What a life saver you are! No telling how much money you saved me by this video. I have a Dyson V15 Detect that isn't that old (just days out of warranty ha-ha), and the gaskets just fell into the trash when I was emptying the bin. Since I have 5 dogs and 1 cat, I use the vacuum at least once every day (most days 2 or 3 times). By watching and listening to you video 3 times, I think I can now fix the vacuum without having to call Dyson and buy new parts. I'm a 72 year old widow who does what she has to do to keep things up and running. I am thankful for your help.

[@richardsvacuumcenter]

Very glad to be of help to you ma’am!

[@winstonbenedict3525]

This really helped me a lot. I don't have a lot of money and I was just about to take the vacuum to the repair shop. The video was straight to the point, clear detail and nothing unnecessary.

[@mrscloude7434]

Perfect-o! Video is well put together and doesn't waste time with a lot of random, unrelated info. Like others, while emptying the dust bin the red squeegee-gasket and plastic ring fell into the garbage can. Thanks to your video I'm back in business sucking up hair and crumbs. I'm a 65+ technical writer and your instructions are spot on. Thanks for saving me time and money!

[@chuckf4333]

Me too !!!😄😄😄

[@bucklansford8762]

Thanks! This probably saved me from cracking the clear plastic by forcing it! Wish I’d found this before buying the new seal lid!

[@jake-mv5oi]

The one time I empty out my wife's V11, the ring and seal go in the trash. Glad to know I'm not the only one, but disappointed in dyson quality. Thanks for the pointers.

[@malissabennett102]

Thank you! I've been fighting w this stupid thing for 45 min. Thinking I knew what I was doing. Got it fixed thanks to ur video, much appreciated.

[@halfpiint]

OMG! I DID IT!!!! Thank you so much! Ironically, I just ordered a replacement bin this afternoon but ,since I've succeeded in fixing it, following your instructions, I'll send the new bin back soon as it arrives. Miracles do happen. The next time something goes wrong, and I'm sure it will, I'll revisit your channel. God Bless You!

[@keithws]

It's amazing how many of these things that look like they are fool proof get broken by various members of the family. I didn't dislodge mine, but I thank you very much for your great, very instructional video on how to fix this problem. I don't know if I would have been able to do this without your help, without breaking or destroying the seal or the vacuum cleaner container. A great deal of thanks from someone in Australia!

[@c.l3676]

I had the exact same problem happened today and was searching for a helpful video to restore my Dyson vacuum on KZbin. Came across this one and you are a lifesaver, thank you.

[@richardsvacuumcenter]

☺️

[@zippitydoodah5693]

You're really good at this, Richard. Clear. Concise. Succinct. No jibber-jabber. No fluff. No drama. Wish other teachers I have had over the years were half as good as you. Thank you so much!

[@richardsvacuumcenter]

Very kind of you to say this! Thank you! That’s very encouraging to me! And it affirms my aim for the channel. Clarity, usefulness, not wasting anyone’s time, and not trying to make videos unnecessarily long purely to boost ads.

[@LM-ov9bj]

Thank you for focusing on the seal of the canister! I looked at so many videos and finally found yours. I needed help reassembling. I hadn’t noticed the tiny notches/grooves on red seal that must go in just right on the canister!

[@patfromLI]

Huge appreciation! My Dyson was on the fritz, and thanks to your repair video, my husband became a total hero and fixed it himself! Saved us a trip to Dyson repair.

[@chuckf4333]

Thank You !!! 6 minutes with a few pauses and I'm done !!! Excellent instruction and production gets right to the point. You can fix just about anything by watching a great instructor take you through the process. Love KZbin !!!

[@relict04]

Very true.

[@nikkigeorge9432]

Wow. I came across your most amazing tutorial for this exact same problem. If I didn't find this, I'd likely be buying a new Dyson. Now I can keep mine a lil longer. Thank you so very much for such clear, thorough information. You're awesome!

[@teresacuming3969]

Yay! Mine has been separated for the past couple months and I wasn't sure how it went back together. I just glued it and reassembled it and so far so good! Forced me to clean it inside too so now it looks like a new vacuum again. Didn't have that small a screw driver for the screw but a kitchen knife worked.

[@Ulson603]

Thank you sm for the video!! These exact pieces fell off while cleaning the bin or putting back to the body and I had no idea where to put back. Emailed Dyson support but they ask me the serial number, purchase date, etc (although I am already in their system) , email went back and forth.. never get the answer.. This video is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a bunch!!!

[@olelopaaogawa8215]

Aloha Richards, After following your detailed video, I was able to put my dust bin together again! I did not have the tool Torx T-8 so I used a plier to take of that tiny screw. I feel good about myself after successfully fixing this bin! Thank you for your expertise!

[@peterdurand3098]

Thank you so much. This saved me a lot of money and frustration. I had gotten to the stage of removing the screw but could not pull it out of the bin. The rest of the video was truly valuable.

[@mikepicheca4173]

Great video. Thanks. You helped me fix mine as it fell off when I tried to empty the dust bin. Clipping the cover over the red rubber piece is tricky even when you line it up.

[@jonathancleck]

Super helpful! Thank you! We did have a slightly harder time reassembling the “grey cap ring” onto the red squeegee than you appeared to have, but with a little squeezing we got it to sit in there (before the glue set!). Thanks again!

[@A_XU_S]

@richardsvacuumcenter I'm stuck as this exact spot, I'm almost putting all my force trying to get the grey ring on top of the red rubber, but, it refuses to go on...help!

[@brianlaurenwald7347]

Worked like a champ!

[@paulynranjit5241]

This same issue happened to me just now. Your clear instructions in this video was so helpful for me to fix it. A bouquet of thanks to you!

[@jimbujold5586]

Perfect! The smaller plastic ring cracked during emptying event. Nice to know the purpose of the squeegee and that it can be glued!

[@jael-a6911]

4:39 THANK U SO MUCH!! You're a God Send! YOU speak my language! An easy to follow, 'common sense' approach opposed to watching "Dancing Hands". I didn't glue but will now. My 1st thought was, "how'm I goin' 2 clean it?" When the ring 'popped off' as soon as I put it bk together, I thought, "Oh, 👍! NOW I get it!" Just a side note (cld just b my V11): w/the ring, red rubber gasket & metal ring plate, the notches are ALL slightly off. I have to CAREFULLY align ALL three @ th same time. If not, there's little to no 'snapping'/locking happening. You're going to be my 'GO TO GUY' from now on!! Thnx 4 all you do! Jil

[@jkanclark]

Like honestly I don’t know if I’d have ever figured out how to put this back together. Thanks sir!

[@sherrischeckel2522]

Thank you so much! Many of the other videos did not show you how to get the canister off. I had already ordered my part, but this was an excellent video to watch if you did not have the part on hand. Thank you again; it was very clear step-by-step instructions,

[@murderbeanstv6732]

This has helped me so much! I was able to get it on, but every time I put the bin back on, the black rubber seal kept pulling it back off. I’m glad that it doesn’t need it because I gave up 😂

[@JeriNavitsky-re6js]

This was awesome. What an easy fix for myself and no expense repair at the vacuum shop. Thank you

[@lleongyy]

I'm so happy to have come across your channel. Thank you so much for sharing this fix! Indeed you are a life saver 🤩

[@jmd1327]

Man, that was awesome!!! Very clear verbal descriptions and detailed visuals made this instructional video “Awesome” 👍👏🌟. Thank you very much.

[@dougarmstrong223]

Hey Richard, man I really love your videos. They are excellent! Showing how to deal with a sick Dyson stick. Keep up the good work; we need your videos since Dyson doesn't have any Customer Service in Canada.

[@MartinPiper6502]

Same problem happened with mine, but two of the clips had cracked which loosened the retaining ring enough for it to separate the red seal. I also superglued it all together after that.

[@Enchantica1961]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I (wrongly) assumed that the part that had become detached was vital to my v12 and very nearly ordered a new Dyson. I'm so pleased I decided to look for a home repair solution. I did try using my machine without the squeegy bit but it wasn't too convenient having to clean it frequently so I fixed it as per your instructions. Bingo! Good quality glue cost me about £5. Far cheaper than a new machine.

[@JulieRuth439]

Thanks for your video, very helpful! I didn’t have super glue so I used a small piece of electrical tape either side to help secure it and then put it back together. It works well.

[@North-Power]

Such a great help with a very detailed step-by-step tutorial. Thank you so much!

[@karipalmer987]

This worked great!!! All the other videos I watched said you just have to buy a new seal and that Dyson is always out of stock. I did order a back-up one on Amazon for $8 incase this didn't work. But I am so glad it did work if you already have a T8 screw driver. I love the idea of super glueing the rings together to help them stay together. Thank you!!!

[@MungYin]

Thanks a lot!!! I was checking about the instruction book, but can’t find any information about inside part. Until I reached your video and got to fix my Dyson V11🥰

[@mytvbs4865]

outstanding. I've battled with trying to figure out where this connect back in and how. Dyson support site just tells you to buy a new plastic bin, of course.

[@GracePharmD]

This was great! Super helpful. Very clear instructions and easy to follow. Thank you.

[@anskul844]

Thank you so much! It has been so frustrating to try to put that seal back on. Didn't even know it was broken. Good video👌

[@natalieatkinsprincessnatki1553]

thank you so much for this video... I followed along, I also needed glue and now my Dyson works perfectly again!!!

[@JamesMajors-u1y]

Thank you so much for this video. I thought I was going to have to write this V11 Dyson off. I followed your instructions and the repair worked fantastic!

[@Farcamp1]

Yay! Thanks! I’ve had previous Dyson vacuums with no problems at all; seems it’s only the new ones that to break up…ahhhh the joys of modern manufacturing!

[@richardsvacuumcenter]

🤣

[@josemariaquirogaruiz416]

Really helpful. I had the same problem no knowing what to do until I saw your video. That piece is not sold so if you can fix it you have tu buy the entire can. Tank's a lot from Spain.

[@m095076]

Thanks for posting. Cleaned out the van (you know how that goes with small children) and the gaskets came undone… Glue was a nice touch, and it’s good as new again.

[@yuliyalevina1986]

Thank you, I can’t believe there is a video how to fix exactly what happened to my dyson! Priceless.. ☺️

[@win1mc278]

Thank you so much for the video. This has been a problem with my V11 Torque and I have fixed the rings twice now. I did not know that I could still get full ability to operate the vacuum without them attached so that helps for next time when I don't have the time to play the ring game! You make it look so easy so I will try the glue trick as well and hope it works long term.

[@TAkkTikkA]

mine just came off tonight and I was panicking if i've destroyed my vacuum. this is super helpful!

[@nige]

Just incredible! Thank you. I followed your tutorial to a T! I have a slow-setting glue, so I have it curing right now. I decided to clean the filter and everything, so by tomorrow, it will be as good as new!

[@NatalieA.Roberts]

This was so helpful! Thank you very much for recording and posting.

[@SadShane]

Thanks for making this video!!! I couldn't figure out why my red seal and clip was loose until now.

[@gaylehobgood3035]

Thank you!!! I needed the glue trick because it still didn’t stay. Never would have figured this out, as I am a housekeeper and this isn’t my vacuum!! ❤

[@blaqsteel9]

You are the man! Thank you very much for this video. I just fixed my Dyson vacuum cleaner and everything works great! Keep up the great work!💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@mariaeugeniagonzalez3598]

Thanks a million for the video! Had been looking how to fix it for ages, and your solution worked PERFECTLY.

[@neeleshU]

thank you sir, really helpful. wonder if it will work just as good without putting the backing ring on? meaning just glue the red seal on and forget about the press-fit stuff?

[@richardsvacuumcenter]

Possibly if the bond is strong enough.

[@4shinta]

Absolute legend and a life saver. Thank you for all you do and share 😊.

[@brez6541]

First the trigger than this gasket. Was going to glue first time, I took apart cleaned and lasted 2 months. Went to empty and you guessed it. Just waiting for super glue to dry but thought I would give ya a shout out. Thank Youj. Great Vid...

[@Ian-Saxon]

Once I found my T8 Torx, everything went as per your video. Perfect, cheers.

[@TeddyCavachon]

I had the same problem on my V11 and did the same super glue repair to fix. Also ordered a spare assembly off Amazon for $16.

[@brentkirkman3290]

Great! Was about to buy a new bin, but they're out of stock. Will give this a try! Thanks!

[@mibasd]

thanks, glued ours as well. the gasket can be removed also by pulling it roughly (without twisting the screwdriver from inside).

[@crizeldayaan-corbita8752]

This is very helpful. I was scare for 30 minutes until i bump into this video. Huh! Thanks. I thought i meed to buy a new vacuum now. V15 here.

[@brendareynolds4375]

Thank you . After going to Dyson repair centre here in UK to find out of stock AND its a very common problem , out came the good old Super Glue . Just hope it lasts !!! Saved money too. Bad design on Dyson's part not exactly cheap vacuum cleaners !!

[@artemismoon7655]

Thanks! I am having to replace mine. My vacuum is getting old enough the seal basically started crumbling when I used the screwdriver to pop the clips. And several of the clips were broken and the plastic is fragile. At least it isn’t really expensive to replace.

[@lisahummel7795]

Do you know what is happening when the roller doesn’t stay engaged in any mode? I have the v11

[@Cynt12345]

A million thanx!! I have the same issue and couldn't figure out where this piece was supposed to go. 👍

[@omega592008171980]

This recently happened to me. I went to clean the canister by releasing it out from the tab. When I put it back the ring flopped out. Thank you for the tutorial. I was able to put it back, if it keeps coming off I'll glue it next time.

[@bk1963]

Thank you so much for the video. It helped me a lot. The red rubber ring and the round cap came off on mine as I was rinsing it. I tried to put it back on but It won't stay there.

[@kimmo545]

Kiitos!

[@OceanHedgehog]

Thank you, this was perfect! Mine had the exact same problem of the tabs being broken and needing to be glued.

[@lindacohron6188]

Awesome! My Dyson just broke and this is the exact fix!! Thank you so much!!

[@1991ROLEX]

If Dyson would provide a exploded diagram this would have been a no brainer! Thank-you for having what Dyson doesn't

[@NeloXXXX]

Dear sir, you are an absolute lifesaver! Thank you for a great video and a detailed explanation 💪

[@superiordelivery4256]

Great DYI vid. I don't recognize this particular Dyson vacuum however. Mine cylinder is perpendicular to the battery, not parallel with it.

[@richardsvacuumcenter]

It’s the newer models!

[@cmguzman15]

Excellent video. Clear and easy to follow. Thank you very much Richard.

[@wendistrong]

Thank you very much!! This was tremendously helpful. You moved at just the right pace and explained very well.

[@iandaly8786]

This is the second video of how to fix this seal that I have watched. Your video is actually so good that I can fix my Dyson the way you do it. The first guy didn't understand how the two tabs that held the seal in??

[@iandaly8786]

The Dyson Vacuum Seal problem is fixed. I also took your advice and super glued it in place. I had to clean all the parts with a brush thoroughly before I could get it back together.

[@gloriapr20107]

Hello what type of glue you used? Thanks 😊

[@richardsvacuumcenter]

I believe I was using super glue. But now I use epoxy. There is also a replacement part available to purchase online if you choose to go that route. Link in description.

[@debbiandrus5]

This is the most helpful video for this Dyson issue.

Thanks,Very helpful tips for red rubber falling apart for my Dyson V11 bin container.

[@heatherheffelfinger9394]

This was great! Super helpful. Very clear instructions and easy to follow. Thank you.👍👍👍

[@louisoberleuter]

[@ZinaPoullas]

This Helped a lot thank you

[@paddysaccount]

Fantastic - thank you very much for sharing this repair. Saved taking it to the shop!

[@nickcaplin5096]

Provided perfect illumination and solved my problem. Thank you!

[@johncollins9258]

Thank you! Very helpful! As a comment about Dyson ... 'common problem' as you say - so why doesn't DYSON fix it?

[@KLineDIM]

Thank you very much! Had the same problem and I was able to fix it and put it back together with your instructions!

[@mchb4177]

I was about to replace it. Thank you from France with much love ❤

[@gk2811]

Brilliant, for some reason, my one came apart!? Thankfully my first search on KZbin gave me the answer. Thank you. 👍

[@mira2116]

Thank you so much! This video saved me 💸. I replaced my first canister over a year ago because of this part. I didn't want to replace it again.

[@locationmarktravel9296]

i didn’t have torq 8 i used 1/16 allen wrench & i also didn’t glue parts but i will update if i receive other issues from dumping canister revised i had to use glue even without my clips being broke the red rubber kept sliding forward

[@junefrost4602]

Thanks!

[@richardsvacuumcenter]

Thank you!

[@nono-i6c4j]

awesome thanks so much, ladies need this when they dont have a man around - i very much appreciate this video.

[@jacklantic]

Something else I noticed is that it can be really difficult to push for the canister when emptying. I wonder if I made this worse by cleaning all the parts, so now the rubber is too squeaky-clean and doesn't glide over the cylinder nicely?

[@richardsvacuumcenter]

That’s possible yes. You can wipe it with armor all or something like that. I use spray food grade silicone that evaporates.

[@kindsir1256]

Thank you! I was totally stumped until I found this video!

[@nalancavas]

Thank you so much, very helpful video. I wish you the best day ever sir. Mine was ruined until I find this helpful video😂

[@vincentknox3616]

This was very helpful haven't used my vac for weeks

[@helenchapman8516]

Thank you! I was about to get out the super glue and now I know I’m on the right track!

[@banjameel8364]

Thank you so much, I am really looking for someone helping me to solve my problem, and then I got your amazing video Thank you
