Sounds like a break in cord or plug somewhere. I am not familiar with the particular vacuum myself. Another thought I have when looking around your vacuum cleaner have you seen a red reset button anywhere at all?
Or by chance does your vacuum cleaner have a plug comes off....... (i.e. like a computer)
a few thoughts

SOURCE: Kenmore 33721 does not start
Same thing happened to me. After taking the cover off I noticed a wiring diagram on the inside cover. There is a fuse between the on/off button and the motor, sure enough the fuse had blown. There is no mention of a fuse in the manual! The vacuum works great again.

There is a reset button at the back of the powerhead. The user manual can be downloaded from the electrolux website, although I didn't find it very useful. There was some info on how to change the powerhead drive belt.
SOURCE: Electrolux Epic 6500SR Full Bag sensor working, Does not Reset properly
The problem was a sticking switch that was not being reset. The vacuum on/off switch mechanism is comprised of two switches. One is the main switch that turns the vacuum on and off. The second is a shut off switch that gets tripped when the full bag sensor is engaged. This second switch is supposed to get reset when you push the on/off switch on the outside of the machine. The full bag shutoff switch was stiff and it, therefore, was taking a couple of presses of the on/off switch to move the shutoff switch back into the running position.
SOURCE: Kenmore Model 116 upright beltless vacuum, agitator will not turn
I had the same problem. The agitator stopped turning after I sucked up a foreign object (my wife's watch) and it got jammed in the intake. After removal of the watch the agitator did not spin when turning on the machine, and the reset button never deployed (it remained buried in its housing and would not depress with a paper clip). The agitator was not bound and I could manually move it in both directions with ease. Faced with prospect of paying $125 or more for a repair, a good sharp kick to the chassis from the top promptly fixed the problem. I have found that kicking malfunctioning electronics often works.
SOURCE: Simplicity 7 Series Vacuum. Suddenly stopped.
There is a thermal reset button on your vaccum. It is on the rear of the unit, just below the attachments and next to the sticker with the serial numer etc on it. The vacuum is designed to turn itself of if too much heat gets built up to prevent it from "burning up."

I know this is an old question but I didn't see the specific answer that might help someone. There is a circuit breaker on the Simplicity Freedom models that can be reset when this occurs. If inspecting for and clearing a clog still doesn't allow the machine to come on, try resetting that little circuit breaker. It is in the back of the machine, near the power cord.
