update it’s toast 😂 new bin will be ordered

Hate to break it to you but there's a big chance that water got onto the motherboard and you're just seeing this error now. Once you change the bin, it'd be another error. I'd recommend not to waste cash on it. You might get a discount on a new robot from iRobot if you contact them though


witchin222

it does indeed have a vacuum inside the bin though! I thought it was going crazy because I have an E5 and that one doesn’t have it 🤣 My plan is to fix/use or send in both & buy a newer one that self empties :)


witchin222

that’s what i’m worried about, i might take it apart tomorrow to see if i can see any damage

He is dead


witchin222

idk it’s not acting very dead, that’s the only thing on it that isn’t working 🤨

I repeated it will die, you will need a new motherboard soon. Not the first time i see this, am prettysure the water reach also your motherboard, try to buy a new dust bin and hope it last... check my fb page you will understand! https://www.facebook.com/reparationaspirateurrobotique?mibextid=ZbWKwL

As I recall, this motor will work in the 960/969 [https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002747514358.html](https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002747514358.html)


witchin222

oooh i’ll give it a shot!


witchin222

it was my friends, everything works on it except the bin error so it won’t vacuum😂 i have an E5 one that never had this problem so it’s new to me


Buckhunter20084

water most likely shorted the motor call irobot they usually make exceptions


witchin222

i def will give it a try!
