Robotic Vacuum Cleaner: im going crazy help requested

Sun, 26 Jul 2026 12:09:37 -0700

i bought this vacuum https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DR8NJMCJ?ref... ECOVACS DEEBOT X8 PRO OMNI Robot Vacuum 1 year ago.

recently the main brush motor stopped spinning so i opened it up to replace the motor. i have now bought 3 different replacement motors that say they are for the T8 or 8x. but none of them fit correctly. i have searched like crazy but can not for the life of my find my motor anywhere online. (pictures below) am i crazy? are these no longer in production? is one of the other motors supposed to fit even though the L shape is wrong? your wisdom is appreciated.

ok so with some inspiration from oldturkey03 i think im close. im going to walk through what i did if anyone else is ballzie enough to try this.

so i decided i was going to transfer the old L drive shaft to the new motor. i started by unclipping the snaps around the perimeter (picture1).

once inside i cleaned all the gears as they were very full of dirty grease (picture2).

i then removed the two screws on the left side of the image (picture3) (this is where the motor attaches) and screwed in the new motor.

but as i put it back together i realized that the gear attached to the new motor was beveled to the left but all the old gears were beveled to the right! so i pried the motor gear off of the old motor and transferred it to the new one. (be careful when prying off it toke a lot of force and mine ended up half way across the room in my white shag carpet. much cussing ensued.)

ive got all the pieces together and clean now i guess the last thing i need is to figure out what kind of lubricant to use on the gears. any ideas?

Roborock S7 Max Ultra: Roborock S7 Max Ultra won't auto-empty bin after cleaning

Fri, 10 Jul 2026 06:27:20 -0700

Hi all,

I'm trying to figure out whether I'm dealing with a hardware fault or a software/firmware bug on my Roborock S7 Max Ultra.

Firmware: v02.26.80 (currently up to date, per the app)

The problem: After the robot finishes a cleaning cycle, it does not automatically empty its bin into the dock. This happens regardless of whether the auto-empty setting is on "Smart" or "Max."

What works fine:

If I manually trigger emptying from the app, it works perfectly every time. Even when the robot's onboard bin is completely packed full (mostly dog hair), the manual empty cycle pulls everything through into the dust bag in the dock with no issues.

What doesn't work:

The automatic emptying after a cleaning run simply never triggers on its own.
The bin indicator in the app never turns red/full, even when the bin is genuinely packed solid. The robot will happily keep cleaning with an already-full bin instead of stopping or flagging it.
Eventually I do get an "empty ASAP" notification, but given the above, I suspect that's just timer-based (e.g. "X days since last empty") rather than tied to an actual full-bin reading.

Has anyone dealt with something similar? Is there a known sensor (e.g., bin-full sensor or dock contact sensor) that could cause this exact symptom, or is this more likely a bug that needs a factory reset or re-pairing to fix?

Any troubleshooting tips or shared experiences would be appreciated.

Deebot T8: Deebot is charging but battery level didn't increase

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 17:15:27 -0700

I had a problem with my Deebot. First the battery level stayed at 60%, it is charging (the app told me it is charging and the button is flashing). but the battery level didn't increase. After using the bot to clean the floor the level is 10%. Again it keeps loading but the battery level didn't increase.
So i replaced the battery with a new one. This one was charged 70% from factory but now i see the same thing happen, it is charging now for a few hours but the level still is 70%.
Does anyone know this issue? I hope someone can help me!

Roborock Qrevo S: roborock Qrevo S Robot Lidar error. Check that the turret turns freely

Tue, 23 Jun 2026 13:40:43 -0700

Does anyone have a guide on how to disassemble the Qrevo S?

Context:

My robot hasn't hit the year mark and yet he doth betray me with the Lidar error. I tried spinning the lidar with a cotton swab a few (15) times (it turns just fine), cleaning the area with a toothpick and vacuum, moving it, soft resetting it, hard resetting it and now I'm at a loss.

I followed this guide initially, but unfortunately it doesn't get me all the way to the turret motor in my model: https://www.reddit.com/r/Roborock/commen...

I have tried YouTube, google and am a hair's breadth away setting fire to my poor tool kit.

Any help or advice would be really appreciated.
