Thanks for the video. It took me a while to understand that the vacuum needs to be EXTREMELY clean in order to work properly. It took months of frustration to really get this through my thick skull, but in my defense, no other vacuum I've ever used has been so fickle. My wife and daughter both have long, straight black hair that constantly falls on the floor, in the shower, etc, and it always takes 5 minutes of playing with the vacuum before it works. It's like a minor miracle when it finally turns on, and the entire thing is full of hair, dirt, etc after just a few minutes of use. The filter is the one thing I haven't cleaned recently, so let's give it a try! Thanks for showing the steps.
Thank you, for letting me know to don’t use detergent to clean the filter. I used cold water only to clean it until the water runs clear, then I let the filter dry for 12 hours. Good work.
Hello Cleys. Thank you for your kind comment. Please make sure that the filter is bone dry before you put it back into your Dyson. Even a damp filter can shorten out the motor of your vacuum cleaner. Have a great day. 😀
Thanks had ongoing issues with my V10 filter and the lights. Thought just running tap water though was the instruction as illustrated. Watching your clip revealed vigorous shaking.....the water I used was collected in to a bucket it was very dirty. Now drying for recommended time. Thanks from South Australia.
If you accidentally hit the trigger when you're emptying the bin it cakes the filter in dust just like yours. You can prevent this by loosening the filter before you empty the bin, that disables the motor, and your filter will stay clean for longer.
Thanks for the video Micheal. My filter is now drying. Next, I would like to see a video of you explaining how to use that beard oil that was sitting next to your sink.

Hi Ihave cleaned and washed and dried the filter. The filter is completely clean but I still have the same problem. There is noting blocking in anywhere in the vacuum cleaner. I think I need a new filter . what do think?
Merci pour votre démonstration, c'est bien apprécié. J'ai fait exactement ce que vous montrez et mon aspirateur ne fonctionne toujours pas. Il y a ce même bruit intermittent que vous faites entendre au début de la vidéo pendant quelques secondes (il n'y a aucune aspiration) puis c'est l'arrêt. J'ai tout nettoyé de fond en comble. Lorsque je rebranche l'appareil, les clignotants bleus fonctionnent pendant 3 où 4 secondes puis s'éteignent. Si bien que je ne sais plus si j'ai un problème de filtre à remplacer ou un problème de batterie ou les 2 à la fois. Merci à l'avance de me répondre. Je possède cet aspirateur Dyson V10 animal depuis mars 2019 et mon bonheur aura été de courte durée, un peu plus quand même que ce que dure les roses.
Hello David. Over time dust particles and other microscopic particles can build up in the filter which cannot be removed anymore with washing the filter. This can reduce the performance or lead to a situation like yours. I recommend to replace this filter with a new one. I suggest to get an original Dyson filter and not a no-name filter from Amazon. The filter for the V15 costs around $30 at Dyson.com.
I am sorry, but I gave you the wrong information regarding the Dyson filter. It looks like you own the Dyson V10. Here is the link for an original Dyson V10 replacement filter: www.dyson.com/support/journey/spare-details.969082-01?+v10+replacement+filter&gclsrc=aw.ds&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI08z6_7Sp8QIVsxx9Ch0kNAbSEAAYBCAAEgJ4V_D_BwE
Did you pull the trigger while emptying? This would make the dust bypass the cyclones which is supposed to keep the filter clean. It’s been over a month since I had my V11and the filter still looks good.
Hi. thank you for the explanation. However my dyson v10 gets a lot of dust(hair, dust etc.) on its filter EVEN AFTER ONE USE! Dust gets far a lot than when I used it initially. the service center doesn’t know the reason and repeats saying it’s totally normal. What do you think is the problem????? Help me~!!!!😭
Hello! If you press the trigger in when the bin is open or when you are emptying it press the trigger, the filter will fill up with dust immediately. You need to not press the trigger at all or turn on when the bin is open.
You are very welcome and thank you for your comment. Here on RUclips are thousands of channels which show you the exact same thing I do but maybe even without superfluous information. I suggest that you look from now on on other channels. 👎
Thanks so much - this is precisely the problem I've been having in the last couple of days! Will not follow your instructions and hopefully all will be back to normal.
Sorry, but I followed your cleaning instructions to the Letter on my V10, still pulsing, still showing a blockage, there is no other way inside to see if there’s a blockage , I even went to the length of buying another filter, still same result!, I had a Vax Cyclone before this for six years, never put a foot wrong, no filter to wash, had ten meters of flex, could Hoover the House from top to bottom from one plug in point!, I bought this Dyson V10 on merit, supposed to be so efficient, and it was, but this pulsing should’ve been easier to sort, and indeed on the one you showed us your solution worked, well, not mine, I’ve done all I can short of taking it to bits which I don’t want to do, sorry Dyson, your V10 has let me down. If it had been simpler to clean internally it would’ve been perfect, im thinking of going back to a Vax , a corded Vax even, I liked the Dyson, but this has dented my faith it.🤥
My filter has never looked that bad but my Dyson stinks to high heaven. I’ve washed it dozens of times, even with dish washing liquid, dried it completely and...it still stinks. ☹️
@@macarenam2069 Stupid cow. Go away. The problem has been solved with just water and properly shaking the filter instead of just running water through it.
Please check my playlist with all the Dyson tutorials. Maybe one of the videos can help you: ruclips.net/p/PLp8bdVJdiaQOPeGU2lC5fXhfmSuZxqaJe&jct=ZwjF21k3MQ0tDVL-lvbovwaoxqys3A 😀👍
How often do you need to completely change the whole filter please? I have 2 and even if I fit in a completely clean one it gives me that sign after a while. What am I doing wrong?
hello this is mr woopnik's wife, my husband passed away last november but i believe can answer your question, if its giving you an error message even if its already cleaned that means you are going to have to buy a new one
Hi there 🙏. Can you please guide me that how frequently I should clean the filter? Two months back I bought it ...First month it worked very good...I washed the filter n after that after every cleaning it shows the filter indicator. It is so annoying. 😭 don’t know what to do. 😔 N what will happen if we keep using it. even after the filter indicator is on. Thank you 🙏
Hello Sakshi. Sorry to hear that your Dyson is not behaving well. Before I can help you I need to ask you a few questions. Which Dyson V10 do you own? Where you live is it hot and sandy like in a desert or rather moist with lots of water? Do you use your Dyson mostly on carpet or mostly on hardwood floor? Have you tried to replace the filter? I would definitely not wash the filter after every cleaning. For my videos I keep my filter on the dirty side, but even then the filter indicator does not come on. I will get back to you. Greetings from Los Angeles 😀
Woopnik 🙏 Hi again. I m from India 🇮🇳.....Uttarakhand state. I have V10 absolute. I use it maximum for my mattress n carving of the Bed n sofa. Sometimes for Marble flooring..
Hello Sakshi. The problem you have is hard to crack. Do you remember exactly when this behavior started? And do you remember what the last material was you cleaned up with your Dyson before the problem started? Lift the brush bar out and clean of hairs/carpet strands etc. Then you may find the brush housing clogged as well. Please clean thoroughly. Also check the cyclone. I would have to look to give a definite answer or check with Dyson. Please let me know.
Hello Sakshi. I hope you are well. Would you like to go on troubleshooting your Dyson? If you want please contact me. I am sure that we will find a solution. 😀
Sounds like you didn't let the filter dry completely. Try cleaning it again and leave it drying for more than 2 hours. (I had the same thing happen but now it works fine again)
Yes, you may use a hair dryer. You have to be very careful not to scorch the filter. Set the hair dryer on the "Low" setting and plug in the dryer power cord, if you need to vacuum sooner than 24 hours. Hold the filter four inches away from the dryer and blow dry the filter. Continue moving the blow dryer back and forth over the filter to prevent scorching the filter. Turn the filter over and dry the other side in the same manner. Dry the filter housing in the same manner as the filter. Do not put the filter and housing into the Dyson vacuum until they are completely dry. I hope that I was able to help. Have a great day. 😀👍
just found out my V11 animal, has 4 slots on the 2 filter sections if you pull them apart>>>, 2 larger>>>, 2 smaller, when you pull them apart. You must line them up and click in,,, only then can you put the filter back on clockwise!!!!!!!
so I put my filter back in after washing it 24 hours before, and didn't even think to check that it was dry, had a blonde moment, it wasn't soaking wet but it was damp and the vacuum cleaner just stopped powering. Am now drying the filter thoroughly but I'm worried I might have damaged the motor. any suggestions
Takes filter out at 1:50. Actually starts cleaning at 2:26. Consider your audience people, stuff like this people aren’t trying to get to know you, they just want you to get to the point. Its a vacuum filter, get in with it.
My dyson v10 is fully charged, but will not start to suction, when you press the power button, you can hear a few click noises but nothing happens😔 any idea whats causing this?
Hello and Good Morning Margo. Is the filter clean? If you washed the filter before, was the filter really bone dry as you reinstalled it into the vacuum cleaner?
I see. Have you tried to turn on the vacuum cleaner without any attachments? This kind of noise usually only happens when something is obstructing the brush bar. Removing the obstruction, like a sock or paperclip from the brushbar will usually get it working again. If you remove the obstruction and it still makes this noise, then turn off your Dyson and try turning the brushbar by hand. It should be quite loose, if not remove the brushbar and clean it.
I washed it and put the filter on while it was wet and now it won’t work. When I press the trigger the battery symbol comes on. But I still have the warranty
Place the filter and the filter housing on a flat surface in a warm area. Allow the filter and housing to dry. Don’t dry the filter in a tumble dryer, microwave or near a naked flame. I hope that this is of any help for you. Have a great weekend. 😀
Had the same problem. Simple solution is to buy another filter from Amazon.com. Now I can use my vacuum for weeks while the other one is drying. Then, when that filter gets dirty, I wash it and swap in the original filter, which has been drying for weeks. Simply repeat again and again.... No downtime!
This will only happen if you press the trigger in when the bin is open. If you do this, all the dust inside the cyclone will transfer onto the filter immediately.
Sir I washed n dried my v10 filter n now it stinks Iam so upset wat should be done I couldn’t understand by wat u said to put dryer sheets. For 5 mins ....plz kindly explain me Iam very depressed
Hello Ne An. Yes, this can happen. The Dyson just stinks. Did you wait at least 24h after washing the filter to let it dry completly? If you do then you could also try to put a dryer sheet with a fragrance of your choice and let it run 5-10 mins in the empty bin. You can also try to put two drops of eucalyptus oil on each of the filters. That way, when the vacuum is running, it will produce a pleasant smell. Washing the interior of the dust bin with white vinegar is also a fantastic way to deodorize the Dyson, and it can even work as a disinfectant. I hope I was able to help you. Let me know if you succeeded getting rid of the smell. Have a good night 😴🌙💤
Sir I don’t own a dryer I jus have a washing machine Can I use a hair dryer? Plz helps also waited for 24 hours before using but in vain Iam going crazy as bcoz of the stink Iam not able to use my dyson since a week
Hi. I had the same problem. I cleaned the filter by just dusting off the dirt. I didn't want to wash it because i couldn't wait 24 hours. It worked fine but now it won't turn on at all. The battery is charged, but nothing happens when i press the trigger. Could this be caused by the filter too?
Woopnik As a result I bought a second filter so that I can always keep vacuuming. Even 24 hrs is too long to have it out of commission. They should really be sold with 2 from the beginning.
Hello Souad. I think you said that you washed your filter but did not let it dry for at least 24 hours. And now the Dyson does not work anymore. Is that right? Did the vacuum work before you washed the filter?
When you press the trigger are the battery Icons all light up blue? If yes, for how long? For a split second and then go dark? Or does the blue light stay on while pressing the trigger? Does it still charge when plugged in?
You are very welcome. Trying to help every way I can. If you could just subscribe to my channel if you like to support me making many more “how to videos”. Greetings from Los Angeles. 😀

I cleaned mine and put it right back in after I washed it. I squeeze as much water out as I could. I turned it on after it stoped working now the battery just flashes. Did I ruin it or will it work if I let it dry?
For all those who get a blockage light on the vacuum despite no clogging...the best way to fix it is to twist off the filter ....hit it hard against anything (I usually use the edge of the vacuum handle) keep hitting it and rotate it while u hit it....then u will see dust fall out of the filter then...put filter back on....vacuum should be perfect....
@@amandadsouza3767 yes, it must be washed. The best thing to do is buy 2 extra filters from Amazon so when u wash one and let it dry u can use the other ones
Can anyone tell me? Why after I washed my filter and letting it dry thoroughly, it stinks! Like dogs. 😭 How do I get the smell out???? I dump the container after every single use.
Brandy, hello. Thanks for watching my Dyson video. Yes, I have once and a while the same problem. This stink just makes me sick. How to combat the stink? Put dryer sheets in the clear plastic bin and let it run for about 5-10 mins, make sure the bin is clear of all debris first. I did it and it worked. Not only is the smell gone, the dryer sheets removed all the remaining dust stuck in the bin. Try it out. It will make your Dyson nice smelling.
Ur actually suppised to wash it as it dissolves the microorganisms and diet that compressed air doesnt. Flooding the filters with water also removes any particular matter that might cause smells
Tim Connell The reason the filter can get that dirty on the V10 is because the machine can still be turned on by mistake while the bin is being emptied. When the bin is open, the seals are obviously not in place and any dirt left in the cyclones and or ducting will just get sucked straight through the cyclones and straight onto the filter. With the machine in the usual operating set up, the filter won’t get dirty like that because the cyclones are operating correctly. A flaw with the V10. I think this was addressed on the V11.
This video is wonderful. But I almost wept to see the tap running like this. This man does not rely on rainwater for his water supply. He could use a bucket or ten and put it on the veges. Or flush with it. Or pour it anywhere but down the drain.

Thanks for the video. It took me a while to understand that the vacuum needs to be EXTREMELY clean in order to work properly. It took months of frustration to really get this through my thick skull, but in my defense, no other vacuum I've ever used has been so fickle.
My wife and daughter both have long, straight black hair that constantly falls on the floor, in the shower, etc, and it always takes 5 minutes of playing with the vacuum before it works.

Am now drying the filter thoroughly but I'm worried I might have damaged the motor. any suggestions
Hello Tracy. Did water come out of the motor vents?
it is a V10 I didn't see anything coming out of the motor vents, where should I be looking
Good. If you just put a damp filter into your V10 I don’t think that you damaged anything. Only the performance will suffer. You should be fine 😀👍
thank you for your help, much appreciated
You are very welcome. Have a wonderful day. 😀
Takes filter out at 1:50.
Actually starts cleaning at 2:26.
Consider your audience people, stuff like this people aren’t trying to get to know you, they just want you to get to the point. Its a vacuum filter, get in with it.
well dont worry about it now, this is mr woopniks wife he passed away last november so he wont be bothering you with this anymore
My dyson v10 is fully charged, but will not start to suction, when you press the power button, you can hear a few click noises but nothing happens😔 any idea whats causing this?
Hello and Good Morning Margo. Is the filter clean? If you washed the filter before, was the filter really bone dry as you reinstalled it into the vacuum cleaner?
@@Woopnik yes I cleaned it and indeed it was really dry, but it didnt work unfortunately
Before you cleaned the filter, was the vacuum cleaner working?
@@Woopnik no it wasnt, the filter was a last resort option.
I see. Have you tried to turn on the vacuum cleaner without any attachments? This kind of noise usually only happens when something is obstructing the brush bar. Removing the obstruction, like a sock or paperclip from the brushbar will usually get it working again. If you remove the obstruction and it still makes this noise, then turn off your Dyson and try turning the brushbar by hand. It should be quite loose, if not remove the brushbar and clean it.
Because there’s no nicer day than Christmas to wash a dirty vacuum cleaner filter?
Exactly 😅😂🤣
Is there any way you can fix it at home if you put the filter on wet
Would you please let me know more about the problem especially.
I washed it and put the filter on while it was wet and now it won’t work. When I press the trigger the battery symbol comes on. But I still have the warranty
I can notice When I showed a video in my v 11 Screen When my v11 Clogs
I waited 72 hrs and it is still wet. Is there a quicker way to get it to dry? I need my vacuum
Place the filter and the filter housing on a flat surface in a warm area. Allow the filter and housing to dry. Don’t dry the filter in a tumble dryer, microwave or near a naked flame. I hope that this is of any help for you. Have a great weekend. 😀
Had the same problem. Simple solution is to buy another filter from Amazon.com. Now I can use my vacuum for weeks while the other one is drying. Then, when that filter gets dirty, I wash it and swap in the original filter, which has been drying for weeks. Simply repeat again and again.... No downtime!
Very good idea. I should have come up with that. Thanks for your comment, I really appreciate it. 😀👍
@@Woopnik I use my hair dryer to speed up the drying, just don't over do it
Thanks for your comment. Yep, you have to be careful doing that.
You used it the wing easy and bleeding the company for the issue. Not tilt the vaccum upside down while collecting lots of fine dust particles.

Wow it’s work for me thankyou so much❤️
Hello jia. You are very welcome. Have a great day. 😀
Thank you so much! ❤
Very helpful.
Thanks Martin. I appreciate your comment. Have a great evening 😀👍
My filter is getting clogged like that after 2 uses these days. Something broke 🙄
This will only happen if you press the trigger in when the bin is open. If you do this, all the dust inside the cyclone will transfer onto the filter immediately.
Sir I washed n dried my v10 filter n now it stinks Iam so upset wat should be done I couldn’t understand by wat u said to put dryer sheets. For 5 mins ....plz kindly explain me Iam very depressed
Hello Ne An. Yes, this can happen. The Dyson just stinks. Did you wait at least 24h after washing the filter to let it dry completly? If you do then you could also try to put a dryer sheet with a fragrance of your choice and let it run 5-10 mins in the empty bin. You can also try to put two drops of eucalyptus oil on each of the filters. That way, when the vacuum is running, it will produce a pleasant smell. Washing the interior of the dust bin with white vinegar is also a fantastic way to deodorize the Dyson, and it can even work as a disinfectant. I hope I was able to help you. Let me know if you succeeded getting rid of the smell. Have a good night 😴🌙💤
Sir I don’t own a dryer I jus have a washing machine
Can I use a hair dryer?
Plz helps also waited for 24 hours before using but in vain
Iam going crazy as bcoz of the stink Iam not able to use my dyson since a week
@@nean8160 yes, you can use a hairdryer, but on low heat and about 4 inches distance so filter doesn't burn.
Thank you for this really necessary and clear information
Put filter in wrong way- cannot get it out - any suggestions?
Hello Elizabeth. How did you put in the filter the wrong way?
Hi. I had the same problem. I cleaned the filter by just dusting off the dirt. I didn't want to wash it because i couldn't wait 24 hours. It worked fine but now it won't turn on at all. The battery is charged, but nothing happens when i press the trigger. Could this be caused by the filter too?
I often find that 24hrs isn't enough. 2 days is better.
Hello Will. You are right. After 48 hours the filter should be really “bone” dry. Have a great Sunday.
Woopnik As a result I bought a second filter so that I can always keep vacuuming. Even 24 hrs is too long to have it out of commission. They should really be sold with 2 from the beginning.
I agree with you. Thank you for sharing. 😀👍
I clean my filter well and I tried to dry it but not 24hours and it didn’t work what to do
Hello Souad. I think you said that you washed your filter but did not let it dry for at least 24 hours. And now the Dyson does not work anymore. Is that right? Did the vacuum work before you washed the filter?
Yes It was working very well an then suddenly it stopped working
Actually I Dried it
When you press the trigger are the battery Icons all light up blue? If yes, for how long? For a split second and then go dark? Or does the blue light stay on while pressing the trigger? Does it still charge when plugged in?
Would be nice if Dyson gave you a spare Filter when your washing the other, because when you are, you can’t use your Dyson!
well you should only need to vacuum once or twice a week not every single day
Merry Christmas two years later! :-D
🥳👍
Why my vacuum also canot working
I use dawn soap and a garden hose to wash my filters. It can get a filter from filthy and clogged to white and clean. In less than 10 minutes.
Thank you for sharing. Always appreciated. 😀
Great item!
My dyson v11 on trigger not working, can you help?

You need to dry it first very important oh lol you just said it for me
I cleaned mine and put it right back in after I washed it. I squeeze as much water out as I could. I turned it on after it stoped working now the battery just flashes. Did I ruin it or will it work if I let it dry?
Tamas Balint
I did the same thing 🥺
@@tamasbalint7656 lol..............Whats wrong with you! It needs to be dry first your fool............now the machine will be ruined!!
@@bigfootswatching9986 actually it worked 3 days later thankfully, But yea I am a fool 😂 I tought it wouldnt get in touch with any electrical things.
@@tamasbalint7656 lol..................Glad to hear it still works..........Ya Fool! lol.....j/k .
Thanks you.

Oh my god, the water is running!
The channels owner died few months ago. RIP
Can I dry it in the sun please?!
Absolutely, sun drying is good. I use my hairdryer, but dry it with a surten distance and low heat.
Thanks very helpful!
my filter does this even after it is cleaned .
Very clear explanation thanks a million.
Of note these filters are actually inexpensive though I would caution to use genuine parts.
Hello SINY Finest. I agree with you. Have a good night 😴 💤 😀👍
sehr gut...
😀👍
Thank you, very useful information.
Thank you for sharing!
There Is a clogged sink in the making
lol............Yes he needs to rinse it outside with a hose or in the bathtub with the catcher!
For all those who get a blockage light on the vacuum despite no clogging...the best way to fix it is to twist off the filter ....hit it hard against anything (I usually use the edge of the vacuum handle) keep hitting it and rotate it while u hit it....then u will see dust fall out of the filter then...put filter back on....vacuum should be perfect....
Yes, but you should wash your filter. I wash mine every month.
@@amandadsouza3767 yes, it must be washed. The best thing to do is buy 2 extra filters from Amazon so when u wash one and let it dry u can use the other ones
Hello Vik S. Thanks for your comment. This is a good idea to buy 2 extra filters. Have a great weekend and stay cool. 😀
@@Woopnik same to you😃
😀👍
Don't put you hepa filter back in wet. You will have to get it repaired. FYI.
Can anyone tell me? Why after I washed my filter and letting it dry thoroughly, it stinks! Like dogs. 😭
How do I get the smell out????
I dump the container after every single use.
Brandy, hello. Thanks for watching my Dyson video. Yes, I have once and a while the same problem. This stink just makes me sick. How to combat the stink? Put dryer sheets in the clear plastic bin and let it run for about 5-10 mins, make sure the bin is clear of all debris first. I did it and it worked. Not only is the smell gone, the dryer sheets removed all the remaining dust stuck in the bin. Try it out. It will make your Dyson nice smelling.
@@Woopnik Thank you so much!!! I will try this TODAY, and let you know how it goes!
@@houseofzubias9443 Soooo..... how did you make out ???
@@Woopnik ---> Dryer sheets.... awesome suggestion... 😀👍
@@Ducati_Dude Hello, unfortunately it helped but didn't work completely. Baking soda did the trick!
I use my air compressor to clean filters like this. They’re spotless and need no drying time.
Ur actually suppised to wash it as it dissolves the microorganisms and diet that compressed air doesnt. Flooding the filters with water also removes any particular matter that might cause smells
Your only making it worse you fool!
Mr dark man LMFAO STFU you idiot!
Good video.. but yo, close the water bro ! You wasting water ;)
The cyclones should do most of the filtering. Not sold on the cordless cleaners.
Interesting. I did not know that.
Tim Connell The reason the filter can get that dirty on the V10 is because the machine can still be turned on by mistake while the bin is being emptied. When the bin is open, the seals are obviously not in place and any dirt left in the cyclones and or ducting will just get sucked straight through the cyclones and straight onto the filter. With the machine in the usual operating set up, the filter won’t get dirty like that because the cyclones are operating correctly. A flaw with the V10. I think this was addressed on the V11.
So that's why my zinc was so dirty 😏
Sorry ... 😳
This video is wonderful. But I almost wept to see the tap running like this. This man does not rely on rainwater for his water supply. He could use a bucket or ten and put it on the veges. Or flush with it. Or pour it anywhere but down the drain.
DO NOT USE DISHSOAP! I did and it clogged the HEPA filter, ruined the filter.
Thanks... good to know... ✔
Shit I wish I saw this comment five minutes earlier before I washed it 😓😂
