My vacuum cleaner (ordinary upright type, electrolux) just stopped

died again after less than a second. Tried again, same result. Now
there's no motor sound at all - I don't think it's an electrical cut out
as I tried again after half an hour and it still didn't work. Any chance
of fixing it, or do I chuck it?

Thanks,

Could be a broken wire, a connection come adrift, or faulty motor or
switch. Bad motor is generally the least likely, so probably simple to
repair if you can use a £5 multimeter.
