My Dyson DC04 has finally broken after 5 and half years of use. The part where the handle goes into the main body has cracked which means when pulling the vacuum cleaner backwards the handle periodically comes out and no longer stays put.
The solution for me is to change the whole main duct of the machine with a new one. I have ordered this for £18 from Dyson spares. I will have to remove the switch from the body, has anyone here had experience of removing this switch I know that it requires a screwdriver at the side of the switch button to remove the switch but I am worried I might break this.
