Where to buy a Dyson DC04 Wand Release Catch or Wand Cap.
Some time ago Dyson discontinued all support and spare parts supply for the DC04 as we mentioned here: Dyson Are Ending Parts & Service Support for the DC04 Range.
While the supply of parts hasn’t yet diminished terribly due to the aftermarket, some spares are starting to become elusive to obtain new.
For this reason, it’s always pleasing when new DC04 spares become available as it means even more Dyson DC04s will continue to be repaired and fewer of them will end up in landfill.
We mentioned recently that DC04 wand handles will be available shortly, and already two parts from the wand are already available in advance of that.
The wand release catch:
And the wand cap:
The release catches and the wand cap being made available in silver solve the problem of colour matching between variants.
The release catches fit all models:
As do the top swivelling wand caps.
It is worth noting that there are two variants on the original wand caps, one had a spring fitted, and one did not.
This new version fits both variants.

I have a DC04 Yellow / Grey with a broken wand handle (at the plastic Y joint) now bound up with duct tape. I recently bought a new generic grey wand handle from Manchester Vacs and would like to swap the yellow wand release catch and upper cord hook from my old handle. (The yellow top wand cap will not fit the new wand handle despite advice from Manchester Vacs that it would.) As these both have springs it’s not immediately obvious how to do this. Can anyone advise how to do this?
They do fit, you are doing it wrong.
