unscrewing the ILIFE v7s vacuum cleaner and fixing it. this proccess solves most of the stopping problems. If this doesnt solve your problem, try this • ilife V7S Wall Sensor ...
Thank you for this video, this fixed mine this time! For those who followed the instructions in this video but the problem persists: check whether the big rolling brush has too much resistence if you turn it manually. If you remove the brush, you should be able to rotate the part that rotates the brush pretty easy. If it does not turn easy, you have to do some additional steps after you opened up the device as intructed in this video: Remove the circuit board, remove the side (bumper) sensors, remove the holder for the dust container and open up the mechanism that rotates the roller brush. It contains a motor and a little driving belt to rotate the brush. Probably there is dust / hair inside it, blocking the driving belt. Cleaning this fixed mine in the past, this time removing and cleaning the silicone caps fixed the issue, thanks to this video. Ilife v7 running almost daily for 2 years now.
Hi Ivo, I have a problem with the main brush, this part got stock it. I woul like to clean it but I don't know if I will able to do that 😅, do you have some photos or video to do that you Said. I will appreciate it
@@GilVazquez Hi Gil I also was a little out of my comfort zone doing this procedure, but if it is broken anyway, then why not have a go at it instead of just throwing it away. Just take your time and make some photos in between, and remember what goes where. If you were able to get the device opened up as shown in this video. your are more than halfway there. Good luck!
@Zlatko Minkov Hi, finally I SUCEED REPAIRING the bug:))) The solution is a comprehensive cleaning of the interior. No shortcuts. You have to remove the battery and dust container, remove small front wheel, unscrew the bottom and front bumper, clean the dust, check the sillicon pads on the front bumper switches (if they don't block the moving arms - you can even enlarge the holes). You can check all infrared LED sensors (turn on the cleaner and check it by phone camera in dark) - they are located on sides circumferentially, on the bottom and inside the front bumper switches. Most of people do only what i wrote above. I have done it too (few times), but it seemed to work only for a few minutes. I think this issue could be caused by some resistancy changes on the major power consumptions. So I strongly suggest to: - disconnect the main board and clean it from both sides - disconnect, unscrew and open the main brush engine with dismantling the transmission belt mechanism - can be dirty with hair - disconnect the assembly, unscrew and clean from dirt 2 main wheels - here there is no need to open the mechanism with gears, because it is tight enough Finally I asseblied the cleaner without the sillicon pads and the small black plastic cover on the rear bumper. I-life V7S-Pro has been working perfectly for last 10 hours of cleaning. I hope it will help you as well.
Hi Michal K! I would like to say thanks for your explanation. First I did the procedure of the video but it didn't work. So I did your procedure and worked. The problem was on the main brush engine! Para brasileiros: este foi o procedimento que fez com que o meu robô aspirador voltasse a funcionar. O problema estava especificamente no mecanismo que faz a escova central girar. Havia muito cabelo dentro dele o que impedia a escova rodar. Para solucionar o problema basta desmontar todo ele como no vídeo, soltar a placa, desplugar o cabo que liga a peça central a placa, retirá-la e abrir o mecanismo para limpeza.
In my case the cleaning the dust and the optical parts didn't help. Even not cleaning the parts in the removable front part (behind the black plastic are ~20 IR receivers). It's something mechanical what makes the V7s jumping back. After a hit from the front it's working then till next harder bump.
Merci ! I'm from France. I have the same pb. I'll try to clean like your. Thanks a lot for your video, I'm mom of 3 children, so my ilife is very important, as my best friend 😂
hello everyone, i got the new wall sensors today and installed it to the device. now its working normally, but i will test it for a week or 2. if the problem is permanently gone than i will post a new video about changing the wall sensors.
Hello, I'd love to hear your insights since the sensors change, did the problem go away? My robot is no longer under manufacturer's warranty. I will be happy to get a link to the site where I can order the sensors. and at the same time, a brief explanation of the replacement process. Thank you very much, in advance, shai
Yes problem is all gone. Still working fine after 1 month. And also I gave the brief explanation at my other video, about how to change the sensors. U can check it out
I tried all the cleaning explained in this video but didn't work, so I tried removing the two silicon caps. For now the vacuum seems back to work. I tested it for half an hour. Before it was stuck after a couples of minutes. Hope it helps
First, Thanks so much for making this video! Exactly the problem I'm having with mine. I followed your tutorial step by step and cleaned everything the same way you did yours. Unfortunately I was not so lucky with my model - Mine is still doing the exact same thing - multiple rounds going backwards and then just stops. I know this is a long shot but any additional ideas that come your mind that could cause this - On mine I even removed the battery to ensure no shorts. I'm open to any suggestion! Thanks again for the video!
After 1 months later I shooted this video, mine also doing the same problem. I still couldn't find any solution. i thought its a sensor problem, so I changed the front sensors. But it's still same. if I find any solution I will write here don't worry, also if u find any solutions let me know.

Причина может быть в боковых датчиках на бампер. У меня была аналогичная проблема. Я пробовал сначала паять сломавшийся контакт, хватало ненадолго, но потом заказал новый боковой датчик. Проблема была решена.
Mine is brand new and it wont work on carpet, when I put into carpet it just goes back and it does not want to clean carpet. As soon as it hits hard floor, it works great. Any ideas how to solve it to work also for the carpet?
I had the same problem. I found that one light sensor ( that with white silicone cap on it), has been broken, diode has broken leg. I resoldered it and now works again.
ok, mine was having the same issue and it was simply that the vaccum had bumped into the couch to hard that the bumper dislodges itself from it's normal track Just snapping it back into place fixed it Just something to bear in mind before you take the whole thing apart
Good morning, I have an ILIFE V7S plus that has only been used 3 times, but now it turns on a little and stays put on the red light. It does not get to hit any obstacle. What can I do to fix the problem? Thanks
Hello I tried everything which u showed in vedio . But I am still facing the same problem. Do u have any solution for this. ? Please let me know any other solution for this.
Thank you i did exactly what u did on yours altough mine is a little bit oler i think mine was A4 model but works after i clean the sensors and tear the robot apart
Hello everyone. Cleaned up EVERYTHING (front wheel, even small piece at the tip of the brush), mine goes directly backwards for a few centimeters, then turns around and stops and beeps... Any ideas ? Thanks !!
No still same problem. I also mailed the ilife official store at AliExpress. They are also looking for a solution. İf something comes up, I will post it in here
After a few weeks of contacting with ilife support they told me that the light sensors are not working. Now they sent me the new ones. When the package arrives. I will try it asap, and write the result on here.
I did all the things that you said, but after some time (2 months) the same problem appeared again. And I did everything again but now it didn't solve. What I can do?
Oh, I just resolved it cleaning the contacts in the front panel, they are green, and I cleaned and it returned to works perfectly again. So, more one tip: you should clean the contacts that are in the front panel, when you remove it, disconect it and you will find it. Thank you very much for the video!
f the ILIFE V7s bounces, stops, fails, and doesn't make the sensors as you do in this video, follow the path in the last link I gave. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-e9ok0OQNZDA.html
