Hello! I have a Dyson DC41. It is not working, the roller will not roll, it is not tangled with anything. We took any string or hair that was around the roller.

Start of by laying the machine on its back unfasten the solepate (which is the cover over the brush roll) as soon as its unfastened it will release with ease then you will see the brush roll with the belt around it simply pull the brushroll out of its position and release the belt from the motor spindal (if attached) and then out your new belts around the slot on the brush roll and feed the belt over the motor spindal (this will be very tough to strech on. Once you have done that out the brush roll back in its position and the soleplate back and you should have succesfully fitted a belt to your dyson.

Check the beater bar to see if it turns freely. It should spin real easy. If it takes just a little effort, your problem would be the beater bar is binding on one or both of the end caps. When the bar gets bound up, there is a clutch with three balls in it which slip in and out of their position which cause the loud noise you describe - like something is caught up in it. To solve, you need to remove the bottom plate and pull up one end of the beater bar - the end opposite the belt is easiest. Pull off the end cap (it just slides on. You may have to rotate some). If the shaft comes out, that's okay. That just means the shaft came out of the opposite end cap. Clean out both ends and reassemble. Before putting on the bottom plate, check to see if the beater bar turns freely. If it still makes the sound, I would suspect the clutch has a bad or broken internal spring. This would require repair or replacement of the clutch.

Have a dyson dc41 brush head wont spin so tried another which i bought this wont spin either the hoover picks up well with the hose what could be the problem be please

Hello, this is Ava with Think Crucial.

There are a number of reasons why your brush roller has stopped moving. General maintenance to your vacuum is crucial and will help it work at peak performance.

First things first lets focus on the brush roller. Unplug the vacuum and turn it on its side. Look for any noticeable clumps of debris or hair strands that may be caught in the brush roller. Remove these obstructions, probably best to do so with a scissor if it's hair or long pieces of carpet fibers. After removing the debris try manually rotating the brush roller to uncover other hidden clogs. Another thing to take note of is the condition of the bristles on the roll itself. Are they loose or worn down? These are signs that your brush roller is in need of replacing.

While checking out your brush roll you might as well take a look at your vacuums belt. Your belt should be replaced about every three months. After regular usage, the belt will stretch out, lessening the tension on the brush roller. Lesser tension diminishes the brush roller's turn rate and speed. If the belt feels loose then it certainly is affecting your vacuums suction as well as your brush roll not moving at all.

How to replace lower cable winder ?

Hi Mani, it's Jack at Dyson.

DC41's lower cable winder is attached to the hose assembly, and if the cable winder has broken you would need a replacement hose assembly. It's likely your DC41 would still be within our 5-year guarantee period, so it would be worth contacting us directly so we can order this for you.

When you have a moment, please give us a call on 0800 298 0298 (UK) or 1-866-693-9766 (US) to speak with our experts.

You will need to pull the roller out and clean it. I think some of the strings are tangle up at the end of this roller. (Most rollers will come apart at the end for cleaning.) Make sure that the strings are not tangle up on the belt pulley as well. I hope this will help you.

The rollers at the bottom of the sweeper have things stuck around them

You need to start with a pair of scissors and patience. Sit on the floor with the vacuum roller visible and accessible. Snip a string and pull it off. If the roller stops, cut string at that point. Try again. this is time consuming, but necessary. We borrowed a vacuum from a family that had four girls with long blond hair. We had to de-hair the roller before it would work sufficiently on our carpet. Once the hair was off, it worked GREAT! It was so wonderful that we went out and bought a Dyson of our own; now we don't have to remove long blonde hair from the roller to get it to work.
