Poor Obstacle Crossing / Ground Clearance Issue
Robot vacuum frequently gets stuck on thresholds, rugs, or cords
Advertisements
Possible Causes
Worn drive wheels, Weak wheel suspension springs, Low battery reducing motor torque, Excessive debris in wheel wells
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn OFF the robot before inspecting the wheels.
- 1. Clean wheel wells: Remove hair and debris from around the drive wheels and axles.
- 2. Check wheel tread: Inspect the rubber on the drive wheels. If it is smooth or cracked, replace the wheel modules.
- 3. Test suspension: Press each wheel up and down to ensure it moves freely. If a wheel is stiff or does not extend fully, the suspension may be worn or jammed.
- 4. Adjust environment: Use cable organizers and threshold ramps where possible to reduce trapping points.
Warning: Do not add non-OEM spacers or oversized wheels; this can affect sensor alignment and cause safety issues.
