Westwood T1200 electromagnet disengaged for no reason?

I was using my Westwood T1200 when the electromagnet just disengaged and would not switch back on. I can hear a solenoid clicking under the dash but it is not kicking in the big 'clunk' that engages the cutter. Any ideas please. H

So the relay is clicking but it is not switching the electromagnet. Check the supply to the relay contact and that the power is getting from the relay to the electromagnet and that the earth return from the electromagnet is OK.

Follow the power!
