    Can anyone confirm colour code for wiring replacement motor on Dyson DC05. (Motorhead) ❓ Is it 2x Black to trailing connector and White wire to fixed terminal or vice versa?

    I’m pretty sure the first way is correct.

    But the manufacteurs have an annoying habit of changing the colours of the wires.

    I have a wiring diagram, but it’s in black + white. 🙁

    Always unplug the vac first. :plug:

    Thanks. There are two identical single female spade connectors. One with 2 x black wires and 1 with single white. Would appreciate copy of wiring diagram if possible so I can trace the circuit.

    Sorry, I can’t do that.

    What was the original problem?

    If it was no motor action from that motorhead, it could be a module problem (from past expierience). These are notoriously awkward, and I’d recommend professional help from your local Dyson specialist.

    Thanks, No its not the motorhead. I had that problem some time ago and dyson engineer replaced Wand handle. I checked the old one and it was only a loose wire so I now have a standby. The main motor has failed and I sent it to my local repairer (out of warranty) but replacement motor cost was 50{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of new Dyson. I now have a replacement motor but dealer disconnected wires in original and did not connect them back on returning it, hence my checking wiring before running up new motor.

    The part should be fit by a qualified engineer for safety reasons.

    I can’t be specific on fitting, again for safety reasons. 🙁
