11 Codes
CODE Error 44 Severity: High Difficulty: Intermediate

VibraRise Mop Mechanism Jammed

Error 44 triggers when the motor driver detects persistent overcurrent (stall condition exceeding threshold current >1.2A for 2+ seconds) or Hall-effect position sensor timeout while attempting to actuate the VibraRise 3.0 mop lifting carriage.

⏱ 30-45 Mins Troubleshoot Now →
CODE Error 42 Severity: Medium Difficulty: Intermediate

FlexiArm Side Brush Motor Jam

Error 42 indicates that the dynamic FlexiArm deployment actuator encountered excessive mechanical resistance or an overcurrent condition (>350mA) while attempting to extend or retract the robotic side brush mechanism.

⏱ 20-35 Mins Troubleshoot Now →
CODE Error 10 Severity: Medium Difficulty: Intermediate

FlexiArm Side Brush Stall

Error 10 indicates an overcurrent or stall condition detected on the side brush motor or its robotic FlexiArm extension linkage. The mainboard current-sensing shunt resistor detects motor current exceeding threshold (>650mA sustained) or a failure in the dynamic arm deployment limit switch, triggering an automatic protective shutdown.

CODE Error 104 Severity: High Difficulty: Intermediate

FlexiArm Side Brush Motor Stall

Error 104 indicates an overcurrent or stall condition detected on the Roborock FlexiArm mechanical deployment linkage or rotational side brush DC drive motor. Mainboard current-sensing shunts trigger shutdown when load exceeds safety thresholds.

⏱ 20-35 Mins Troubleshoot Now →
CODE Error 4 Severity: High Difficulty: Intermediate

Main Brush Roller Stall Overcurrent

Main drive MCU detected current draw exceeding the 1.8A safe operating threshold on the DuoRoller drive motor circuit, triggering firmware-level overcurrent protection to prevent motor winding burnout and driver IC damage.

⏱ 20-30 Mins Troubleshoot Now →
CODE Error 105 Severity: Medium Difficulty: Intermediate

FlexiArm Side Brush Stuck Retracted

Error 105 indicates the robotic arm deployment mechanism failed to extend from its housing. The MCU detected motor overcurrent (>350mA) or an endstop optical/Hall sensor timeout during the extension sequence.

⏱ 20-30 Mins Troubleshoot Now →
CODE Error 107 Severity: Medium Difficulty: Intermediate

FlexiArm Side Brush Stuck

Error 107 triggers when the FlexiArm micro-stepper motor or mechanical linkage encounters excessive resistance during side brush extension or retraction. The MCU detects overcurrent on the extension drive circuit or a limit switch timeout, shutting down the arm actuator to prevent motor burnout.

⏱ 20-30 Mins Troubleshoot Now →
CODE Error 23 Severity: Medium Difficulty: Intermediate

VibraRise Mop Mechanism Stuck

Error 23 triggers when the mainboard micro-controller detects motor overcurrent or timeout via optical/hall-effect limit switches during mop module retraction or deployment cycles.

⏱ 20-35 Mins Troubleshoot Now →
CODE Error 51 Severity: Medium Difficulty: Intermediate

FlexiArm Side Brush Jammed

Error 51 is triggered when the microcontroller detects a positional stall, travel timeout, or current spike on the FlexiArm side brush extension actuator. This occurs when foreign matter wedges the articulating linkage, the micro-worm drive binds, or the actuator position limit switch fails to signal state transition.

⏱ 20-30 Mins Troubleshoot Now →
CODE Error 28 Severity: High Difficulty: Intermediate

VibraRise Mop Motor Jammed

Error 28 indicates that the mainboard MCU detected an overcurrent stall condition or a positional timeout on the VibraRise mop lifting mechanism. The motor controller attempts to raise or lower the mop module, but mechanical binding or failure of the position-sensing limit switch prevents completion within the 3.0-second actuation window.

⏱ 25-40 Mins Troubleshoot Now →
CODE ERROR-10-DOCK Severity: Medium Difficulty: Easy

Error 10: Dock Auto-Empty Air Duct Blocked / Filter Jammed

Error 10 is generated when the vacuum attempts to evacuate debris at the RockDock Ultra dock, but the differential pressure sensor detects an air blockage or suction motor overload exceeding the 27,000 Pa vacuum threshold.
