Hi,
Lie machine on its side pull back handle as if vacuuming & switch on (KEEP YOUR FINGERS & ANY LOOSE CLOTHING CLEAR OF BRUSH ROLLER)
Brush should spin if it doesnt ensure clutch control knob on side of machine is in drive position if it isnt rotate knob by hand to drive brush should now spin.
If it doesnt & your machine has A clutch either clutch will need replacing or belts will need replacing.
Manuals are available to replace belts & remove the clutch from this site http://dysonmanuals.llc.nu/index.htm

The full bag light comes on when it is getting full or a blockage in the hose or the dirt inlet by the brush roll. Other then that, there is a circuit board called the computer controller, part #5740ER and is giving you a false reading and causing a shut down.

1. Check the on/off button these can also be troublesome and if you've stood on the cable once or twice you could have a break in the wire and it's shorting, check by turning on and wiggle cable around where it enters machine.
2. Faulty thermocouple, it is held in a white plastic housing screwed with one T15 torx screw to the motor housing. You could replace it but I just shorted mine with some wire and it hasn't failed since and more importantly not caught fire yet!

If this has a rotory brush (spins) than check the belt. Take the bottom part off, (should be about four screws) and check to ensure the belt is on and the motor shaft is not just spinning. Usually when this happens you'll smell the belt burning. After so long the belt gets thinner, and will break.
If the belt is in good repair, turn it on with it laid on it's back, and watch to see the brush(es) are turning. If not, I suggest contacting the customer service department of it's manufacturer for further details and repair solutions.
Please, let me know if you need any further assistance with this.
