Belle minimix 150 worked yesterday but 'dead' today. Usual checks carried out, power supply etc. No noise/hum to suggest gearbox issues. Any suggestions?

fuse or lose connection in plug or connection to motor. Also could be the cable has fatigued and snapped.

Thanks Pablo but power into 'housing' ok, I'm thinking switch or capacitor .......perhaps?

switches are known to go, most widely available spare part on ebay.
