Thanks for that and thank you for not editing out the difficulties with reassembly. It’s good to know what things can be tricky with stuff like this.
Thank you so much Alec, my DC 05 model is slightly different, I couldn't remove the wheels, but with my dear friends perseverance and patience, I managed to get inside and repair the broken cord. Dyson in 2017 stopped assistance for DC05. Thank you again!
Hi again. Found the route into the reel after removing the release catch, fiddled out the wire, shortened it and soldered the spades back on and away we go! A bit of a fiddle getting the wire just the right length to fit it back in! Keep going with the videos they are really helpful. Cheers
Thank you! Seeing you taking it apart gave me strength to do it myself. Did as you did, all went great, Dyson fixed!
Thanks for the video. Fitting that cover back over the motor ass'y and cord reel is truly a pain. I wish I had just settled for replacing the plug I suspected was bad instead of insisting on testing continuity from the plug to the motor leads first. It would have spared me the entire dis/assembly process. But the process was made possible by your video, so thanks again!
Thanks for showing me how to get the wheels off. It's easier if you first remove the yellow plug in the centre of each wheel. Use a screw like corkscrew to get it out. Even then, it takes a huge amount of force to snap the wheels off.
Hi David,
I am so glad you got a solution. I will be making more videos soon, I have temporarily stopped because of shoulder surgery but should be able to shoot some in the coming week.
Hi Alec, have you done any video's on actually repairing the cable in a DC05 cable retract as opposed to just replacing the unit? I'd love to know how the cable retract unit comes apart?
Thx!!!!! Very useful video.
Awesome, Happy Vacuuming :)
Hello I have seen your video that is very good and thank you very much, I wanted to ask you if I can get the cable for the Dyson dc05 thanks
Hi Alec
Thank you, with your excellent instructions I was able to remove, clean and refit my 10 year old DC 08. It is now functioning like the day I bought it.
I have another Dyson the upright model 24 with the ball movement. If you have made a video about it will be grateful if you could publish that for us please.
Thank you, Dukhinda, UK
Hi Peter,
I have been successful a couple of times in re-threading cord onto the spool and attaching it to the terminals, HOWEVER it was not worth it in the end to continue trying as it was always a half hour job and I didn't feel like it was going to be 100% reliable in the long term. I think it is a 7m cord but I never repair these anymore, I always just replace the retract.
Merci beaucoup 😀
Cheers. I'll have to hope the break is at the plug end!
Very useful video - thanks.
My problem (or rather my wife's, I'm ashamed to admit) is that the cord retracts steadily as she is hoovering and she has to keep pulling hard on the Dyson to pull the cord back out again, which ends up giving her a sore back.
Is there any way to fix the brake, or do I need to replace the whole unit?
I know this video is kinda old but so is the dc05 and i still have one., so how do i fix the cord retracts even when i don't push the button?
If the unit does not come apart so that one can repair it, is it possible to replace the old wire with new and if so what length will it take.
Hi. Any idea how the cord reel comes to bits? Mine is all in working order but I think the neutral wire is broken where it comes out of the drum so I want to pull a foot of wire through to get rid of the bad bit but the drum won't easily come apart. any thoughts?
Hi there,
Did I see right, the filter at the bottom isn't the hepa one you're showing in the other video to the dc05? I've got this model with the yellow colours, I haven't replaced the filter yet and would be interested in what I will have to get for it. Would a hepa work?
Thank you.
Yes but make sure the HEPA caddy has the low height central external bit (the taller thumb lift ones will foul the casing)
hi my dc05 the seems to going into the washable filter and not much in the bin
hey how do i fix it so my cord retracks on my accord cyclonic vacuum
Half the time it is so I reckon you have a decent chance of it being an easy fix :)
Hi There,
Unfortunately I am not familiar with teh accord brand so I can't help you :(
Sorry
Hi David, Unfortunately you are out of luck. The Dyson cord reel really isn't meant o be repaired only replaced as a complete unit. I have tried to repair a few over the years but it's never the best repair. Sorry :(
