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

Thu, 18 Sep 2025 01:12:55 -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!

iRobot Roomba 655 Pet Series: Why does my Roomba vacuum makes a ticking noise while its charging?

Sat, 10 May 2025 13:40:07 -0700

I charge my Roomba Pet Series vacuum cleaner nightly. Just a couple nights ago it started making a ticking noise while it charges. Its not very loud, but I am wondering if it is harmful to the robot, or if it could have potential danger.

iRobot Roomba 650: Why does Roomba 650 turn off before returning to charging station?

Wed, 28 Feb 2018 09:29:51 -0700

I programmed my Roomba 650 to clean at night, and it used to do its job, then return to its charging station. Lately, however, it has been ending its cycle somewhere else, like along a wall or in the middle of the room. I finally realized the other day that it wasn't finishing the job, it was dying before it got far from the charging station. How can I fix this? I'm not getting any error messages.

Irobot Roomba 980: My roomba will not dock to recharge and goes past the invisible towers

Sat, 23 Nov 2024 09:17:28 -0700

HI!

My roomba 980 is only 6 months old, it will not dock to recharge and goes past the invisible walls. Its carpet boost works fine and seems to be running well otherwise. Roomba customer service sucks, they will not repair it because its refurbished (THEY sent me refurbished one after initial purchase came broken). I have recently serviced it. Any advice welcome!

Thanks

iRobot Roomba 560: Access to Roomba 560 circuit board.

Tue, 22 Aug 2017 19:32:41 -0700

I have a faulty Roomba 560. afer substitution teting I gather the problem is in the board.

I suspect the problem may be in some capacitor as the problem is intermitent but recurring.

simple screw driver dismantling left me short of the pcb.

Where can I find instructions to access the pcb?

Roborock S7: Two plastic parts are leftovers but where from?

Fri, 28 Nov 2025 11:16:07 -0700

I teared my vacuum cleaner (Roborock S7 later model) down (have to change the vibrating module) and in some point I turned it (vacuum cleaner) upside down these parts dropped out on the table. The size of the fallen out rectangular black plastic part is about 13x4x5 mm including some kind of similar notches on it's each end. There are two pieces not exactly the same looking parts but the sizes are the same. I might remember they falled out after removing the main brush module and then when I turned vacuum cleaner upside down there parts falled out. The model is the later one and European (Roborock S7) . Anyone who might know these parts locations in vacuum cleaner would you please tell me?

iRobot Roomba i7: New battery doesn’t charge up to 100%

Tue, 04 Nov 2025 06:46:04 -0700

I bought new battery from the iFixit store but even leaving it charging for a whole night it never reaches 100%.

I followed the instructions to mount it, holding the robot's buttons before inserting the new battery.

To be on the sure I did an hard reset of the robot but the battery does not fully charge.

Xiaomi Docking Station CDZ02RR: Roborock S5 not charging - Error 13

Tue, 30 Jan 2024 10:05:59 -0700

Hi !

I have the problem Error 13 . In the robot changed the P185 fuse.

I have 2 charger. In same chaerger changed the condensator . Not some cheap, im using Nichicon 450v 68uF.

One charger working good, all ok, but the another not.

On the bad charger measuring 4,2v , if charged 20v.

Sometimes the robot starts charging, but after a few days it doesn't. Then I put the charger aside and after a few it's good again for a while.

In the bad charger changed again another Nichicon condenstor --- not working

Changed the ISA07N65A Mosfet ---- not working

what can i do? Have any idea ? Thanks

Hi @hainzy !

My question its moved so, i try answear here.

"the Parts your replaced where faulty, or did you replace them without checking?

when you are already replacing parts you could also try to replace these:

- Mosfet B09N03 (EMB09N03H) or B09A03 (EMB09A03HP) - depending on the version

- Controller MAX8731A (MAX8731AETI+) or BQ24773 (ref BQ24773RUYT) - depending on the version

or you replace the whole board of the Robot, or the charger.

That would probably be easier...

But you did already check the battery, right? "

The capacitator its fault , the mosfet i think not, but i have one new so i chang it.

The battery its good, with another charger allworking ok.

If i can buy, i will try change the Mosfet B09N03 and the Controller MAX8731A. Thanks,

Old battery was dead. Bought a new one. Plugged it in and the red charging light just kept blinking. No charge appeared to be taking place. Thought battery was bad and they sent me another. Same thing. Red light just keeps blinking, no charge.

What am I doing wrong? How do I trick it into charging a new battery?

This is an older red Roomba 4100.
