I have an S200 that is 5 years old that is having some issues. I saw a couple of members had theirs die right around the 5-year mark, so I don't have too much hope in fixing mine but thought I would get some other opinions.
I've done all the troubleshooting that I can think of but maybe I'm missing something else. I took the robot apart and checked and cleaned the impeller. I also took off the motor unit and made sure nothing was caught in the gears and reseated it. The robot will power on, the impeller spins and will go through the start-up cycle and run for only 5-10 minutes. It is picking up debris but it quits after only running for maybe 5-15 minutes. Any ideas why it might be doing this?
I feel like I've got my money's worth, but the fact it is still sucking up debris while it is working really has me scratching my head. I was really hoping this one could get me through the rest of the season before getting a new one.
