Unlikely there is a conventional fuse inside though there could be a thermal fuse and/or a bimetal breaker.
When a vac stops working there is no way to avoid dismantling and checking the circuit with a multimeter. Power cord and switch are the most common faults.

Your machine may differ to the one shown in the video, but the process for cleaning it will remain the same.
IMPORTANT: Please turn off and unplug your Dyson Cool fan before cleaning it. We recommend using a soft, dry cloth or soft dusting brush to clean the intake holes and loop amplifier. Do not use liquids, polishes or detergents to clean your Dyson Cool fan as this could cause damage not covered under guarantee.

replacement power cord (I'm hoping I'm reading a UK-to-USA transliteration of 'Mains Lead' correctly) can be found many places like Sears Sears com or Amazon 1 Dyson DC07 DC14 DC17 DC18 DC25 Power Cord Compare to Part 905449 02... . My links have US type endplugs, if this doesn't reflect your location, amend the sources as appropriate. Rather than steal or borrow credit where due, you can see here on iFixit Dyson DC14 Power Cord Replacement for what to take apart to swap the cord out. Needless to say, make sure you have the power disconnected from the wall before opening up anything on the vacuum (or any other electrical device). Good Luck!
You may be lucky enough that the capacitor exploded from the 220 volt charge. You will have to enquire at an appliance repair shop for exact advice. Basically I would junk it and get the correct unit for the voltage and cycles in you area.

While it doesn't require a collection bag, a Dyson-brand vacuum cleaner
can still suffer the problems of wear and tear that are prone to any
vacuum cleaner--for example, a frayed power cord. If the power cord of
your Dyson vacuum cleaner has become frayed, change it immediately to
avoid a dangerous electrical mishap. You will need a replacement cord
from an electronics service center, along with a few common household
tools. You do not need electrical skills to complete the task.
Follow this steps on how to replaced the power cord assembly:
1 Unplug the Dyson vacuum
cleaner's power plug from the wall outlet. Press the button on the top
front of the plastic collection cover. Lift the cover off the front of
the vacuum cleaner and place it aside.
2 Trace the power cord to where it
enters the back bottom of the vacuum cleaner. Remove the screws from
the panel surrounding the power cord with a Phillips screwdriver. Remove
the panel. Aim the beam of a flashlight inside the compartment so that
you can see where the wires at the end of the power cord wrap around two
screws on the motor assembly. Loosen these screws with a Phillips
jeweler's screwdriver.
3 Pull the power cord out of the
compartment and dispose of it properly. Strip a 1/2 inch of insulation
from the ends of the two wires of the replacement power cord. Run the
wires into the compartment along the path of the original power
cord--pushing the wires into the grooves inside the compartment.
4 Tie a knot on the cord on the inside of the compartment to prevent the cord from being pulled out.
5 Wrap the exposed end of each
wire of the power cord around the loosened screws. Tighten the screws.
Replace the panel and reattach the screws. Stand the vacuum cleaner
right side up. Place the bottom of the plastic collection cover into the
bottom front slot on the vacuum cleaner. Push the cover back on the
front of the vacuum cleaner.
