HOW TO - DYSON BALL MOTOR CHANGE DC41 DC55 DC65 UP13 UP20 

Yep, he is a very friendly guy! Very knowlegable about vacuum cleaners. Does very nice ASMR videos! Also has a good sense of humour.

The original motor was 700W and the one I replaced it with is 1300W and the suction is noticeably stronger, however it is now much louder though and heats the filter up more In the EU vacuums have had low wattage motors since September 2014 which reduced their suction power as a result and then motor I replaced it with is from an older dyson DC41

That's a very clever analogy - good thinking!

@@parwaz7861 Thank you chap!!

You’re welcome, hope you get it working again!

Thank you for the great comment, I’m glad you found it entertaining! I wish you the best of luck with your repair :)

Dont get a Dc15 they are heavy but good machines but they are heavy. Dc14s are brilliant

@@2009danial its not my DC15 it belongs to my local mosque and yeah they are heavy but they are great machines on of my fav Dysons

@Adam Saleem my mosque also has a few Henry's some Micro HVR200M-22's a Micro HVR200M-11 and a standard Henry 200 HVR200-11 (like my Henry)

I think it should fit providing you have the motor mounts and parts but I’ve never done it before so not really sure, I recommend using the same pcb as the cleanerhead relies on it

The dc50 small ball is quite different but the general layout is quite similar, it just differs in ways

Yes I've seen that. I started taking it apart and got as far as springing it apart but stopped when I can see if I don't know what holds what I could end up with springs and catches falling apart. I really need a step by step like this DC 41. I've left it working with a noisy motor for now.

Hi, the small Dyson screws are either T8 or T9 I don't remember exactly for sure but it's one of those, like the screws on the cordless vacuums

@@parwaz7861 thank you!

Thank you! Cheers!

I used a DC41 1300W YDK motor

@@parwaz7861 ty

All Dyson ball uprights have 2 motors - one main suction motor and one brushbar motor

I’m not sure, I guess anywhere online really

@@parwaz7861 Turns out Dyson has made it so this motor cannot be purchased anywhere "new". I can only find used ones on ebay....what good is this?

You are so welcome! ✌🏽

The dc40 is the same vacuum externally as a dc55 but with shorter cable, smaller bin, filters, and lighter weight but internally it’s more complex than the dc41/55

I don't think cfm is everything, it's how it's utilised. The main thing is getting airflow throigh the pile, as well as good cleanerhead design to optimally clean the carpet as good as possible. Kirbys have one of the highest cfm numbers but the airflow drops massively on a fitted carpet, so you need high suction to keep the airflow going which is why dysons have high suction to optimise the airflow

@@parwaz7861 very true.

@@parwaz7861 that’s also why modern vacuums use more power than older style ones typically.

@@parwaz7861 that’s the common misconception with reviewers. Airflow is important but having suction is just as important. If a carpet doesn’t allow much air through suction must compensate by sucking the head closer to the carpet and pulling the air through the fibers.

They're okay, but the hoses are far too short, great suction though and design otherwise. I wish they had better wand connections too as they can leak air

@@parwaz7861 Thanks for the reply!

The motor would overheat if it isn’t getting enough airflow to keep the motor cool. The pleated hepa filter next to the motor is quite difficult to wash and the pores may be blocked this resulting in the motor struggling to exhaust the air out the filter, hope this helps The motor in this DC55 was only 700W because since 2014 vacuum cleaners here have to be a low wattage to save energy, so I used a motor from an older model DC41 (basically the exact same vacuum) and fitted that to have stronger power We didn’t get the UP13 here, they were made for North America and had much stronger power than the ones we have here. The ball Animal 2 and Animal 3 have slightly stronger power, however I’m not sure if that’s due to a more powerful motor or if it’s due to the tweaks they made in the cyclone assembly unit to optimise airflow

I edited my comment to speak to the filter issue. It is overheating with no filter installed in the cannister (or in the exhaust). 😢

@@vicblaze3479 Try running the vacuum without the bin/cyclone assembly attached. If the motor still overheats, it’s definitely the motor. Make sure the voltage of the replacement motor is the same as the one in your vacuum There’s a chance there could also be a blockage in the machine somewhere too. Either in the cleanerhead, the wand, the internal hose, the changeover valve hose or the airpath that leads up to the clear bin

Yes, I'm an idiot. It was blocked in the extension wand. 😂

Because they’re dIeSoon

Probs the spring loaded plastic piece where it meets the bottom of the wand

@@parwaz7861 alright any way i could fix it? The suction has also dropped so im concerned

@@2009danial I reckon it's that, it's either broken or loose that's all I can suggest

@@parwaz7861 ah ok i will take the housing off and the upper one and have a look. If its broken i will replace or if its loose i will have to see what i can do. Thanks anyway mate!

The DC55s are actually quite reliable, nothing really fails on them often. Infact DC33s are less reliable due to their flaws despite being more simple

@@parwaz7861 I'm surprised ngl haha. I'm very curious to see how long my UP22 lasts. The bin release is already sticking so not a good start

@@RJA_World should be fine, once the mechanism gets dusty it'll be smoother due to the rubber bin flap seals sticking less

@@parwaz7861 thanks for the advice. I'll l see how it goes. It's only 3 weeks old so i don't expect anything to break on it yet, as you might remember I baby my machines too, I hate stuff getting damaged. I'm excited to get my DC26. That machine has always intreaged me. I know it's not the best performing but it's quirky.

@@parwaz7861 I finally gkt my DC03 filter out! I phoned Dyson and they advised to prize it out with a flathead screwdriver. It worked thank god. I also tried to get the machine dated but she couldn't get any info on it unfortunately

Yes

@@parwaz7861 I'm going to have an attempt on this. Wish me luck. Could you do one for the Small ball ones with the new brushbar?

Fetish? It's called a tutorial video

Not even close to fetish.

@@charlesrodriguez7984 What about the other 200 videos, looks like a fetish to me.

@@Paradoxical124 ok

@@Paradoxical124 your comments ain't funny😐

Hmmm either the vacuum hasn’t been assembled correctly or the motor impeller isn’t spinning properly is all I can think of

@@parwaz7861 realised that the brush bar micro switch spring is still on my work bench. Wonder if that’s the issue. Also the brush bar button next to the power button isn’t working, so now I’ve taken that apart
