The food processor shows the red light but will not actually do anything and makes no noise at all. Does this mean the motor has gone completely? I have only had it 18 months so am hoping not. Any suggestions?
Cuisinart Food Processors – Motor Test
First, do a motor test by removing the work bowl completely and using a pen to press in the grey button on top of the base (with the food processor turned on of course), toward the back. If the processor spins, the motor is still good. At that point, I would inspect the work bowl pieces, lid, pusher assembly, etc for cracks/damage. If all appears well, insert ALL the pieces back into place and try again. If even one piece is out of place, the processor will not spin.
If it no longer spins, the motor has a problem. (This one has a 20-year motor warranty)
Good luck!
