Shark Ion Robot Vacuum Wheel Repair

If you feel up to the challenge and want to save some money here is a great option to check before buying new wheels for your robot vacuum. This will save you time but is not always the problem.
Here is a list of the tools I use to work on these robots

Torx Bit Kit
Rubber Mat
Grease for electronics
Cleaning Supplies
New battery
shark iq
shark ion
Shark RV1001ae Spinner Brushes
Shark RV1001ae Brush Roller

I bought one on Prime day. Used it once and it wouldn’t re-dock. It had gone under the bed and a stray dryer sheet got stuck in the wheel housing. Your video saved me! Thanks so much!

[Maria_Moon_Angel]

Thank you! I took it a bit further and took the screws that held the motor in the housing, I did this because there was thread wrapped around it

Now it's able to move freely! Yay! Thanks for trying to fix it and not just trying to sell us parts. Even though you do sell parts, this video showed that you want to help legitimately

Thank you💚

[alisadelong]

Your awsome! Simply explained. Made the task so easy. Great Job!!!

[genetraeger]

Is there anywhere I can purchase specific plastic gears or should I never buy a shark product again.

[WhiskeyViews]

I can’t get the stupid pin out, any pro tips?

[debids]

So many videos of people just replacing the entire wheel.
I will try this later today, thank for the information!

[raypatino]

Great detailed video, thanks. I used a small vise grip to remove the pin effortlessly.

[stephenzoll]

How do you remove the pin when it's flush with the housing it's in ?

[Jerry-lj]

I have a RV765 that when it start to go forward will turn left sharply and errors with
clean (red) + dock + max + !(red) (flashing). I have taken the wheels apart to check for hair, etc and they were clean with no debris.
Could the wire harnesses be bad or could it be something more serious?
I"d appreciate any help you could give.
I love your videos!
Thanks much

Great video! One thing to add. Instead of pulling the pin out with pliers, I was able to push the pin out from the other side using my T15 torx.

Thank you sosososososo much. I just got off the phone with the shark helpdesk and the guy told me my problem was "eletric" but that also that "there's debris in the model." asked him to clarify because eletric and debris isn't really the same thing and what did he mean by "model". He said I would either have to shell out a lot of money for a repair or just replace it. This video just saved me so much money and my favorite appliance! (I'm very attached to this vaccum! Its the only thing I wanted for Christmas years ago)

[adamhufnagel]

Picked a refurbished one of these. Had T9 screws past the pin. Thanks for run-through

Do you sell replacement parts for Shark QRobot?

[amandaweakley]

So cleaned out my whole unit but there was no hair. Took out all the gears and greased them and the motor one, but when I assemble them they are tight and do not spin properly. The wheel spins easily without the gears and the motor spins easily without the gears too. Any recommendations?

[terirawlins]

@smittysworld Thank you for the video. I did everything you said but found no hair so I assume my motor is done for. Any tips on how to find the correct motor?

[joereumann]

Is there any way to replace nylon gear A2 on Shark model 750?

[johnnyadams]

Great video! Everywhere I looked it talked about replacing the entire wheel unit. Smitty's World took the time to dis-assemble the wheel unit. Mine was clogged just like this example.

[nikkihrabanlmt]

Thank You so much! This was our problem and it was a lsuper easy fix! Our shark has been "broke" for 9 months. 3 weeks ago I broke my hand and the sweeping by my 9year old or only once a week by my husband was driving me bonkers!

[milmor]

Do you have any of the worm gears for a shark rv1001ae? So far best and like only video I could find on these wheel assemblies on these sharks

[LisaDunn-clov]

Great video! I was able to get the wheel out but the pin is flush with the casing so I can't grab it. Is there another way to get it out?
