Hoover Floormate Deluxe Fh40160 Inline Fuse Replacement

Does anyone have a diagram or video of where the inline fuse is located in the Hoover FloorMate Deluxe FH40160? There used to be a video online that gave this information but I can no longer find it. I've seen where this is a common problem and one person indicated that they had replaced this fuse, but did not provide the information on how they did this. Any help is appreciated.

Try pushing the "On/Off" switch to turn the FloorMate off, unplug it, wait one minute, plug it in again and push the "On/Off" switch to prompt the brushes to rotate. If they continue to stall, clean the brushes to remove debris that might be stuck.
