Possible Causes

Worn or missing side brush, Side brush installed incorrectly, Side brush motor weak, Robot running at too high speed near walls

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the robot before handling the side brush.

  • Check side brush presence: Ensure the side brush is installed and not missing. If missing, install a genuine Wyze side brush.
  • Inspect side brush condition: If bristles are bent backward or very short, replace the brush.
  • Re-seat side brush: Pull off the brush and push it back firmly onto the shaft until it clicks.
  • Run edge cleaning mode: If available in the Wyze app, run an edge or wall-follow mode to improve cleaning along baseboards.
  • If edges remain dirty: The side brush motor may be weak or not spinning at full speed. This requires internal testing and possible motor replacement.
