Is it new? You know if you don't keep your filter clean and hose cleared of debris they don't last long never run without a bag and or filter unless sucking liquids and liquid only
You may be able to fix it with a simple 15 amp car fuse. My model 14LT400 suddenly stopped after a shoelace wrapped around the impeller. Here is a picture of what i did. The car fuse literally slides right into where the thermal fuse is connected and had blown. Tip: either before or after you get the fuse in place remove the plastic around the fuse. I have put anther 15-20 hours on the vacuum without any issues
Contact the manufacturer of device. They may help you. If not, make sure that current is reaching the on/off switch and that the power is reaching the motor - if power gets to motor and still nada then the issue is probably with the brushes not making proper contact with the commutator.
Motors have a thermal safety fuse in the field winding. If it overheats, it will blow and either can be replaced or the whole field winding will have to be replaced. It is wired and is not considered to be a user servicable item.
I just picked up a similar model someone was throwing away. turns out there is a thermal fuse inside the motor housing that blew. I just need to find the values of the fuse and repalce with appropriate size. motor runs when fuse is bypassed.
I had the same problem with the same model. Turned out to be the thermal fuse on the motor housing, between the switch and the windings. Took it apart and replaced the melted solder with 14 guage copper wire. Works fine! No thermal protection but I don't use it for long at a time anyway. Check the switch for continuity, if good then check the thermal fuse for continuity. If good, it's the motor.
