You should be able to replace that part. Do you have a pic? What's the make and model?

SOURCE: I have a Cuisinart 14 cup food processor which will not turn on

Hi-

We have a Cuisinart and these tools are very rugged- so I doubt that the motor is bad. My only suggestion would be to make sure that the safety catch is being actuated when you click the cover clockwise to secure the mixing chamber. There is a hole in the housing that the acuator pin sticks into to disengage the safety switch. Perhaps the switch is not being pressed off.

Hope this helps,

Jeff

SOURCE: I want to open the base of the processor, but can't find screws

Remove the 4 rectangular rubber pads on the bottom.

Later you will need some Rubber Adhesive Glue to place them back.

This will give you access to the 4 Phillips screws.

I presently own a Cuisinart Food Processor Model# DLC-7.

I hope this helps you.

SOURCE: I am unable to remove the disc stem

My disc stem got stuck. I added boiling water to the bowl and left it a few minutes. After some jiggling of the stem it came off.

Safety pin on food processor won't retract

It sounds like the safety interlock system on your Cuisinart 14 cup food processor is engaged, preventing the bowl from fitting securely onto the base. Here are some steps you can try to resolve the issue:
  1. Unplug the unit from the electrical outlet.
  2. Use a small, pointed object such as a toothpick to gently push the white safety pin up and out of its locked position. This may take some effort.
  3. Check the base of the food processor for any obstructions or debris that may be preventing the bowl from fitting correctly. Clean any debris you find.
  4. Reinsert the bowl onto the base, ensuring that it is properly aligned and twisted into place.
  5. Press the bowl down firmly onto the base until you hear and feel it click into place.
  6. Plug the unit back in and test it to see if the safety interlock system has been disengaged and the food processor is working normally.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, it may be necessary to take the unit to a professional repair technician or contact Cuisinart customer service for further assistance.

GE 14-cup digital food processor; bowl cracked, either by lid fastening or ice cubes in the bowl while chopping mode; don't know exactly. Is this covered by warranty ? Or are separate bowls available...

how old is your processor? did you buy an additional warranty when you purchased it? If so you should read the paperwork. Whats covered,and not, should be listed. you can probably buy a replacement bowl for it on the website.

My brand new Cuisinart 14 cup food processor won't turn on. All the components are locked in place and it's plugged in. Help

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.

Good luck!
