The blender is plugged in, but it still will not turn on.

Make sure the blender cord is plugged in correctly. Also make sure the outlet is properly functioning.

Make sure the blender cord is not severed or detached from plug. If wires are frayed, then use electrical tape to fix.

The attachment piece may not be put on correctly. Double check by removing and re-attaching to the motor body.

Proper assembly instructions are in the instruction manual below:

If the high speed setting is used longer than recommended, then the motor will overheat and no longer work. Do not hold the 'High,' button for longer than 50 seconds at a time. If this occurs, then a motor body replacement may be needed.

The motor body and the blender shaft attachment will not fit together into a single piece.

The heat from the drying cycle on most dishwashers is too hot for the plastic to handle without warping. Taking it out before the drying cycle or not running the dry cycle at all is the best solution. But if the plastic warps, a new blender shaft attachment is recommended.

The inside latch of the motor body that holds two pieces together is cracked or dislodged. A new motor body is recommended.

The blender is plugged in and running, but the blades are not rotating.

When activating the Smart Stick the motor will start. If the motor is not running, then it may be overheated and will need to be replaced.

If the motor is running but the blades are not moving, the gear might be worn down and will need to be replaced.

The blades have broken off of the blender shaft. Food that is too dense may break the blades.
