritzwhittemore8124 no unfortunately not a lot of videos on these robots since they are not super popular if I still had one I’d made a video just don’t have one to tear apart

[@johnandjacquestanley9575]

Would have liked to see more information on the brush motor. My vacuum is making a screechy sound and most google results refer back to it.Good to see tear down. Thanks

[@SmittysWorld]

Ok I’ll work on some more content mine was from the bearing on the brush roller check yours

[@johnandjacquestanley9575]

@@SmittysWorld can you elaborate on that a little more? Thanks and thanks for the fast reply.

Hi, i have a problem with vr7000 It charge infinitely and when I touch play It doesn't start, do you have some idea, it's the motherboard? Thanks a lot!!

[@timhelmle8377]

Open up a samsung jet bot ai, it has low suction. All the filers are clean but I don’t know how to check the actual blower wheels.

[@coolprojects5297]

Thank you ,, i want to know what color pin-out of it's battery ?

[@SmittysWorld]

What model?

[@kumaraswamynandipati9580]

Mine is R7065 acts like dead. When I place it on dock and press start button, it sounds and after that no display and nothing. Any idea what's wrong?

[@SmittysWorld]

Could be a completely dead battery or damaged motherboard

[@Claudioccdr]

Hi!! The rotor from the brush make a terrible sound, it doesn’t spin on its own if I do it with the finger it spin but not with strong, i think it maybe be damage ? Or ware down, do you have any idea what I could do. I can send you a vid so you can check it out

[@alaskankleekais7264]

Front bumper sensor ail is stuck.

[@generalsekretar2663]

Have you an idea how to fix the c04 error? There a no visuable reason for this error....

[@aidandoesstuff8872]

I regret buying a r7040 they are bad

[@SmittysWorld]

They are great at cleaning the carpet when not having issues but man the issues are terrible on these.

[@aidandoesstuff8872]

Mine barely does any thing

[@anurav9434]

Mine one did great job for almost 2 years.. Quite good on carpets. Now the brush doesn't spin at all. I have cleaned it up. replaced a the brush roller but still no luck :(
