Starting at one end of the hose and working towards the other end, press the hose to try and feel for the clog, when you find it, press down on the obstruction and gently knead it. This may break the clog up so it can pass through the hose. Remove the hose from the inlet, push a DRY garden hose though through the vacuum hose to push the clog out.
Check inside each inlet, occasionally, an object gets stuck directly inside the fitting and you can remove it with your fingers.
Plug the vacuum hose into each inlet. Put your hand over the end of the hose to create a seal, then pull your hand off the hose. Do this a few times and it may loosen the clog and send the obstruction to your dirt canister.
Try running a plumbers snake though the inlet to push the clog out.Open the valve door and feel the top of the valve hole. If you feel one ball bearing then it is a microswitch valve. If you feel two brass pins then it is a pin jack valve.

Check the connection between the handle and top wand for arching. If that looks fine, check the hose for exposed wires.
