So smart of Dyson to bury the cheapest, weakest, and most high usage part under 9000 other parts. Thanks for the video! Boom!

Bravo sir! $12 trigger and some new longer torx drivers later and we are back in business! Creators like you help save these vacuums from the landfill. Thank you once again!

Thanks mate. Saved me a bundle. Appreciate not having to watch 2 minutes of intro just to feed the algo.

After replacing the trigger, and the unit still disassembled, the trigger was still in the "pressed" or "pushed in" position and was not popping out. I was concerned that I had done something wrong or that the spring needed to be replaced. Defeated, I put everything back together and when I clicked in the battery, the trigger pops out into the normal position. So putting the battery in engages some mechanism to push the trigger out. Other than that little detail missing, great video! Thanks so much for your efforts!

I think you may need to update your tools list a smidge. I have a Dyson V10, and it needed a T8 screwdriver, not a T10. Unfortunately because of the very small clearances, I could not use my T8 bit on a driver. The local hardware and car parts stores did not carry T8 screwdrivers, so I ended up ordering one from Amazon, a bit of a frustrating experience. Otherwise, your instructions have been spot on...

Thank you! Couldn’t have done it without your video, saved me £110.

Thanks for the video, it was exactly what was wrong with mine. For future viewers, besides super gluing the crack, I took it a step further, I glued a gusset (thin piece of plastic .25x.5 of an inch) to the inside part of the crack. The piece of plastic I used actually came from the super glue packaging.

I feelvery grateful for your video! you took me step by step and repaired my V10, and save me lots of grief over having to take the vacuum back to the dealer to I live in a quite remote part of the country in Ireland. Taking the vacuum to the dealer would have meant hours of driving, or very costly shipping charges, let alone the cost for repair! So thank you for making this world a better and easier place to live.

I wish I would have found your video before buying a new V15. My two-year-old V11 frustratingly, repeatedly, kept shutting off while holding the trigger. I was getting a sore hand vacuuming until it wouldn't run at all. Today I repaired the v11 following your instructions. Thank you so much for a great video!

Dyson seems to have designed the trigger poorly, making me wonder how many of these vacuums are retired prematurely for the want of a cheap fix.

Thank you! Just followed your guidance and it saved me from buying a new vacuum. Easy instructions to follow, much appreciated!

Incredible video. Dyson quoted £100 to fix the trigger. Got a replacement for under a tenner and used this excellent step by step video and now it works perfectly again. Top stuff!

Had to tweak things around a bit as some things have perhaps changed a bit, but this was brilliant. Opened it up, trigger is broken in the exact same place, and now it’s back to working. Brilliant stuff, thanks!!

Excellent video. The pictures were close up so easy to see and the presenter showed steps in a clear precise manner. Thank you!

[CelticLady]

Thank you so much for your video. It was easy to follow & once we had the right screwdrivers it didn't take long to repair our Dyson.

I did it - thank you so much for the video! I am not mechanically inclined and have zero appliance repair experience. Thanks again!

Thank you very much for making this video. It's clearly a manufacturer fault if it's happening to so many people and to vacuums that are only used on occasion.

1:20 The white plastic housing was very tight on my V11 and required a lot of force to pry open. Afterwards I saw that there two tabs that hold it together, inserting a flathead screwdriver here should make it easier to open.

2:00 and 2:55 I found that the two wires with flat ends needed a LOT of prying and persuasion to flatten out in order to come out and then also to rehouse it.

Super helpful. I had to use a T8 screwdriver but easy enough to switch and fix with your great instructions. Thanks so much.
