Blueair 555EB, fuse = GMA 3A (5x20 mm)
Our blueair 555EB stopped working, we replaced the fuse and it's fixed. It was a little tricky to replace it, you technically have to unscrew almost everything in order to get to the fuse to replace it.

    Hi - I have a 503 and am trying to determine if the issue of my unit not working is also due to the fuse. Was the fuse for the 555 located under the housing cover beneath the fan? I removed the sides of the unit and partially disassembled it, but haven't been able to get to the the circuit board underneath the housing - I would need to disconnect all the wiring and clip the zip ties first, but wanted to make sure I'm looking in the right place before doing so. Thanks!

    Kelvin - possibly too late for you, but I just took apart my 555 EB - and yes, the fuse is within the housing that is located under the fan, and the fuse is covered (on mine) with a transparent/translucent blue silicone cover (easy to lift off, then the fuse is visible). Unfortunately for me, I checked the fuse, and it is fine. There is only one fuse for the unit - so if the fuse is blown, you should have no power at all. For mine, I get low speed fan, but not higher speeds, nor any fan spinning under "auto" mode. It must either be 1) a relay, 2) the 120 vAC --> 230 vAC transformer or 3) the high-speed winding on the fan motor itself. Blue Air has horrible customer service, closed their repair facility, only answers their phone after a 30 minute hold and then has no useful information. There is no schematic available so home repair will be a challenge. I may end up replacing the fan unit with a 120v variable speed (PWM controlled) fan, just replacing the guts of the Blue Air so that I can still use the housing and the filters (but no auto mode).

My Blue air purifier won't turn on?

Question edited for clarity.
Question moved from Computers and Internet.

Make sure the filters are properly seated. Contact them at Support direct. It sounds like it might need dealer repair.

Air purifier filter smells bad

That's interesting... I doubt it is the filter if the new filter did the same. It might help if you take a fan and blow it through the area behind the filter, or maybe even spraying some Lysol in it, because my best guess is that something inside the purifier is what is causing the smell. Hope this helps!

Dust caked up on wires and fan,how do you take it apart to clean it?

This question seems similar to another post from a while ago. http://www.fixya.com/support/t5074178-like_clean I just finished my Blue Air 500 for the same problem with loads of collected hair and dust around the fan. The manufacturer manual does not cover this type of cleaning and they do not want people to open the unit as it might void the warranty. It's actually simple you've done it but not obvious. There are 4 screws which you may not have seen on the top until you pop off the top grill. Remove those as they fasten the side curved panels, once the top screws are removed tug on the white curved pieces upwards and they should come off. Once these are off you should have full access to the interior to clean. Ours was utterly filthy and way past the warranty.

Blueaire 501 dust caked up on wires and fan,how do you take it apart to clean it?

Hi, I have had the same problem and have figured out how to open it.

To open your blueair air purifier, follow the steps below;
1. Get a phillips head screwdriver,
2. Open the unit and remove the air filters.
3. Use the phillips head screwdriver to remove the screws that you can see.
4. After taking out the screws, remove the "galvanizedSwedish steel housing"
(cream coloured sides) of the purifier by lifting it upwards (i.e. from bottom to top of unit).
4. You will now have access to the interior of the purifier.
5. You can now take out the fan and clean it, or what ever part you are trying to clean. I used a Dyson HEPA vacuum cleaner.
6. To reassemble, reverse the instructions above to reassemble the purifier.

My blueair 501 suddenly stopped working. I turned it off to move it to another room, and it will not come back on. Outlet has power. Is there an internal fuse I can replace?

The power cord had burned out right at the point where it connects to the female receptable (the end that connects to the unit). Need replacement cord.
