DYSON Supersonic HAIR DRYER Loud Noise Fault - Can I FIX it? 

That's an electric ducted fan. Precision fit between blades and housing improves efficiency. The bearings in the motor sound dry or galled. Not long for this earth. If you could disassemble and oil them you might get more life. Despite the outrageous price of Dyson goods, the motor and fan assembly is cheaply made. If a replacement motor/EDF assembly is available buy one while you can.

It has passed the 2y warranty so it's working as expected.

This is definitely the best step by step tutorial to clean/fix the dyson hair dryer. Mine just starts sounding strange today and time to clean it myself. Though I am not sure whether I have an elegant way to take off the bottons as well as glue them back on.

Thank you so much for producing this video. I followed it step by step with my Uncle & this resolved all the issues. Really appreciate you producing this as I would never have known where to start without your guide. Hairdryer works fully again now 🎉

Sounds much better after cleaning the motor. Amazing how the hair got there in the first place as there are those filters.

Very nice fix, yes it was quite easy but still you show us how to do it so thank you so much and keep up the great content

Good fix Vince well done 😊

Yellow mat lovers will be loving this episode 😂

Nice little fix there. It definerly sounds better.

Love these videos, when is the next Rolls Vince.

In a production assembly line, the last thing you want is all screws from different sizes. Same as having filters with different shapes. Each one is a different part number, more stock, more parts .... I dont think this add to the quality of the product at all, but it is clear how they are fighting the serviceability. Next step should be ultrasonic welding in the handle .... porobably they didnt go this way because the "filters" can be "replaced" ... LOL. Excellent fix Vince, you dont give up easily !!!!!

nice job vince😀👍

Hi vince the mat is like the sun lol always watch your videos like the car fix and when your home can always hear pots in background like some one is washing up all the time lol prb no put sounds like it 😀

Great video as always... but I fail to understand how pretty much anything from Dyson, but particulalry this and the fan heater represent value for money.

Good job mate 👍

Great video vince really noisy indeed when first heard i thought motor

Great job Vince. The sound comes from worn rotor bushings. Put some oil and it might reduce the noise.

Quick and easy fix!

3 new video notifications I am amazed.

Great repair. Shows a bit of a design flaw and that it needs a decent filter at the air entry point. If I had purchased this and it had developed that fault after just 2 years I would have returned it under the Consumer Guarantees act to the retailer to fix.

Well resurrected. I suspect it was the trapped fly making some of the noise and my other half would be squealing if I spent that much on a hair dryer. You could use very high bond tape for the buttons, making them reasonably easy to remove when it clogs again next month.

Great video Vince, Pity it was full of Hot air ;-) I'll get my coat LOL!

Vince is the best content and RU-vid creator❤

Blown away by that repair! Definitely sounds far better at the end!

After 2 years I think it's done well, motor bearings might be a bit dry and worn, but that's just to be expected. It doesn't matter how many filters the manufacturers fit, through time the dust always get's through. Vaccum cleaners are notorious for the motors etc getting coated with a hard coating of dust and gunge making them noisy and ineficient. Good vid of the dissasembly though Ray

High Pitch Screem, poss bearing on the motor needs a dab of sewing machine oil. Poss internal duct routing seems a little conducive to xcess noise too

8:19 the little details Vince. Love it hahahah

Wearing headphones, that fly noise scared the hell out of me! :)

Nice fix Vince! You can buy some b7000 its a great glue and easy to take off if needed!

great repair Vince more brownie points from wife/daughter :)

Hello, I love these videos, I understand cars but this electronic stuff is way over my head. Maybe you could do a video on all the equipment you use, what it does and why you chose that make etc. Then people like myself would have a better understanding. Keep up the good work.

Hi Vince, I often make screenshots when you show us special tools and other materials, in case I want to do a repair myself. Would you please consider to make a separate video only about all your tools your are using and tell the use, pros and cons? Thanks in advance!

Can't argue with the her indoors Vince...

Yes thats right

You can do that every month! Don't buy Dyson devices because some is really difficult to repair like apple ! Regards and thank you for your video. Is only my opinion.

Nice work!! I also think that the hair should not get caught inside the hair dryer, after all it is a Dyson and they are pricey...

Bought one for my girlfriend a couple of years ago. I’ll take notes

For people interested, I have both an original Dyson hairdryer, as well as a fake one from Ali for 75 bucks, and they're about the same quality. Ali is only slightly worse. But even the packaging and the cable is similar quality.

Hi Vince, I hope you did not "hurt" the hairdryer with the IPA as (I believe) it could dry out the bearings. The motor must a have a bit of lubrication there, otherwise these noises will ramp up again IMO.

How did hair get past the filter? Is the filter damaged?

Oh the yellow peril! Come on you Blues!

Neon desk mat returns! Doesn't look as glaring this time wonder why?

The yellow mat burns my B E A U T I F U L E Y E S

My Mothers Hair dryer from before 20 years starter making crazy jet engine sounds im glad that its not that crazy to open it. Yet again mine looks old and is made like a Turbine xd The name of it is FANSET..

Hair today gone tomorrow 😂

I have a love-hate relationship with this product. It is good at what it does, but the failure rate on these is astronomical. They always have thousands of them available refurbished, which I assume are ones that customers returned as defective. I also have multiple friends who have had them fail just outside of the warranty period. It seems Dyson is using pretty low end components and relying on marketing to keep people coming back.

The lime green mat is growing on me.

Yep definitely much better

Please consider making a video on moulding that hideous yellow mat into something else not in frame? A Pikachu maybe? And get that lovely sweet blue mat back in the game 😆🙏

Retire the old-standard (the blue mat) in favor of the yellow?

Awesome fix! Surprisingly easy to get inside, it being a Dyson product!

Nice Fix Vince! Definitely sounds better now. I had been thinking of getting one of those to repair too as I just did a couple of Dyson fan's. Still not sure on that yellow mat though! Great job as always :)

Sound like air is restricted, like my Dyson hp01 till I cleaned it. You might have to clean the heating element area/top part.

Before I even start watching "Long Live The Yellow Mat"

I've found the exact one for around 36£ on ebay the seller says that it runs for a while then overheats and cuts out, so maybe it is like yours with built in dust? Those dysons hairdryer are quite expensive

Bearings shot 👍

There is still a little squeal sound on all the settings it harder to hear on the higher settings but when you turn it off it squeals also its the bearings in the motor their not spinning smoothly and will seez completely eventually needs a better clean and oil on the bearings

Your son uses the hairdryer too? I never used a girly hairdryer as a teenage dirtbag, but I can kind of see the attraction of this hot hole device... LOL

you need a little bit of oil on the shaft (there is a small copper bearing that has become dry, so a little bit of oil on the shaft that runs through the engine, there is the small copper bearing 😊but it should be a very tiny little bit of oil no more😊 and that will stop the last little squeak in the engine

can not see how they charge £500 for this , can not cost £30 to make

Hi Vince good little video that , I think you made a 100% improvement. On the subject of repairs how about you have a go at my toilet macerator Ive had a look and I reckon the motor rotor is spinning out of centre it makes a horrible noise and stops not pumping at all well. Any way send me your address and i.ll drop it round. I wont bother to clean it out too much. Wot u say ,,u up for the challange, Cheers

Great fix. Still unsure how hair got in there

Hi vince I have a idea u could get a game boy online preferably on eBay they go for about €35 to €47 they are quite cheap broken just an idea love your vids good luck with that rolls Royce

And you were perhaps expecting some kind of appreciation from the wife? HaHaHaHa, best you got was, she thinks it’s better, take it easy Mrs Vince, that was a borderline compliment. But, (shock horror) she can still hear a noise, that no bugger else can! Even Vince claims he can hear something, yea, just agree, best be on the safe side.

Fluorescent green jumper needed with that mat

Bring back the RR

Mrs Vince never mind that roller fix the dyson

You gonna need a hair dryer, to repair a hair dryer 😂

Is that dryer using one of the infamous "digital motors" Dyson keeps bragging about?

have had a look for spares, seems Dyson offer plenty of spare parts but not the motor

It naturally has a high pitched whine, and also 5 dB louder compared to the Laifen ... For the price, it should not be giving any trouble until maybe the 5 year mark!!

This video blows. Keep making more!

clearly sounds loads better

I was scared to comment lol but I thought that sounds like the fans out of balance

The bearings sound like they are dirty and not moving freely like new ones and will seez up all the way also probably making the motor hotter needs cleaning and oil the bearings unless you can replace them

ha my carpet cleaner got the same problem high pitched motor

This is what happens if a company sacrifices reparability and simplicity for design.... such a complicated design for such a simple function.

good job hair not curly lol good vid

hair raising stuff

New motor is $60 on eBay. Buy one and keep it on hand for when it quits.

Using a hair dryer to repair a hair dryer can be very dangerous as it could create a wormhole so its a good thing you used the hot air gun instead.

Always just agree with the mrs it's easier 😂

Hairdryers! ...Alien technology to me! 😐

Ha wait till you get that look from the women who already decided they are going to buy something new because they just want to buy something and Vince goes “I can fix that”. That’s how things fall in the tub or get run over “on accident” lol.

Aaargh! Yellow! #bluematgang

is that Real or Fake (Chinese) Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer in the video? I cannot imagine the real one for 490 pounds is that simple inside!

NOT THE YELLOW MAT!!! NOOOOO!!!!! 🤣

Fastest T-Break repair 😅

Motor lubrig only miss

Full of Dyson serviceability traps. Hidden internal (not) lifetime filters, components attached in a way to make disassembly difficult or to deter trying. Hair getting past the screen filter I can see happening if hair aligned up with the holes in it. So some could be expected to get into the body of the machine, but the hair being able to get past the hidden internal filters and into the motor to me is quite concerning. How many of these get put in the bin because of this.

This video is a proof of why buying this appliance is an exercise you're going to repeat on a regular basis... barely two years and it's already struggling. There is a fine polymer material filter inside not designed to be serviced. Since it's going to fill and obstruct with use, filtering fine dust particles especially exfoliation, it's going to jam pretty good rather quickly with no way of user cleaning. That might cause overheating and blowouts when the air flow will be insufficient. Worst still... the filter has been clearly defeated by hair which is not supposed to happen. Moreover that motor is not going to have a long lifespan running that hard in such a poor environment. Learnt lesson: I am the most unlikely customer Dyson will ever have.

A bit of hair around your motor comes with age ;)

My mum has one and they do sound like that after you removed the hair so it's normal

A nice rip-hair.

the motor bearings sound like they have failed.

GREEN GREEN GREEN

How did hair get in, its supposed to blow, not suck

ya wonder how it got in

maybe it's need some grease or oilin the motor

wow, they cant make anything right these days. My fan is like 15 years old and works perfect
