Same issue ... nothing about this LED sequence in Dyson manual but after I opened the battery I’ve found a dead cell so I replaced the battery ... I’m trying now a non genuine battery with 18650 cells inside ... much cheaper and easy to find

DV6: blinking blue battery led or no led illumination at all. Replaced the battery - twice. Once with OEM, once with aftermarket. Same issue. Replaced the charger with OEM. Same problem. Dyson is just a crappy brand with crappy product.

The lights while it is plugged in indicate that the battery is charging https://www.dyson.com/support/journey/tr...

The light while it is unplugged indicates the battery needs to be charged https://www.dyson.com/support/journey/tr...

If the battery indicates a full charge while plugged in but immediately goes dead while unplugged, the battery has failed and should be replaced.

If your battery is broken, it is thankfully very easy to replace!

You can order a very pricey battery from Dyson, or try this one which worked great for me from iFixit:

There are several guides here on iFixit that should help you install the battery, but it is very straight foward.

Dyson sucks and their help centers https://support.dyson.co.nz/support/sv14... are not useful. Replacing filter and resetting Dyson and helped.
