Dyson DC58 Troubleshooting

its been on charge for two days and the light which is noramally blue is red.

my Dyson does not charge it been on charge for two days the blue light is on the red-it was perfectly well until it run out of charge on SATURDAY

My dyson is fully charged, but is stop starting when I come to use it , I've cleaned everything I can think of including brush , filter , also main body

My disown is not staying on when button pushed it's going on and off constantly not continuous suction ??

My Dyson DC58 base will not charge any more. The blue light comes on for a few minutes and then it goes out. I have tried a number of outlets. Any thoughts?

Vac doesn't charge even though lights are on

Keeps cutting out when all assembled but if you take out the filter or remove the bin it runs

You would think for such an expensive vacumn the battery would hold a charge

And to replace it costs like over $100

Mine in doing the exact same thing. I only get the blue light when i pull the trigger. worked fine when i put it on the charger the day before. I don’t want to buy a battery if that is not the problem.

My Dyson V6 Absolute is 2y 7m old. After charging it only goes for half a minute then just dies. The Dyson website says that the battery life should be 15 years. My next door neighbour has the exact same problem with hers, is it a manufacture fault?? £60 seems an awful lot to pay for a replacement.

Brush won’t turn it seems stuck, I try to turn the brush and it won’t turn

My brush won’t turn. I removed the brush and tried to turn the part but it won’t turn.

Mine has had the same on/off problem. It’s less than 2yrs old. Hasn’t done that much work but it’s been on charge for a week, I’ve cleaned everything fully and then it goes on/off constantly - about half a second on/half a second off. Very frustrating - I can’t actually use it. Is it a 2 year warranty?

My V6 Dyson cordless after being charged fully on lasts 10 minutes any one know why I would be great full for any help thought I might need a new battery it is 3 years old

Why on earth will my $1,000 Dyson animal not charge? It is barely 3months old.

My dyson is working for about a min and then there’s no charge left, even though it’s been on the charger all night???

I have the Dyson hand held DC58. The suction surges, but doesn’t pick up anything. Solution says to clean filters. I was easily able to clean the top blue filter that pulls out, but even taking out the screw above the power outlet, I can’t get to the filter above the handle. How do I get to and clean this filter? Thanks

mine just stops mid vacum feeling cheated as only had it 1 year Andrea Smith

Dyson won't charge from mains please help

My Dyson doesn't charge until I put it back in the charger after trying to use it. It indicates its charged but will run for about 5 seconds. Back in the charger it will charge.

This is annoying. Very annoying. Ive checked all the connections.

we have had nothing but problems with this machine. It works great-when it works however.

Can we buy new cord mines broken right at plug of vaccuum

Same problem here..It ran fine after taking it off charge then completely stopped working! The battery light is blinking but nothing else is working at all! Very frustrating

My Dyson keeps turning off after 10 seconds?? Would this be a faulty battery?

I have had my Dyson V7 approximately a year and the battery has died. The red light flashes approximately 30 times after a full charge however I have no power. I have called Dyson and have to pay £61 for a new battery. I only use it on the stairs as I have a different vacuum both upstairs and downstairs, I am therefore surprised that it has stopped working so soon.

Ours appeared to have knackered battery, but read the manual, removed the filter (round purple, top of device) tapped out dust, removed debris, then carefully levered the filter off the plastic core and washed it under running water, loads of crap came out.

Now runs fine, so it's the cut out for a clogged filter not a duff battery……. For now ;-)

Evening

my dyson is making Reving sound with a blue light then going to a flashing green light

There is no suction on mine. I take the nozzle off I can feel the suction from motor however when nozzle attached no suction. Have checked for blockages and there are none.

I have a brand new Dyson V7 - been using only 4 times - had less than 1 week

first few uses it was fine. - but after charging fully overnight it works for a few seconds and then stalls

punt back on charge blue light goes off

same thing happens

it is only 5 days old

any suggestions please

Ellen Ramsey, I have the same problem as you, did you find out the cause of the problem? Thank you

I cannot use my vacuum on max, only works on ordinary mode.. Anyone else with this problem, or know what to do. Thanks

Had the same problem. cleaned the unit and even bought a new battery. Still did not charge. Here's all the problem was... the stick had a clog in it near the brush head. Once i cleaned the head... problem solved. Check to see if the unit will hold a charge without attachments on it. If it does... the problem is the attachment is clogged. Don't ask me why it would not charge with a clogged attachment, but so is the case.

After a couple of minutes working well, it just stops. Plug in the charger, unplug after a few seconds and it works again. Then repeats. Hopeless troubleshooting section on the Dyson site.

i had the same trouble. remove the attachments and look for a blockage down by the head. You will have to remove the bottom piece of the roller attachment to remove debris. There is a little plastic screw. The vacuum will not charge fully if there is a blockage in the attachment. This should solve the problem. Trust me. I already got a new battery and that was not the issue.

My hand held dyson just failed me. It was kept charged for quite some time. Worked as normal until the battery went dead. Put it on charge ( blue LED steady light was on while on charge), until it turned off. Used it as normal operation for a little while- until once again, it stopped. Put it back on charge- but it refuses to charge. The blue LED light was flashing for about 2 seconds, then, stopped flashing.

I have taken out the filter to wash it. If it fails to operate, I will have no choice but to replace its battery. %#*@ sore, as I have not mishandled or abused this machine.

Sounds like a typical con to me, like I phone chargers. Two tears and you need a new “dysentery” battery. They don’t share that on their adverts.

I have an old dc58 and not sure if the one on the dyson website is compatible - does anyone know? Trying to do chat with them but unsuccessful

When a rechargeable battery is getting weak it cannot sustain full amperage draw (power). However it may still be able to run at regular power.

Rechargeable batteries can go bad if completely drained and left to sit in storage for a period of time. So keep it charged. If a battery goes bad you may try the suggestion below but do so at your own risk. Warning: do not try to recharge the battery with anything other than the proper charger or the battery may explode.

To JumpStart the battery apply DOUBLE the charge voltage but arch the connecting wires to you get sparks. Do not leave it connected. You just want to JOLT the battery or wake it up. Jolt it a couple times and try recharging. Repeat if necessary but be prepared to get yourself a new battery.

I charge mine but it only lasts 1-2 minutes. I plug it to charge for couple of seconds. It shows full bar of charge. Then again it only lasts 1-2 minutes. I tried cleaning all the clogs and filter etc. what the heck is wrong with it ?

Motorised brush head would run despite the trigger not being pulled so had to take it off when not in use. No battery drain then either. When re-attaching, used to power up by itself, I could use it I guess until I was done then remove it after use to stop it continually spinning all on its own. Then it suddenly stopped working altogether. Vacuum part works fine, charges etc but motorised animal head doesn’t spin anymore. Test to to would be to feed 12v just the head to see if it still works. I’ve had it apart and cleaned it out, cleaned contacts and bent them out a little to see if it might have not been making good contact. I’ve had it a few years and it’s been flawless and the unit itself works fine otherwise. Such a shame it might have to be completely replaced. I can’t find a way into the PCB despite removing the star-headed screw just behind the trigger. Just doesn’t want to come apart at all which is frustrating if it’s something that can be easily replaced or a dry joint.

My Dyson keeps going on and off do I need new brushes

Sounds like I'm having a problem that many of your experiencing my vacuum turns on runs for a few seconds and then shuts off. I've checked through the system for clogs or blockage has washed and dried and reinserted the filter without any success. This vacuum was a small fortune I'm totally disappointed

My Dyson goes on and off while I'm vacuuming. How could I fix it.

If you have an older model Dyson vac then either it is the battery not holding voltage or (check youtube) there may be a magnetic interlock switch at the bottom of the handle by the dump catch that may be the problem. If there is a wire there then this would indicate a switch. You can try by replacing the switch or magnet. Easy way to tell if there is a magnet present is to take a needle and move it around the area. If it seems to stick then there is likely a magnet present and also a switch. So if the catch is loose down there chances it is affecting the workings of the magnet. But I found that the battery didn't hold VOLTAGE - not CHARGE - is the likely culprit. Return the 'new' battery and let them know that the battery isn't holding voltage. .Best indication is that if you run your vac on low speed and it keeps running but switch it to HIGH and it soon quits is a good indicator. A weak battery cannot hold voltage on high drain but may be able to on LOW. Old or faulty battery!! Get a new / good one!!!

OMG same issue! Did anyone find a solution? I’ve only had it for 2 years…SOS

I bought by Dyson on Groupon. Apparently refurbished which I did not know. When I received it I called Dyson to get specific instructions to make sure I charged it long enough, how long should I leave it on the charger after usage. The lady instructed me to leave it plugged in eight hours every Sunday. I charged it it worked for about one minute. Then it would never hold a charge again. I called Dyson back after a very long conversation they sent me a replacement battery. Now the replacement battery will go blue to indicated is charging. When the light goes off as I understand it that means it is charged. It will power on but will not continue. I left it on the charger overnight and it continues to do the same thing. There are no clogs has never worked more than a minute. Dyson made it clear they do not do any repairs on vacuum cleaners but through Groupon as they are refurbished and you just take your chances. Any suggestions for me? Thank you so much and advance.

I would check the brush bar. You cannot see the clog until you remove the plate at the bottom. See “Clogged Brush Bar”. After several trials and even battery replacement, I simply had a clogged brush bar.

Exactly the same as previous comments. Runs for a few seconds then cuts out; replace in charger for a few seconds; runs for a few seconds then cuts out again and on and on and on. I’ve tried cleaning everything but no change. Waste of money, buy a Vax or Shark. Still not to worry, I’m sure James Dyson’s enjoying his money! Just remind me, what was the knighthood for?

My dyson just makes a beep when I push the trigger , everything looks fine when I take it apart and have cleaned and washed the filter

My Dyson indicates fullt charge but no funktion. All there lights are on when the trigger is actuated.

Where can I purchase a Dyson mode #SB09 battery?

Where can I purchase a battery for Dyson Model#SB09

I have owned 2 Dyson stick vacuums and each time the battery only lasts 5-6 minutes and thats on low. On high speed it lasts about 4 minutes! The 2nd one I purchased is only 3 yrs old and it has done this from the moment I purchased it new. I dont even notice it working much better than the $150 other brands I have purchased, and the Dyson was 3 times more! Never again, not worth the money!

I too am having same issues. I have been thoroughly pleased with this vacuum for a very long time . The unit runs for 30-60 seconds and then stops. Wont turn back on, blue flashing light, etc. No blockage, and I am currently trying to wash the filter but I have small hope that will remedy the situation. There was no indication that there was anything wrong with the vacuum, this was all extremely sudden!

My stick vacuum cleaner starts on it own when charging

My Dyson works on regular mode, but when I turn on MAX it stops working in just seconds.

The solution to it ‘shutting off’ after a few seconds is to WASH the tiny blue filter at the top. Pull it out and rinse under Warm water using dish soap to scrub the filter….you should see black dirt rinse out. After it dries thoroughly (about a day) reinstall and it will work as normal. I keep an extra filter on hand so I can swap one in while I wash/dry the other.

Good luck!

My dyson has to be reset everytime I use it. It runs for about a minute and then needs to be reset(after the reset it runs fine) . Is there a permanent cure to resolve this problem?

Mein Dyson schaltet sich beim saugen nach ca. 30 Sekunden ständig aus und wieder ein.

Es besteht keine Verstopfung

Why has my floor brush stopped spinning?

The problem first started when i held the trigger switch and it kept acting if it was going off and on. Thinking that something clogged, I found all channels were clear and removed and or cleaned the filters. No suction at all. What now?

Also there is no hair or threads blocking the roller that will not budge.
