Motor burned out

If your Magimix food processor won't turn on despite the handle clicking in, there may be a problem with the power supply or the motor of the device. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

1. Check that the power cord is securely plugged into an outlet and the processor's base.
2. Make sure the outlet is working by plugging in another device.
3. If the outlet is fine, then try plugging the Magimix into a different outlet.
4. If the device still doesn't turn on, it's possible that the motor has overheated. Allow the device to cool down for a few hours and try turning it on again.
5. If none of these steps work, you may need to contact the manufacturer or a repair technician for further assistance.

It's also worth noting that the Magimix 3200XL comes with a 30-year motor guarantee, so if the motor is the problem and the device is still under warranty, you may be eligible for a replacement.

Check to see if the motor burned out by doing a continuity test of motor windings.

If you are making it do alot of work it may be slowing down enough to heat up. This will trip a thermal cutoff. Fortunately that one resets and you don't have to have an expensive repair. But now it may have overheated a few times and will start to burn off the varnish that insulates one winding from another. It will eventually burn out if you work it too hard. Can you get a more powerful one? Do you do this often?

motor is out because using processor more tan 3 minutes.it is my fist time using this processor

not sure if this helps, but we bought the same FP270 11 months ago & use it 3-4 times a week with juicing attachment with carrots & apples. Last week the motor started to smell, and motor burnt out completely today with dust & noxious smoke coming out of the bottom. The Good Guys exchanged it for FPM270 with no hassles under warranty. I don't think the motor is powerful enough for serious kitchen work & had many cracks in the plastic parts.

Hi there: hate to say but it sounds like the Garb D.'s motor has failed. Perhaps due to a jam up in the blades. The motor will cook before the circuit breaker if the breaker it is on is greater than 15amp. Solution... Turn the power off and try to turn the grinding impeller blades.. If they spin freely on first attempt, which I doubt they will, then the motor is K-put. Hopefully it has a built in thermal trip and will reset itself. But while you have the power is off, clean it out. If you do that and it hums only, you will need to replace motor. sorry

It is overheating, probably because it is being overworked. Some common problems are overloading the bowl, or forcing too much food into the hopper on top. Once it overheats, it will kick out again rather quickly the next time unless the motor has time to cool. If you are shredding cheese, slow down on the amount of cheese forced into the blade. If you are trying to mix heavy dough you are probably overloading the bowl as well. This machine can't handle over a pound of pizza dough without overheating. The reset button is there to keep from burning the motor out. If you continue to reset and force feed the machine, it will burn the motor out. Good luck, hope this helps.

Turn it over and remove the screws.
