Thanks for your advice. I cleaned the sensors on the wheels and still the unit was having a circular dance. From another site mentioning another model there could be a problem with the sensors behind the front bumper bar and yes that was the problem. They needed blowing out with a strong air gun. Now after extensive cleaning my Roomba is running like a dream :-)

My problem as well with my Roomba scheduler. The black and white front wheel housing was packed with rug fiber. Cleaned it out and all is well.

Also have a roomba discovery. It has a different front wheel with out any apparent sensor.

I have a Roomba from 2002 (before the 400 series. This tutorial looks like it might apply, but I can only get 2 of the 3 screws off the hubcap of the wheel. The other one is blocked by the top cover.
