Roborock S6 MaxV Charging Dock Base
The charging dock contains an infrared beacon that guides the robot for precision alignment. Over time, internal power supply degradation (often the internal transformer or capacitors) causes the IR signal to weaken or flicker, preventing the robot from 'homing' correctly even if the dock appears powered on. Replacing the entire base is the standard field resolution for persistent docking failures.

Robot Charging Contacts Service Kit
The Roborock S6 series utilizes underside contact plates that are highly susceptible to carbon buildup and oxidation. If the robot reaches the dock but immediately pulls away, it is because the high-resistance connection fails the electrical handshake. Cleaning with an abrasive pad is the first step, but if the plating is pitted or the spring-loaded pins in the dock are recessed, the contacts or the dock must be replaced.

Front Obstacle/IR Sensor Module
The S6 MaxV uses a combination of ReactiveAI (cameras) and IR sensors for docking. If the robot wanders aimlessly without attempting to square up to the dock, the front-facing infrared receiver or the omnidirectional 'top hat' sensor is likely faulty or obscured by internal dust behind the bumper window, preventing the robot from seeing the dock's guidance beams.
