BISSELL Pet Hair Eraser DualBrush 42943 Parts & Accessories

The BISSELL Pet Hair Eraser DualBrush 42943 has a larger replacement-parts catalog than many current upright vacuums, but the similar names across BISSELL’s Pet Hair Eraser family make exact model and part numbers important. This guide keeps the focus on parts BISSELL currently lists for model 42943. If you are comparing the 42943 with other pet-focused uprights, see our best upright vacuums for pet hair guide.

Use the part number first when shopping. A filter, brush roll, belt, hose, or pet tool that looks similar is not automatically the right replacement for the DualBrush 42943.

BISSELL 42943 Pre-Motor and Post-Motor Filters

The 42943 uses three current replacement filter pieces in BISSELL’s parts catalog: Pre-Motor Foam Filter 1658042, Pre-Motor Fiber Filter 1658041, and Post Motor Pleated Filter 1658043. Matching those exact numbers is safer than buying a generic “Pet Hair Eraser” filter because BISSELL sells several vacuums under that family name.

BISSELL’s 42943 cleaning and maintenance guidance says the pre-motor filters should be cleaned under warm water and allowed to dry completely before reinstalling. The post-motor filter should be wiped with a dry cloth. BISSELL recommends replacing the filters every six months, or as needed. If filtration is a priority because of pet dander or fine dust, our best vacuums for pets and allergies guide covers additional options.

Felt Brush Roll — 1658045

The felt brush roll is the removable front roller in the DualBrush floorhead. BISSELL lists part 1658045 specifically on the 42943 parts page, making it the manufacturer-controlled replacement reference for this model.

Before replacing it, remove the roller, clear hair and debris, and make sure it spins freely. BISSELL’s official brush-roll support guidance says to replace the soft brush roll if it is broken or damaged.

Brush Roll with Gear — 1658046

Part 1658046 is the geared main brush roll BISSELL lists for the Pet Hair Eraser DualBrush 42943. It works with the belt and the front felt roller as part of the two-roll floor-cleaning system.

If the floorhead stops agitating normally, clean the brush area first and inspect the roll for free movement before ordering a replacement. BISSELL recommends replacement when the brush roll assembly is damaged or will not spin freely after debris is removed.

Brush Belt — 1658052

The current BISSELL belt reference for the 42943 is part 1658052. BISSELL’s parts page currently marks it Available Soon. Match the exact 1658052 reference before ordering a replacement from any marketplace.

The belt should be inspected whenever the main brush roll is removed. Replace it if it is broken, stretched, cracked, or otherwise damaged rather than assuming a brush-roll problem is caused by the roller itself.

Access Plate with Screws — 1658047

The access plate is the removable cover over the brush-roll area. BISSELL lists part 1658047 with screws for the 42943, which is useful if the original plate cracks, warps, or no longer secures correctly after floorhead service.

This is usually a damage-replacement part rather than a routine maintenance item. Inspect the plate when cleaning or replacing the brush rolls and belt, and keep the original screws and mounting points free of packed debris.

Hose Assembly — 1658036

The hose assembly carries suction from the Lift-Off pod to the wand and above-floor tools. BISSELL lists part 1658036 for the 42943. It is a more important fit-sensitive part than it looks because the cuffs and locking connections need to seal correctly.

If above-floor suction drops, check the hose for clogs before replacing it. A cracked hose, damaged cuff, or persistent air leak after the blockage is cleared is a stronger reason to replace the assembly.

Separator Assembly — 1658040

The separator sits inside the dirt tank and helps manage debris before air reaches the filters. BISSELL’s current model-specific parts page lists separator assembly 1658040 for the 42943.

BISSELL instructs owners to remove the separator during dirt-tank maintenance and rinse it under warm water to remove debris, then allow it to dry completely. Replacement is mainly needed if the separator is cracked, damaged, or no longer fits correctly.

Dirt Tank Assembly with Separator — 1658039

If the dirt cup itself is damaged, BISSELL lists complete Dirt Tank Assembly with Separator 1658039. This is the cleaner route when the tank, latch, or sealing surfaces are damaged beyond a simple separator replacement.

Empty the tank after cleaning or when it is full rather than packing debris tightly into the cup. Wipe the tank as needed and make sure every washed component is fully dry before reassembly.

Handle and Wand Assembly — 1658035

Part 1658035 is the current BISSELL handle-and-wand assembly listed for the DualBrush 42943. It provides the main handle for upright use and the extension path for above-floor cleaning.

Replace it if the wand is cracked, the locking connection fails, or the handle is physically damaged. Similar BISSELL wand assemblies should not be substituted just because they look alike.

Post Motor Filter Door — 1658044

The post-motor filter door keeps the exhaust filter seated and covered. BISSELL lists part 1658044 for the 42943. It is not a wear item, but a cracked latch or warped cover can keep the filter area from closing correctly.

If the door will not click into place after the filter is installed correctly, inspect the cover and latch before forcing it. A damaged door is better replaced than held in place with a temporary fix that could affect the filter seal.

LED Turbo Brush — 1661176

BISSELL currently lists LED Turbo Brush 1661176 as an accessory for model 42943. It is the powered above-floor tool intended for pet hair on upholstery, stairs, and similar surfaces. BISSELL also provides an official LED TurboBrush use and maintenance guide.

One detail is worth keeping straight: BISSELL’s 42943 product page lists an in-box LED TurboBrush Tool as 1651425, while the current 42943 replacement-parts page lists 1661176. For replacement shopping, use the current model-specific parts listing rather than assuming those two numbers are universally interchangeable.

Brush Roll for Turbo Brush — 1661177

The LED Turbo Brush has its own replaceable roller. BISSELL lists part 1661177 for the turbo tool, which can be a cheaper repair than replacing the complete tool if the roller itself is the damaged component.

BISSELL currently marks this roller Available Soon. Clean hair and debris from the tool first, then replace the roller if it is damaged or no longer turns correctly after maintenance.

LED Lighted Combination Crevice and Dusting Brush Tool — 1635893

Part 1635893 combines a narrow crevice tool with a dusting brush and built-in light. BISSELL lists it both in the current 42943 parts catalog and as one of the tools included with the vacuum.

It is useful around furniture edges, baseboards, vents, shelves, and other narrow spaces. Because BISSELL sells several similar crevice and dusting tools, match the 1635893 part number rather than appearance alone.

How to Avoid Ordering the Wrong 42943 Part

Start with the vacuum model number and then match the exact BISSELL part number. The Pet Hair Eraser name appears on several generations of BISSELL uprights, so family-name compatibility alone is not enough.

For Amazon or other marketplace listings, the safest match is a listing that names model 42943 and the exact BISSELL reference number. If only the family name appears, treat the fit as unverified until the seller or manufacturer documentation confirms it.

OEM vs. Compatible Replacements

Every part number in this guide comes from BISSELL’s current model-specific 42943 parts page. Those numbers are the OEM references to use when comparing replacement options.

A third-party filter, belt, roller, hose, or tool can be listed as compatible when its fit is independently verified, but it should never be described as genuine BISSELL OEM unless the seller and manufacturer information support that claim.

The Bottom Line

The BISSELL Pet Hair Eraser DualBrush 42943 is unusually straightforward to service because BISSELL publishes a model-specific catalog for the filters, two floorhead rollers, belt, hose, dirt tank, separator, handle/wand, filter door, and LED tools. That catalog should be the fit reference before any marketplace listing is considered.

For replacement shopping, start with BISSELL’s model-specific 42943 parts catalog and match both model 42943 and the exact part number before considering any marketplace listing. That avoids mixing in parts from other Pet Hair Eraser generations that may look similar but are not verified for this machine.
