My chopper stopped running and I noticed the rubber in the base was worn out, can I get a replacement or do I need to get a complete base?

Probably seizing up from running low on oil. And or the rings are worn out from low oil. These are splash fed so keeping oil level up is a must!!

Hi christine,

or you could try ebay..

Based on your description, I would speculate that the motor brushes are worn and the motor will need replacing. You will find a replacement for model 8965 at shaveroutlet.com. See link below

probably its the rubber that hold the blade cover to the mug is damage..if you cannot get a rubber then you need to buy new blender.good luck.

Hello switchwitch, There several parts that could cause this problem. #1 a drive belt has weakened, #2 the Agitator bearings or cushions badly worn, #3 the motor may have rubber supports gone bad. As "Number 5" stated "More Input" , Please provide the model

Please let me know what you did to fix this...I am having the same problem with ours. I noticed a recall on the same model just with a plastic tub. Thanks..

You will definitely need to change the clutch blade i.e. the black rubber rotating bit. Chaging it on the base unit may be difficult, I would check with your local Kitcheaid repairer for spare parts and repair advice.

Also check the clutch blade on the jug itself.

I'm 55 years old and i have my granny osterizer blender how can i find a rubber seal

First I would check the chopper it maybe jammed or something blocking it...
1) remove wash arm holding the center and rotate the arm.
2) remove upper wash tube rotate to the right
3) remove screen screws to remove screen
4) pull up accumulator
5) reomve screw on chopper cover...
6) check chopper
7) if chopper clear .. you will need to replace motor

to replace motor
1) remove toe cover
2)remove drain pump
3) remove 3 hold tabs by sliding them out.
4) lift out accumulator base.
5 remove and replace motor.

A loud high pitch whine while running the dishwasher means that there is something caught in the chopper assembly. To get to the chopper assembly you need to take the racks out and take the pump apart from the inside of the dishwasher. The chopper assembly looks like a metal grate with holes in it. And it might not even be stuck in the grate but somewhere in the pump area due to the water being pumped out, so the best idea is to take the whole thing apart and clean everywhere. However I do not recommend doing this unless you are completely certain you will remember where the screws and gaskets go, otherwise you risk damaging your pump or house from a leak or improper installation. You have been warned.
