Check the fuse in the plug 1st, but you may have ripped the wire/s from inside the hover out of there connector. If you are able to, you may be able to take the hoover apart and reconnect the wires, if you feel this is something you are not happy with doing you may be able to take it to a repair shop! If its still under warranty you may be able to take it back and get it replaced?

Take it to your local vac shop for repair.

Check to see if there is hair or string or something preventing it from moving. Or, you might have a button or something that stops the roller from moving for suction for the hose only if it detaches for use that way. If it's not that, unplug the vacuum and see if you can move the roller by hand. If not, take the roller off by unscrewing the shield, probably 4 screws and check to see if the pegs that hold the roller in are in properly or broken. Rollers aren't expensive. If it's broken, just replace it. But, I'm thinking that there is something like string holding it. Another thing might be the belt is broken. If that's the case, do this: First, make sure the vacuum is unplugged. Turn it over and you will see that on the rollers a cover. This cover should have about 4 screws holding it on. Unscrew and remove the cover. Note how it was put on. Take a look at the roller brush ends where it goes into the sides of the vacuum. Pull the roller straight out, noting how the pegs that hold it into the vacuum are situated. Take the broken belt off. It might be attached to one side of the roller. Note which side it is on and which side of the vacuum it is on. If it's not attached, no problem, just note which side it should be on. Now, on the bottom where the belt goes around, should be a silver peg that the belt slides over. Sometimes it's hard to see, but it's there. Take the broken belt to the store and match it up to a new one. Some are thinner than others, smaller or rounder than others. Be sure to get the right one. Now, back home, comes the hard part. Put the new belt on the proper side of the roller, only. Try and get the roller back into the vacuum snugly and secure. Once you do that, holding the roller with one hand, snug against the vacuum, pull the belt down and slide it onto that silver peg. If it needs to be twisted on, do that, but it probably doesn't need to be twisted. Once you have it on the peg, move the roller around with your hand to settle the belt into the proper position. With that done, replace the roller cover and you're done, Bob's your uncle! Plug the vacuum in and have at it.

Sounds like a clog in the plastic that the hoses are connected to. Take bottom off so you can get in with a wire with a small hook and run all the way to the bag you might have to work from the bag opening down too. You should find a big wad hiding some ware in the housing this is an all to common problem with most brands of this type of vacuum.

"Blowing" FusesWhen a fuse blows, replace it with an identical [same Amperage rating] new fuse.IF the replacement fuse also blows, then that is an indication that there is either a short circuit condition in that circuit, OR you have an overload condition due to too many electricity using devices connected to that circuit, or one that draws too much electrical current [current is measured in Amperes (Amps), or milliamps (thousandths of an Amp)].The fix" for repeatedly blowing fuses is to troubleshoot the circuit involved, find and identify the fault, properly repair it, and then install another good fuse

When a fuse trips, the current was to high. If the fuse keeps tripping, you really have a problem. It could be as simple as a defective capacitor, but also a shortage in one of the coils. It would be wise to bring the VAX to a repair shop and ask what it will cost to repair. Sometimes when they need to replace a motor, you are better of with a new machine. I hope it is a minor defect.
