Dyson DC24 pcb.

Is it just R1 faulty? If so, any electronic repairer.

I couldn't find another picture of that board on the web, to see what value it was.

There's a chance that's just a symptom of some other fault, so it's worth checking a few other things, such as motor not jammed or shorted, rectifier diodes not shorted, etc. However, the component itself will only cost pence, once you find out what it was.

Look to see if you have a local Repair Cafe, Restart Project, or Hack Space. This is exactly the sort of thing we repair at such events.

It's likely to be the result of something else, but is so cheap & easy to do I'd replace it & see first.

Nor me. :-(

Indeed, that had crossed my mind.

Nothing like that in my town (that I know of).

Why oh why do people waste money on these overpriced unreliable pieces of s*it? Buy a normal vacuum cleaner, for a price where you can throw it in the bin if it fails.
