Roomba Triage

For a couple months my Roomba has been acting a tad bit funny by pretty much not working. Anytime I would attempt to get my Roomba running, it would immediately start producing a clicking noise and then cease cleaning. The following error would be announced “Error 2. Open Roomba’s brush cage and clean brushes.” Now, my Roomba was fairly new and I know people tend to have lots of problems with them, so I started to think I had a dud and just resumed using my regular, old-school vacuum. I did attempt cleaning the brushes a few times, but to know avail. Finally, today I decided to look for an answer and found it here. The trick was removing the brush bearings, which I was unaware of them being able to be removed. Finally, my Roomba is back in order and I hope this helps anybody else who may be experiencing a similar problem
