- Welcome to Dyson DC24 Week here on Beko1987! A whole week, where we take apart and refurbish and re-assemble a Dyson DC24, the first of the small ball upright vacuum cleaners from Dyson.
In this first video, we need to take our usual first look at the machine before we get started, and see what is wrong with it, and what it needs done to it.
Stay tuned for tomorrow as we start to dis-assemble it - • Dyson DC24 Week! Day T...

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! i just unclogged my Dyson with your help.
Thank you for this video. You have saved me from throwing away a perfectly good vac. There seemed to be lots of things wrong with it and I would never have thought of a simple blockage in that pipe!
Breaking it into segments sounds great.
That's the greatest sounding klaxon siren ever! 👍 Oh wait, it's not supposed the do that. 😂😂😂
😂👍
Thanks 🙏🏼
Hey Sam what cycle do you use to clean the hose in the washing machine..... thank you 😊
Bog standard cotton wash
Any ideas on the lowest flex pipe that has splits in from the repatition of bending?
Either tape it up or go on ebay and buy a new one, they shouldn't cost much
Did someone put a drill motor in that??
What’s the best dyson in terms of durability?
Hi Sam! Thanks for the great videos on the DC24. I found one and your videos are extremely helpful in helping me make ti usable again.
I hope you can answer a question about an issue on this unit. You know the small "flap" at the rear which closes to cover the the hose hole below the hose which switches path? Depending on whether the vac is upright for wand-use or reclined for floor use?
When upright, the flap doesn't quite close the hole entirely at the "open mouth" end. Naturally this causes much suction power to be lost at tip of the wand since there now is a "leak"
Have you ever seen this? If so, what's causing this and how can I repair it? Cheers!
My auntie has this exact model of DC24. I hope she hasn't used it for DIY as they recently had a new kitchen. Perhaps the builders must've brought their own vacuum. Which is what I would've done.
How do I put that tool on
Hello, i have a dysonball DC24. I have made a terrible mistake... I vacuumed a lot of plaster dust. I cleaned it well and it still works just as well but it makes a terrible noise, the same as on your video. Do I have to change the engine?
It may carry on for a while yet but yes, the plaster dust has got into the fan or bearings. Got an airline? That might get some of it out
@@beko1987 it is far too late for this, there is yars it is working like this (you can believe this! :)) "the plaster dust has got into the fan or bearings" does it mean in the engine? In that case would not be possile to change the engine (motor) ?
i have found a knew ball on ebay (the orange one with the engine of course) 75€ with the delivery to Paris from England et duty taxes... . But to change it on my... it seems to be quite complicated...
Are those motors dyson ones then cuz I thought they used Panasonic ones for a while?
They did, I've had many 24s and 25s with the Panasonic in
I like your videos 👍
I had one like that
I'm more surprised when I get a 24 that doesn't sound like this lol
Ouch can tell the motor has had a very hard time
Your videos, a bit scattered and filmed in a scattered way, have helped me. You cannot possibly know the *detail and explanation* I desire, have still been amazingly helpful.
(You go a bit "fast and experienced" for my taste.)
But I am grateful. So far you have helped me restore a curbside DC24 - but I have three long screws left over... Yikes!
Glad to be of help David! The dc24 videos are in order on the playlist, watching them from there might help. Also the speed is faster than I'd like, but it's the balance between getting the knowledge across and it not taking 5 hours! Hit pause every now and again to catch up. Ooooh 3 screws... Could be very important, could be fine...
Nice video
Thanks! Stay tuned over the next 6 days!
Ok
That motor on the DieSoon DC24 is definitely about to die soon! Very soon indeed. I am also amazed the brushroll motor still works, it should have died long before now, as the DC24 was renowned for brushroll motor failure.
Would you say the dc25s are more reliable? Is the brush bar motor & main motor any different?
@@hugohenderson1788 There have been more reports of the DC24 brushroll motors failing, but the DC25 does have the issue as well, just not seemingly as common. The motors used are tiny brushed motors with only a relatively short lifetime of something like 50 hours. The carbon brushes are short which contributes to the demise of the motor long before the suction motor fails. Suction motors are more likely to fail from overheating or bearing failure. With the heads on the DC15, dc24 and DC25 being articulated on a yoke, they need a yoke wiring loom leading from the main body to the motor in the powerhead, and this loom also had issues where the wiring broke internally due to the constant flexing and movement inflicted on it due to the design of the powerhead and the way it moves relative to the main housing of the ball. Powerheads could also stop working due to the brushroll bearings getting fouled up and seizing, or other problems stopping the brushroll from turning. So the issue with powerheads not working is not always the same problem from one machine to another, but the weak and short lived brushroll motors did not help.
@@stevejones1972 That's interesting. I picked up a Dc50 that had a seized bearing on the brush bar motor. I eventually managed to loosen it with lots of force & Wd-40. When unjamming a bearing it never seems to run as smoothly as replacing with a brand new bearing.
@@hugohenderson1788 The DC50 uses a different kind of setup for the brushroll compared to the earlier DC24, where the motor is actually inside the brushroll itself, and this is the way they do all the new Dysons now, such as the Light Ball, Ball Animal 2, and also including the cordless models like the V7, V8, V10, V11. You have to make sure the brushroll end bearings are kept clean, much the same way as before, as the bearing housings are magnets for dust, hair and other debris which can build up and cause the brushroll to stall, but the motor seems to be affected less on these, as its own bearings are protected better than the bearings on the brushroll itself.
The Johnstone motors in the 24 and 25 only have a finite shelf life of 60 hours (I found the spec sheet once). Of course now their getting old most are way over that and falling over left right and centre. I was surprised the brushroll motor worked, but then I refurbished it a year or so prior to this so probably saved it's life then. It's still going too
Dyson always serm to break by a numatic henry never look back
Dysons are not good at any of those things! 😆
Yuck. Question is, why buy a dyson in the first place.
god that sounds awful
Yep! They can't take even mild abuse, let alone full on builder use
