Robotvac neato xv signature doesn't start

I have a neato XV signature and a few years ago, there was a problem, he lost his sensor for view. Now i thought to experiment with it and change the sensor. First a charged the battery and that was still good. when i push start, he comes out of his docking station, but then he starts to make a lot of noise en doesn’t start. Is this the ventilator that is broken or the brush motor? for the view senssor that he has lost, is that de cliff sensor?

Hi @Debbeke and welcome to our forum!

This can be caused by either a defective RPS module or the RPS motor.

To make sure please do this simple tests:

When powering on the robot, check the RPS module located on top of the robot (the turret part where it is written Neato…).

Check inside when you start a cleaning cycle and verify if it’s rotating.

You can also try to clean the laser lenses by blowing air with a compressed air duster.

Please let us know how it goes.
