iRobot Roomba S9+ Repair Manual

Symptoms

Fixed robot or Clean Base structure is cracked, loose, distorted, or unsafe.
CLEAN stays dark after the robot has rested on a powered Clean Base.
The Clean Base has no status response or cannot pass charge to the robot.
The robot halts on a safe flat floor as though a drop were present.
The Clean Base reports a clog, leaks air, or releases dust from the path.
The pack will not click into the rear bay or springs loose during handling.
Pressing CLEAN produces no light, sound, or response, whether the robot is on or off the Home Base.
The robot charges fully, but ends early with low battery, repeatedly recharges, or cannot reach the Home Base before Error 46.
A genuine m Series pad is fully seated in both tracks, but the robot refuses to run or selects the wrong pad state.
A wet-mop job runs with little or no liquid, or Error 44 reports that the pump did not start after wet setup is correct.
The robot is charged but cannot drive off the Home Base when a job begins after clearance and placement are proven.
The job ends with a docking problem or the robot cannot find the Home Base after placement, clearance, and map-start checks are corrected.
The tank is filled to the top and installed flat, but the red sweep or Error 37 still says to fill it.
The robot repeatedly reverses, circles, or turns away on a clear, level hard floor after placement causes are ruled out.
Charging starts only after repositioning or drops out before completion.
The robot refuses charge because the pack temperature is outside normal range.
The 200-series robot is awake nearby, but the iRobot app cannot add or connect to it.
The robot stops with Error 68 because its camera failed during the cleaning job.
The correct wet or damp cycle leaves pooling or substantially more water than expected.
The charged robot can show some activity, but CLEAN presses, indicators, or tones are missing, delayed, or inconsistent.
