Dyson DC04 Not standing upright fix
Very simple fix for a dyson DC04 that wont click back into its upright position
Tools needed and other information
No tools needed but remember to unplug before attemping to fix
The reason the vacuum wont go back to its correct position is because the pivoting elbow has dropped without aligning into the latch (red circle)
Lay the vacuum on its side with the base of the vacuum in its fully reclined position and simply push the elbow back up.
This is how they should latch together correctly
And this is how it looks when the vacuum is in its standing position.
This repair is very simple and the dyson DC07 has a similar procedure for this fault.
