The switch could be bad. Check for continuity. | ||

I'd like to help but my 15 year-old companion cat died a few days ago, and my girlfriend's daughter just had a baby yesterday and I've had this little thing in my arms for an hour earlier today, oh my, lots of emotions these days! | ||

The devil's in the details...
The devil is definitely in the details when it comes to wiring. I thought I had everything correct on a Silverado I was rehabbinbg last month. It turned on and ran great without any attachments, but when I hooked up a hose and a power nozzle, I discovered I had two wires reversed on the cord winder, which caused the power nozzle to run when the machine was off and vice versa.
If you don't own a multitester, you should definitely invest in one so you can detect the short and open circuits. I'm personally more fond of the older analog meters but you can pick a cheap digital model up from Harbor Freight for about the cost of a hamburger. Sometimes they will even run a coupon to get one for free with any purchase. Just out of curiosity, did you test the motor before installing it to ensure it is indeed working? | ||

The gray-coloured cord is your power cord, isn't it? | ||

I don't see any wire coming from the bag door switch, did you cancel them or were there any before? | ||

This vacuum never had the pop open shut off feature .The wires are under the cord rewind cover .Wired to the motor and switch whit out a cord real.All the wires are hiden under the latch and rear cover.There is NO CONTROL AT THE BAG door thus is not a auto lux straight suction only.

At this point, it’s already wired up so plug it in and fire it up. Your connections look good and it could be a possibility that the original cord was shorted so Give it a whirl. | ||

Your picture doesn't show the third marrette very well, does it hold one of the wires coming from the motor and the green wire going to the switch ? | ||
