The reset feature did not work for me, so i have to replace the brush motor. But I can't figure out how to get to the brush motor without breaking a plastic part! HELP! I've removed just about every screw I can find and also a clear plastic 'ring' type pin holder. I still cant reach the motor.

there is a reset button under the cover that houses the on/off switches. remove the handle/wand and look on the back (where the top of the hose sits) for 2 screws (its a torx/star head screw size t10 i believe). remove them and locate 4 small locking tabs that hold the switch cover to the frame of the vacuum. Depress them and pop the cover off (2 towards the top and 2 towards the bottom). Youll see 3 switches (2 square red buttons and one small cylindrical shaped one). Push the small red one (the one to the left if my memory serves me right). you should hear a click. if you do than the switch is reset. if not check all connections to all 3 switches. if you see nothing loose or not connected, you may need a new brushbar motor. try it

This is over a year too late, but perhaps this will help other people in your situation. Here is how the switch assembly should go together:
