iRobot Roomba 555 – Plus.Parts® Service Kit

A 500-series robot that returns to the Home Base earlier than usual is reporting a fault in the vast majority of cases, not a structural issue. Before concluding the 14.4 V NiMH battery in your iRobot Roomba 555 needs replacement, check the consumables first. A bristle or beater brush with hair compacted into the yellow end-cap bearings raises the cleaning-head motor’s current draw; the drive controller reads that elevated draw as a floor-edge signal and redirects the robot toward the Home Base. A filter that has shifted to a consistent mid-grey restricts airflow, increasing the load on the suction motor. Both symptoms reduce apparent run time and can be resolved with a consumable service. If run time remains short after a thorough brush and filter replacement, then cycle the battery once before concluding the pack is spent.

This kit contains Plus.Parts® components as a direct-fit alternative to the original iRobot consumables: a bristle brush, a flexible beater brush, a pleated fibre filter, a 3-arm side brush and yellow end-cap bearing components. All matched to the Roomba 555’s standard-bin configuration.

Consistent performance from each component across the full rated cycle. The VacuumReviews.eu team is available for any question about your 555’s specific setup or your order.
