Hi All. I have a DC07 and every time I switch it on the 13amp fuse blows.
Has any one got any ideas?

What Madrat said. It likely wants a new flex. I suppose a motor is also a possibility, but a faulty motor seldom blows the fuse.

Do a continuity test on the flex first. If ok then check the motor.
I recently changed a motor on a DC19 where the brushes were obviously severely burnt. However it still didn't run with a new motor fitted until I changed the fuse as well-so it can happen.
