Bin cover came unattached.

из

No idea how to replace plastic bin unattached bottom.

из

Same thing happened to my Dyson V8. Which we only bought a couple of weeks ago, so still under warranty. Couldn’t find anything online, how to re-attach it, so called Dyson. They had to send me a new canister, because you can’t put it back on, without breaking the little plastic pieces, that snap in place. Sounds like a design defect & may just return the machine.

из

I have had the same problem. After reading this post I placed an order for a new bin. Price wasn't too bad - £22 with delivery.

Thank you all for your posts and advice.

из

Sounds like the same problem I’m having. The small clear plastic prongs will not squeeze together enough to get it to slide into the two little holes.

Good to know to call for a new bin.

Thanks

Hi,

Here is a link to the ifixit Dyson V8 Absolute Bin Replacement guide.

Hopefully it is of some help to you.

Hi,

Here is a video which shows how to attach the bin lid cover on a Dyson DC07 vacuum cleaner. Whilst it is not for your particular model I think that the principle of connection is the same.

Didn't answer my question on how to attach bin cover?

из

I need an answer from you on reattaching cover. I don't need a new replacement bin. Just show me how to get the cover back on.

из

You haven't answered my question. Who can help me?

из

You didn't answer my question as how to reattach bin cover.

Hi @naturgirl

I posted a video as an update yesterday in my answer above that shows how to apply the lid for another Dyson model, thinking that it may be the same for your model. Isn't it?

Having looked at all the suggestions, I wondered what made the lid come off so easily as mine did? Most said it was banged against something or knocked. So I realised that knocking it must do something. You know what , it does. It compresses the round plastic circle into an oval shape. So I compressed my bin by squeezing it with my fingers across the open top at 90 degrees to the latch and hinge pin. Guess what? The hinge pin holes flex slightly outwards allowing you to ease the bin lid pins back into place. Easy peasy . No brute force, no danger of the pins breaking. Just squeeze across the diameter of the top of the bin with one pin hinge of the lid in its hole and the other will slot into place, Voila!

Worked like a charm. Had to have my husband squeeze the canister because he had more strength. I put lid in place

из

Thank you!! This worked right away without me forcing it back in

из

Thanks so much for your solution which worked perfectly! I also learned that I must be careful not to knock the bin against anything when I empty it out.

из

Thank you, that was the perfect explanation, I was able to fit the lid back into its bracket, with relative ease, which is incredible as I have dexterity issues. So relieved I was able to fix my sucker, instead of having to fork out for replacement parts!

из

Thank you so much!! Worked great and I’m soo relieved as this vacuum is very helpful.

Hello Donna

I had the same problem on my V8 absolute. I tried to fix the lid back on but was deterred in case any of the plastic snapped. I contacted Dyson and as my machine is under guarantee, they are sending me a new bin. In the meantime, as i had nothing to lose in trying to force the bin lid on, I did so and it worked. I used the same principle as the guy in the DC07 Video above. As you have arthritic fingers, I would get a friend/neighbour to help you to squeeze the lid back on (on the basis that you won't be angry if the plastic breaks - like me, you have nothing to lose at this stage, as you will be receiving a new bin). I hope it works. All the best

Hi, I just called the customer service. They told me that the bin is not covered under warranty and I have to pay for it if I order a new one from them. Just wonder if you were asked to pay for the new bin? Thanks.

из

My machine was still under warranty, so didn't have to pay for a new bin.

из

My cover came off today and I thought I might break it trying to put it back on. However emboldened by the answer above, I gave it another go and it worked. Thanks very much

I know this is late coming but my bin cover just came off so… I was in the same position as you. I aligned one of the plastic tab in position or in one of the holes. While keeping the inserted pin tab in position I aligned the other pin square to the first and use pressure to push it down, it snapped in place. It takes some pressure to snap the last tab into the remaining hole. The tab plastic is tough. Remember to keep the tabs in alignment while applying the doward pressure.

The bin cover of my Dyson Animal V8 came off in February. I could not get it back on and called Dyson, and they sent a new bin assembly which I successfully installed. I was using my vacuum just now and knocked it against my thigh and the cover of the new bin assembly popped off. This has to be a design flaw. Utterly ridiculous! And Dyson is closed because of the pandemic. Right now I have a very expensive unusable vacuum and a Golden Retriever going through his Spring shed Any suggestions?

My bin cover on my Dyson v8 Absolute came loose last weekend - the little plastic tab that holds it in place had cracked and come off. I went on the website on Easter Monday and ordered a replacement bin (my machine is over a year out of warranty so I had to pay but it wasn’t expensive). It arrived via Royal Mail this morning (less than 48 hours after ordering, during the pandemic!). Followed simple video on Dyson website to remove old bin and fit new one, took seconds! Good as new again.

Yes my bin door came off as I was emptying the canister. Really hard to imagine it coming loose when it is so difficult to get back in its hinges. However, this is how I did it. I used my thinnest flat head screwdriver. Place one hinge in its receiver and with the screwdriver between the other hinge and its receiver gently pry open while pushing on the door. Yes all the while I’m thinking I could break it but the clearance needed is so small ,I took a chance. Second hinge slid into place.

Happy ending.

It worked, thank you so much. I did note that while I pressed on the second plastic prong (carefully aligned with the first prong, which had fit easily into its groove), the opposite side of the lid clicked closed.- the clip at side that always opens as you empty the bin. Apparently, it closed due to the pressure I was exerting at the opposite side. It;'s closing caused the lid to press down flush on the basin's rim, all around, except for a slight bubble right where I was pressing on the prong, manually. This added pressure helped as within 1-2 seconds the plastic prong was forced into place with no breakage, Just as I'd been advised. Look Mom, I can Do it myself!!!

Same issue. I agree with other solutions BUT….make sure you have the cover in the all the way open when you force it back on. I just about gave up until after one side was in I tried opening it all the way and it slipped right in. Also a tiny bit of WD 40 helps. Wayne Kordek

Owned 2 Dyson V6 and this happened to me twice where the lid just came off when I accidentally hit it into something. Anyway I just positioned the head down on the carpet with the lid on a wide open position and angle the lid a little bit so the right side goes in first and put a little pressure down and it should snap back in place.

I stumbled upon the answer - it takes v little force. You need to take the lid past the fully open position - if closed is zero degrees open it to 270 degrees so it's positioned with its back to the drum and as you rotate it back to zero insert the pins and they click in without effort!

The bin cover came off and was completely shocked. Luckily, the tabs didn’t break. I was able to get it back on. I first dismantled the bin from the machine. I placed the bin upside down with the bin tabs facing me. Note, I placed it on non-skid material (like used under carpets or to grip a jar lid) to prevent it form moving. I then carefully aligned one tab into the bin slot and gently tried forcing the other tab in but it wouldn’t budge and I was afraid to break it. The next time, I tried again and at first I was having the same problem. But then, I tilted the cover a little backwards to me, so it was angled and I then applied downward pressure and it snapped in fairly easily! It caught me by surprise and at first I dint think it worked, but it did!

Now I can see how it must have come apart by being puled off on an angle. So the TRICK seems to be angling the cover to get the second tab into place.

RobertGuyPowell nailed it! Squeeze the canister once you position one of the pins. Snapped right back. And I’m about as strong as a hummingbird! Thank you! Saved me 23.00 plus S&H.
