Why is my Dyson sparking?
On the Dyson ball upright models, if you are getting a burning smell and sparking from the brushbar area, usually this means your brushbar motor has failed. This will require a new brushbar motor, sometimes depending on how badly it has failed it may take out the PCB or reset switch as well.

Where is the reset button on Dyson DC14?

Can my vacuum catch on fire?
It’s unlikely to randomly catch fire. If it drew a large amount of current, the breaker would pop, and I assume you don’t go out and leave it running unsupervised.

Why isn’t the brush spinning on my Dyson?
Replacing the Brush Belt If the brush is jammed, the belt may snap. Once it does, your vacuum’s brush will stop spinning altogether, resulting in the “Dyson brush bar not spinning” fault. To get the Dyson to work again, you will have to replace the belt.

Why does my Dyson vacuum smell like it’s burning?
On the Dyson ball upright models, if you are getting a burning smell and sparking from the brushbar area, usually this means your brushbar motor has failed.

What is wrong with my Dyson DC25 motor?
This does not necessarily mean it is your brushbar motor though, it could quite easily be the wiring harness or the PCB. The wiring harness (Yoke loom assembly as Dyson call it) on the DC25 and DC40 is a common fault and normally the first thing I look at.
