- How to replace the hose on the Dyson DC17 series vacuum cleaners. Works for DC17 Animal, DC17 Absolute or any other DC17 models. Covers DC17 disassembly, prying hose pieces apart and reassembly.
I was able to replace my hose in less than 30 minutes wathcning your video. Now I hope my Dyson can last another 15+ years. Thank you so much for posting this!!!
Thank you. Couldn't get the wand back down because there was pencil stuck at the bottom of the hose. This was the only video I could find that showed me how to remove the hose on my model. Feels great to get it fixed.
Thanks! Bonus tip: I found the top part/attachment will actually slide through the bottom opening without prying anything apart, making process even easier.
I can't believe it, but I replaced the vacuum hose. This video was instrumental in assisting me; and, I thank you very much!
This helped a lot. I would have gotten it done but it would have taken me a lot longer. Yur instructions saved me time for sure. Thanks for the detailed explanation.
Seconding what Mike P said. If you simply take off the canister, the hose will slide out without having to pry anything off the end of the new or old hoses. I replaced mine with in about 2 minutes with an aftermarket purchase from amazon.
Exactly!!
great job at describing and video taping the entire procedure. it took less than 10 minutes to do the entire hose switch. thank you and keep up putting video that can help others.
THANK YOU, THAN YOU, THANK YOU!!! This really did help me a great deal. Personally I think you should win some kind of award for this.
And here I am 50 minutes later, repair completed! I cannot thank you enough, you saved me big bucks as I was going to take it to a repair shop next. :)

The hardest part was prying off those caps. Very descriptive video. Thanks
Followed the instructions which worked well. Thank you. However there are a few changes I would make:
1) See the comment from Mike Parker below on the easier method.
2) If you follow the method in the video, at 1:07 I would approach the little black tabs from the top of the machine rather than the bottom. Pushing them in and down while pulling on the black part of the hose rather than prying the plastic. This would avoid potentially breaking a plastic piece that would be hard to replace.
3) At 1:44 after removing the hard plastic piece as shown I would just use your fingers to pinch the pliable plastic from one side to the other to then pull and work the little black plastic tab out of the cutout. Perform this on both sides. My replacement hose came with a new hard plastic and soft plastic pieces, so I had to remove the pieces but you don't want to potentially use a screwdriver or other sharp tool that might puncture you brand new hose.
Note: You can do a temporary repair on your hose using light weight flexible duct tape to wrap over the holes if they are not too big. This works for awhile, but eventually the wand gets stuck on the tape and it's a pain to get it to slide back in the "repaired" hose.
Question: At 2:05 does someone fart in the video? Just wondering.
RK Endsley lol His son farted I think, at least it sounded like one hahaha. Phew, a relief from his kid.
Excellent video. Replaced mine thanks to you in less than 15 mins
I didn't have to remove anything on the bottom except the trap. The top part can pull through it. No prying anything off anything on the new hose!
Agreed. I did not need to remove the top part. Pushed right through.
There is a much easier way. Just take the canister off open the washable filter compartment. then there is enough room for the hose to slid down and out the bottom without taking it apart.. I bought a replacement part from Dyson. Came with instructions.
I checked before doing the repair as described in the video and my DC 17 Animal doesn't have a way to get the hose through that compartment. Maybe on certain ones can do that.
Way simpler!!!! Thank you!
@@talesia They all have it...DC17's are all built the same. There's very few things on a Dyson that require the sort of brute force you show....LOL.
@@LeeKeels I dont have any videos to show anything...
Thank you thank you THANK YOU!!! The disinformation on this is freaking unreal.
I didn't remember going through this craziness the last time I replaced the hose, but was beginning to doubt myself & wondering if I was taking crazy pills.
There are a couple keys here:
1) the filter cap needs to be flipped up
2) if half a roll of duct tape has found it's way onto the wand end of the hose, you need to remove it
3) don't be afraid of using a little muscle b/c odds are the hose you're removing is junk
4a) if you think you're overdoing it or you have adhesive residue from duct tape, a shot of WD-40 or cooking oil will make things go much more smoothly
4b) pretty sure all of the components won't be affected by silicone lubricant such as WD-40, but to minimize any possible risk & mess, spray the lubricant onto a rag/paper towel & wipe the wand end & the interior of the flared collar at the bottom of the vacuum
4c) to further mitigate risk & mess, clean any lubricated parts with some rubbing alcohol the moment you get the wand end of the new hose clear of the collar
Scott...Thanks so much for posting this video, it worked like a charm. Took about 6 minutes to put a new hose on my Dyson! You are the man!!!
Thanks! Made everything easier, took me 15 minutes
Thank you - The information was very helpful! I originally was trying to take the cap off the wrong end of the hose, so your video saved me a lot of time and aggravation!
THANK YOU! After searching video after video I finally found one that was not only direct and to the point but told me exactly what I needed to know.... can't thank you enough!
Great Video! I had no idea how to change mine. Glad I came across this.
Thank you Huge Help. I actually didn't take off the cord winding tab like you did the very beginning and it still worked. I would have ruined something without this video.
Thank you so much . Just received my replacement hose today . This helped a lot . Again TY!
Thank you, Scott, for your video. I found it very helpful.
This was a huge help, thank you so much.
Great video, although I didn’t have to remove the collar on the new hose to get it through the hole.
Thanks a lot for this. Really saved me a ton of time and frustration!
Thank you! This saved me a lot of time.
Thank you for posting this video. It was a big help to me!
A great big Mahalo for this video lesson, it was sooooo helpful and .... saved me from hurting myself or tearing the vacuum parts!!!!! Note: on mine, I did not have to remove the hook part at the bottom that the cord wraps around. I cannot believe I did this ~ ~ hooray!!!!! xoxoxo
Thank you for posting this--it was really helpful.
Thanks! I thought I was missing something at first, but apparently you really are supposed to do it this way.
Helped me out with my dc17! Gracias señor
Thanks for posting this video!
Thanks just what I needed!
Thank you so much for your video! I was able to follow your steps perfectly and changed it in 5 min's! I appreciate you taking the time to upload this. I"m sure you saved me alot of frustration! I LOVE YOU TUBE FOR THIS REASON!
thank you for info. have a piece of tile stuck in hose now I know how to get it out
Thanks! just saved me a bunch of time!
Thank you! You made my day.
Thank you!!! Just saved me so much time and prob 1 or 2 additional hoses lol
Many thanks, very useful
Really helpful! Thanks!
Thanks! Very helpful!
I was able to replace my hose tonight with your help. Bless you and many thanks.
This was great! Thanks!!!!
Thank you so much for posting this! I was getting mad and ready to throw my Dyson across the room! Haha
I got my hose and other dyson parts from amazon also 😃
Very helpful!
Thank you very much.👍
Thank YOU!🍎
THANK YOU!
I can't get the handle to release from the vacuum. The wand slides up easily, but seems like there should be a release button to get it to separate from the canine handle. Please help!!!
You da man! Thanks!
Thank You!!
Awesome! Thanks so much, that would have driven me NUTS
You can literally see that the hose would have slid right out if you had just....removed....the.... canister, per the instructions.
Exactly!! It is a snug fit but it does go through without removing the hose connector.
Great video, very helpful. How do I replace the small bottom hose?
I thought the video was awesome! I never would have figured this out. I tried! Thank you so much for posting this it really helped
Thank You!!!!!!
Great video, My Dyson is up and ready to go. Took 10 min. Thanks for the video :o)
thank you! they don't make it intuitive that is for sure!
Thank you for posting this. It convinced me to give it a shot & it worked! Much cheaper and easier, really, than taking it to a vacuum cleaner repair shop.
Repair shop here wanted $40 , I found the hose online for $15
