Belts breaking/melting
The shaft turning bluer tells me the belt has been slipping a lot. You may have ruined it the first belt working too hard.
The brush is not turning on the dirt devil power max and not sucking up any dirt.
The belt is probably broken or off the pulley. These will build up hair and rug fiber around d the moving parts and force the belt off. I don't know the exact access on this model but a cover will need to be removed. Some models require Phillips screw removal of complete upper or lower cover. Be sure to clean out all debris and re install or replace belt with new.
