Possible Causes

Fully discharged or failed battery, Faulty power button, Disconnected internal power harness, Blown fuse on main PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Remove the battery and disconnect the charger before opening any covers.

  • Check charger and dock: Confirm the charger LED (if present) lights when plugged in. Try a different outlet.
  • Test with known‑good battery: If possible, install a compatible battery from another iRobot cordless vacuum to rule out a dead pack.
  • Inspect power button: Press the power button firmly several times. If it feels loose or does not click, the switch may be broken.
  • Look for life signs: When connecting the charger, watch for any brief LED flash. No response suggests internal power circuit failure.
  • Service required: If a known‑good battery and charger do not restore power, the main PCB, internal fuse, or wiring harness likely needs professional replacement.
