Why does my Dyson 360 Heurist robot vacuum return to its dock as soon as I start a clean? | Dyson Community
Skip to main content

My robot keeps starting and moving off the dock for about a foot or so, turns round and heads back to re dock. Returning to light dock comes on and in app the room I’m trying to clean gets a negative sign by the room.

all filters cleaned and checked. Vacuum 2years old.

Battery charging normally. No blockages. Software up to date.

any suggestions? thx!
