- Bought this snow blower at the end of November and it has completely stopped working after 3 uses. I received a new unit from Ryobi but it appears as though the lever to set the speed has been damaged in transit.

I've had a great experience with all my ryobi equipment. My lawn mower had same problem. It handle folds for storage. When you put it in lock position to mow , then the lock pops out then it will not run unless you lock it in position again. It does the same thing your snow blower is doing. It's probably a simple fix
That's why i buy with my Home Depot card, i have 1 years for returns
Possible issue with static discharge of dry snow rubbing against the plastic causing a short.
I just bought one BEFORE watching this video… wish me luck this winter. Worse case, if Ryobi can’t help me with a failure, I’ll dissect the thing myself and get to the bottom of the problem.
How did yours work out for you?
@@shawnrsingh Being in a Chicago suburb, we've been getting a lot of snow lately, it's been working pretty well for me, actually. Clears slush, clears snow, just a bit hard to push on the tougher stuff. Otherwise, I like it!
I hope you have good luck. I am on my Second 40v Ryobi snowblower and both of them only worked twice . I am trying to get this one replaced since it is over the 90 day warranty. Ryobi is wanting me to take it to a repair shop that is 400 miles round trip for repair. But when I called the repair shop they don’t work on the electric snowblower 😢
That's crazy! How did it turn out for you?
@@shawnrsingh I did get the snowblower repaired and it was the main controller that was bad. Ryobi covered the expenses and I have used it 4 times this year so far with no issues.
Well, how did this end? Did you ever end up with a 'perfect' working unit?
I was able to use the replacement blower and didn't have any further issues for the remainder of winter.
@@shawnrsingh thx
At 3:55, have you been able to figure out whats wrong with it? I received one from a friend (brand new because his switch was broken and they sent him a new one). I made one round in my driveway and stopped it and it is making that noise and won't run. I can't return it because I didn't buy it. 😞
I haven't tried to fix it yet, but one viewer in the comments indicated that they had to get the motor controller replaced. They were in a similar situation as you and had to pay to get it fixed.
Rayoobi is made in Chiner. What about Toro 60 volt snow blower? Made in Chiner as well?
Not too sure, I'll have to look into that
My snowblower did the same thing couple of days ago, it wouldn’t start just like in this video. I am stuck with piles of snow on sidewalk and driveway. I don’t know how it’s gonna work I am out of Home Depot’s return window. Ryobi is proving to be trash and this particular trim is not cheap.
If you still have the receipt go to ryobi's website and register the snow blower and at least you might be able to get a replacement snow blower or get yours fixed so it's not a complete waste of money. You will have to go through the warranty process which involves contacting them telling them what the problem is and then they will advise you what the remedy is. It's such a big disappointment when you spend all this money to get this tool that's supposed to help you with your snowfall and when the snow will finally comes it fails.
@@shawnrsingh thank you I will do it. But at this point even if I get a replacement I doubt it if it’s gonna work because there is something that is wrong with the motor in it. Mine is new I have only used it twice on snow last year and it’s out. Hopefully they will recover all of this model snow blower. We shouldn’t be paying for their failure in research@Ryobiusa
hello my friend I have one of the same snowblower on the same thing happen to mine
my problem was someone selling it on Marketplace not knowingly they already returned it and put it for sale
so I have to call a third party and get the controller to get it fixed 1 was so mad for people being so dishonest
problem with it is the motor controller just built it to the motor controller
that is the problem and it's something that you cannot buy because Ryobi don't carry it or they don't sell it
they will send you to a third-party shop to get it fixed and most likely will not get fixed
because you're out of warranty why you think it's only have a 3 year limited warranty
unlike Ridgid have a lifetime warranty same company different brand built
Sorry to hear that you had to go through that! I wish sometimes that I had gone with my guy and purchased the Ego snowblower in the first place. Thanks for sharing your experience.
@@shawnrsingh
thanks very much appreciate that
this snow blower is a good snow blower but the problem is that the motor controller is very weak so it failed
and you cannot buy second-hand one from someone you have be the rightful owner
so if you buy it from someone you cannot get it to replace if for some reason something goes wrong Ryobi will not replace it without the receipt
thanks very much wish everyone a happy NO snow year LOL all the best your Ryobi S/B
I had one and the same happened to me but there is a recall I also bought it in november and they refund me two week ago
how were you able to learn about the recall?
So far the replacement that Ryobi sent has worked well through 4 or 5 snowfalls.
@@shawnrsingh It is at home depot that I found out that there was a Recall that is the reason they refund me because they did not have a replacement for me so I took the refund and bought a Toro 60V and I'm very satisfy with the Toro it works really good
Same prob for me
easy fix trash curb along with the new broken one
There is a easy fix for this problem and it only takes a zip tie.
Please explain more
Short answer: Ryobi yard tools are garbage.
Long answer: it sounds like your brushless motor has a sensor issue, where the esc thinks the motor is at a certain position when in reality it's not, which causes it to power the wrong wire to get it started. The timing is off
Thanks for the info!
I starting to think that Ryobi sells trash
no, this was a bad run.
