Review: This sensor got our Roomba 960 working again - The family's Roomba ran into the edge of our couch in such a way that it dislodged its sensor, snapping the delicate wires connected to it somewhere within the mechanism itself. I purchased this replacement sensor in the hopes that I could easily replace the broken one and get Roomba going again. It took some time to take things apart to the point where I could get to where the wire harness plugs into the board. Once I did that, it was easy to replace the piece. I put everything back together again, and our Roomba now works perfectly. It returns to the dock on its own, which it couldn't do when this part was broken. Review: It works perfectly, but can be tricky to install due to the complexity - I purchased this due to the suspicion that the IR sensor on my roomba was bad due to it being unable to dock. When I took apart the roomba I found that the wire for the sensor was cut. It took around 25-30 minutes to disassemble(with the assistance of a YouTube video for my model). I put it all back together with the new sensor and it is now working perfectly. This was a perfect replacement for my roomba 770 model. It's still going to be cheaper than sending the unit in for an actual repair. Just one major point, you do need to practically take your whole roomba apart. If you are not comfortable with doing this, I wouldn't suggest it. Other than that, I truly recommend this part. I also wrapped electrical tape around the replacement wiring for the IR sensor to give it some abrasion protection. ## Features - OEM replacement IR sensor - Works with 500, 600, 700, 800, and 900 Series Roombas - This detects the virtual walls, charging dock and remote control - 760 761 770 780 790 801 870 880 805 980 (a few example models) - RCON ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #987,347 in Home & Kitchen ( See Top 100 in Home & Kitchen ) #581 in Robotic Vacuums | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 107 Reviews | ## Images ![Top Bumper IR RCON Sensor Works with Roomba 500/600/700/800/900 Series - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/514s6DxThIL.jpg) ![Top Bumper IR RCON Sensor Works with Roomba 500/600/700/800/900 Series - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81EXIBgCsIL.jpg) ![Top Bumper IR RCON Sensor Works with Roomba 500/600/700/800/900 Series - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81+IgAOz90L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This sensor got our Roomba 960 working again *by P***M on November 15, 2020* The family's Roomba ran into the edge of our couch in such a way that it dislodged its sensor, snapping the delicate wires connected to it somewhere within the mechanism itself.

But definitely worth fixing rather than replacing it. Worked perfect and delivered quick. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.is/products/57503151-top-bumper-ir-rcon-sensor-works-with-roomba-500-600](https://www.desertcart.is/products/57503151-top-bumper-ir-rcon-sensor-works-with-roomba-500-600) --- *Product available on Desertcart Iceland* *Store origin: IS* *Last updated: 2026-08-16*
