Slot the brushroll housing into the lower chassis

Then, insert the first part of the pivoting neck, then screw the clear head top down to sandwich it in

ila_rendered

Screw it together

Fit the brushroll and end cap

Then feed the wiring up and around the head, into it's wiring channels (being careful not to trap the wires between the clear bit and lower chassis)

Run the wires underneath the start of the neck, clipping the black rubber holder in place too. Then bring it round to the top and run the wires into the channels

ila_rendered

Clip the wire top cover on

ila_rendered

Jumping to the other end now, feed the cables through the middle and machine end part, and wire up the machine end

Now, you need to clip the 2 parts together, finish pushing the cables into their slots, then screw up the middle part to hold it all together, checking it still pivots about

Double check all of the wires as you go

Fit the immaculate wheels (the owner has hardwood and quarry tiles all downstairs... nice to see it's not affected by that at all...)

Then clip the rear squeegee back down

And we are done!

Do I recommend you do this to your own V10? No, not yet... They are still under warranty, and if you say the right words to Dyson, they probably will come and fix whatever. Just not in this case.

However, wait a few years, as these only have a 2 year guarantee which for some will be half out by now

"18. Guarantee Details
18.1 All Dyson full size machines are covered by a 5 year guarantee, and all environmental control, lighting, Supersonic and cordless products are covered by a 2 year guarantee (terms and conditions apply).

18.2 For full details of your Dyson guarantee, click here"

(which is quite funny, as on the v10 website, Dyson say the guarantee "This is the place where we can activate your guarantee and help you get the very best from your Dyson machine through its whole lifetime. " so it seems they don't trust them as much in house anymore as they used to, coupled with every consumer group across the world dropping their ratings of them as they fail, this thread might become busy in a year or so!

Thanks for reading!

Thanks for the very detailed info. By the way, please teach me how to insert pictures in the post. I know using "Attachments and other options" but It is not what I wanted. I want to insert multiple pictures in the post as you did in your post. I know there's an icon saying "Insert Image" but I don't know after I click the Icon..

Thanks in advance,  Young Lee

@beko1987 I followed your notes to the end of Reply #2. Very helpful thanks, but I'm struggling to remove the pivot sleeve in the last picture on #2.

Quote
Back to the pivot (and this should be very familiar to anyone who'se had a modern dyson head apart before as it's identical) but the pivot pulls apart, and you can start to release the wires

The pivot sleeve is on the right of your picture https://manchestervacs.co.uk/DysonForum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3851.0;attach=26147;image and there appear to be three clips. The two at either side unclipped with a bit of a tug and sliding a shim between the end of the pivot clip and the pivot, but the central clip stays firmly in place so far.

I tried pulling it up and out from the sides, lifting the raised part of the sleeve, but that jams it against the hinge sockets, and pushing a slim screwdriver between the cables to where the clip is then either depressing the clip - didn't budge - or trying to lever the pivot sleeve up. But it doesn't budge. Also depressing the red button to access the clip from the other side. Again I can't get it to budge.

I'm running out of ideas!

Any help in getting this off would be much appreciated, thanks.

In case anyone else runs into the same difficulty, here's a picture of the catches on the collar.

The two outer clips can be levered off; the central clip is reinforced and about 9mm wide, so needs a slim, flat-blade (under 9mm) screwdriver pushed in hard to unclip it.

Hello, I've already opened my own post, but I'll ask the question again here, maybe someone could help with this part. Fuse C6 has blown and I need the data for this fuse.
