It's possible that the Hoover FH40160 has a fuse that may have blown, causing it to not turn on. Here are some steps you can try to troubleshoot the issue:
  1. Check the Power Cord: Ensure that the power cord is properly connected to the vacuum and the power outlet. If it is not securely plugged in, the vacuum may not turn on.
  2. Check the Outlet: Try plugging another appliance into the outlet to ensure that it is working properly. If the outlet is not providing power, the vacuum will not turn on.
  3. Check the Fuse: Locate the fuse on the vacuum and check to see if it has blown. If it has, replace it with a new fuse of the same type and rating.
  4. Check the Motor: If the fuse is not blown and the vacuum still does not turn on, the motor may be damaged. In this case, you may need to take the vacuum to a repair shop or contact Hoover customer support for assistance.

I hope this helps you troubleshoot the issue with your Hoover FH40160 vacuum!
