All about Dyson - How to take care of this vacuum cleaner
Dyson is one of the favorite vacuum brands on the market right now. If you have a model of this brand at home, you should know better than how to empty Dyson vacuum. In this post, we will learn why you can’t turn on your Dyson vacuum and what to look for when it no longer sucking. Let’s get into the details, shall we?
Why you can’t turn your Dyson vacuum on
We will sort the reason into two main groups:
Corded Dyson models:
Loose/ broken power cord: A loose or broken power cord won’t be able to bring electricity to the machine for functioning. Check and repair any tears, rips, or breakage on the power cord when you have plugged it in tightly but the vacuum is still not turned on.
Overheated motor: The safety mechanism will automatically turn the vacuum off when the motor is overheating. Let your Dyson vacuum cool down for a few hours before reusing it.
Blown fuse: Check the fuse inside of your Dyson vacuum to make sure it still works properly. When the fuse is blown, no machine can operate. Send the vacuum to Dyson so the professional can repair it for you.
Cordless Dyson models:
The battery is not charged: Make sure your vacuum is fully charged before using it. A low battery Dyson model may not have enough power to turn on in the first place.
Damaged battery: If you charged the battery but the Dyson vacuum won't turn on, chances are the battery is damaged. If you don’t know what a damaged battery looks like, replacing it with a new one is the fastest solution.
If these are not the case, you should check the airway for clogs since this is the most common reason that makes the motor overheat which leads to shut down.
What to look for when your Dyson vacuum doesn't suck
By checking these things, you can easily find the reason why your vacuum doesn't suck:
The roller: If the roller is tangled, your Dyson will lose suction. Remove the roller and free it from wrapped hair/string and wash it if necessary. Remember to follow the manual instruction and turn off your vacuum before you do anything.
The filter: A dirty filter will reduce the suction power over time. Since the filter is where most debris got caught, you should follow a tight filter maintenance schedule. Don’t forget to replace the filter with a new one when the date is due.
The hose, the nozzle, and the U-bend pipe: The air can escape through a hole in the airway, making the suction power drop. Check for any hole or tear on those parts by looking inside them under the light. Where the light gets in is where the air escapes when the Dyson vacuum operates.
The dust cup: When the dust cup is full, there is no more space for new debris. This is a common cause of weak suction in Dyson vacuums. Empty the dust cup when it’s ⅔ full so the suction power is always top-notch.
I hope this post was informative and you would know what to do now if your Dyson not sucking or operating. Learning how to take care of these problems can save you so much time and money while using this amazing vacuum to clean your house.
