Here’s a detailed description of these errors and how you can fix them.
Fixing Bissell Icon Pet Error Codes:
- First Dot Light Blinking
This error code indicates that the vacuum is not detecting a brush roll. Remove the brush roll and put it back in to fix this. If that doesn’t work, try restarting the vacuum. A brush roll issue is common and easily fixable.
- Two Dots Blinking
This error code indicates that the vacuum is not detecting a dustbin. To fix this, ensure the dustbin is inserted correctly and locked. If that doesn’t work, try restarting the vacuum. If you haven’t emptied the dustbin in a while, it may be full by now and needs to get empty again. The correct way to fix the dustbin issue is first to empty it, then make sure you insert and lock it in place.
- Three Dots Blue Light Blinks
This error code means that the vacuum is not detecting a filter. To fix this, simply remove the filter and put it back in. A filter issue is usually due to a dirty or clogged filter and is easily fixable. To clean a clogged filter, remove it and rinse it with water. Usually, the filter becomes clogged with pet hair and needs to be cleaned regularly.
- Battery Icon Blinks
This error code means that the battery is not detected or is low. To fix this, ensure the battery is properly inserted and locked. A battery issue is also common and easily fixable. The battery charging time is about three hours. Once it’s fully charged, the vacuum should work properly again. If the battery is low, consider placing it on charge again. However, you’ll have to get a replacement if the battery is damaged. To prolong battery life, make sure you don’t overcharge the vacuum.
Similarly, avoid overusing the vacuum. If you have to use the vacuum for long durations, it is preferable to take small breaks in between to let the vacuum rest for a while. This allows the vacuum to cool down and guarantees optimal performance.

A Brush roll stall is the root cause of this error. A blockage can cause it in the brush roll or because the bristles have worn out. To fix a brush roll stall, ensure the brush roll is clear of debris or dirt. If that doesn’t work, replace the brush roll.
