Dyson V6 vacuum cleaner: expert recommendations
In this video, I've briefly answered the most frequently asked questions from Dyson V6 series vacuum cleaner owners.
The video covers the following topics:
how to replace the battery yourself, how to disconnect the cyclone from the motor unit, how to decipher the red indicator light and what it means, how to remove the brush roller drive, how to disassemble the pre-motor filter and why you might need to do this, what to do if the vacuum cleaner runs intermittently and shuts off, and what to do if the electric brush cuts out during operation.
This video is essentially a remake of my video review from two years ago about repairing the Dyson DC62 vacuum cleaner. That video explained how to extend the life of the brush with WD-40 spray, and how to rub the container with it to make it clear again. Overall, the video was certainly entertaining, but very long. This new review is a reminder for the user on how to repair their miracle vacuum cleaner themselves and how to avoid potential breakdowns and service calls.
