dyson vch601 tank failure | Dyson Community
Skip to main content

Hello,

I am experiencing an issue with my Dyson VCH601, which operates intermittently before shutting off.

If I do not close the waste collection flap, the vacuum works perfectly. However, as soon as the flap is closed, it starts to function erratically, the indicator light on the tube flashes white, and the device stops.

I have tried cleaning the compartment, but it has not resolved the issue.

Do you have a solution to help fix this problem?

Thank you.

We’re happy to advise further but ‘VCH601’ isn't a Dyson model number - are you able to confirm the exact machine you own? You’re welcome to share a clear photo of it here to help us identify it if you’re not sure!

In the meantime, we’d strongly recommend running through the troubleshooting steps shown in this article, as this will resolve most basic issues:
