Introduction

Dyson Cinetic Big Ball Animal Vacuum motor replacement guide.

This guide will explain how to disassemble and replace a new motor in your Dyson Cinetic Big Ball Animal vacuum.

The motor is the piece within the vacuum that allows spinning for collection of dust, dirt, hair, etc.

Signs that may indicate that your vacuum needs a motor replacement:

-brush is no longer spinning

-suction is non existent or relatively weak

-unusual noises

-unusual or unpleasant smell

-vacuum is not picking up particles

    • Press the gray button to release the canister.

  2. rvyYKlDOoCJLjdeV

    • Remove the canister by lifting it out.

  3. mxbpcCBhArxtK2Om

    • Find and remove the four 21.5mm screws on the bottom that hold the base plate on using a T15 Torx bit.

  4. Ic3VcHe1KBY4nUBF

    • Locate and remove the 21mm screws for each wheel on the ball using a T15 Torx bit.

    • Remove Plastic Disc

  5. 4McxSdqLyIEkVian

    • Locate and remove the five 22mm screws on each side of the ball that keep the plastic enclosure together using a T15 Torx bit.

    There is no ifixit screwdriver that could reach some of the T15 screws. so you need a thin long screwdriver to reach some of the screws to remove the cover.

    • Remove the bottom half of the plastic sphere to reveal the motor.

    • Carefully slide the motor out of its housing in the ball.

    • Cut the two wires near the side of the motor using wire cutters.

    Der Schritt, die Kabel zu durchtrennen, ist überhaupt nicht notwendig! Öffnet man die 3 “Plastikschnallen” des Motorgehäuses, findet man sowohl für das weiße als auch für das schwarze Kabel einen kleinen Stecker, der ganz leicht gelöst werden kann. Dementsprechend erübrigt sich das Verlöten und die damit verbundene komplizierte Arbeit. Einfach den alten Motor aus dem Gehäuse nehmen, den neuen einsetzen und die beiden Kabel auf die Steckverbindungen schieben, das war’s.

    • Install the new motor by splicing in the wires.

    • Watch this video by NJprepper321 on how to splice together wires if you are unsure on how to do this.

    • Make sure to match the wires on the motor with the correct wires in the vacuum.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

Basic but correct only mine has spade connectors on the motor so no need to cut and solder wires. The problem I found was that the main inner filter was blocked, probably by cement dust who I am guilty of! I would like to know if this is available as a spare part? I have cleaned it for now but it really needs changing.

This vacuum cleaner is based on the DC52 model. The post motor HEPA filter has the part number 922444-02 and is offered by many spart part vendors in the web. Just google Dyson 922444-02. I have made an instruction on how to replare or clean it.
