Improper positioning of bowl, lid and pushers will not close the safety interlock switch. Read the manual.

Try chopping the nuts first and remove them. Prepare the rest of the dish and add the nuts, mixing them in at the last.

The gear box spidle operates the regular s-shaped blade as well as the grating/slicing disc. Does the s-shaped chopping/grinding disc still spin? If not, you can get a new gear box. If it does spin, replace the grating/slicing disc - because the plastic may be cracked, as you say. All of these parts are still available from Cuisinart, so I'm not sure why they weren't any help - I've always been able to order from them.
