Vacuum does not run at all

Question

I have Kirby ulimate G and have disassembled the unit to the point of taking the motor out and the switch off of motor. I can not get any continuity on switch even if I short the two terminals extruding from switch and I don't know which terminals to check on motor. Motor does not smell shorted. Trying to determine if the problem is in the switch or the motor. Can you help?
