You probably got a blockage in your wand which caused it to overheat and cut out. Check for blockages, use a brush stale down the tube to dislodge anything. Next, check your filters, refer to the tutorials here: Looking after your Dyson.

So, if anything causes it to overheat, it will switch off. If this happens, leave the cleaner switched off for at least two hours, as it will not start again until it has cooled down.

The most common cause of a cut-out is that the cleaner has a blockage or the filter needs washing. A high room temperature may also trigger it. Before you continue vacuuming, ensure the filter is clean and there are no blockages. You can download the user guide at www.dyson.co.uk/support/.

the motor brushes are worn down and can be expensive to get someone to fit them for you so i think its time for a new cleaner

It is probably a thermal cut-off which is caused by a blockage. The machine will turn itself off before it overheats if it is a thermal cut-off. Once it has cooled down, you will be able to turn it back on again (usually 30 mins - 1 hour).

If the machine doesn't turn on at all anymore, you may need to replace the power switch. Call the Dyson helpline, they will do a blockage troubleshoot and if it's not that, they will tell you where you can find an authorized Dyson repair dealer in your area.

cut out switch on the motor needs replacing this overheats and cuts of the motor when the motor cools down it will start again you have to keep both filters and cyclone clean and free of dust or after replacement the same will happen again
