My rarely used Sunbeam Blender Model #4181 stopped working

The gasket is not available by itself, you need the blade assembly part number 123250-000-000 available from Sunbeam at 1-800-458-8407.

If you cannot find one, well in the "Old" days we used to make gaskets out of Thick Brown Paper Bags. Using the OLD gasket as a template simply trace around it & cut it out. Lightly Oil it and use it as normal. Usually works great, sometimes you need two, to get the thickness.

The motor has burned out. Check with the manufacturer about warranty status for the blender or exchange it.

Sorry to say we do not repair. You will have to contact sunbeam here at this link for service.

Hi,
I have a better than original seal made of a material approved by the FDA. Let me know if you are still interested.

Cheers,

My IKON 600 Blender fuse had blown. It was located on the circuit board and can be found by removing the bottom of the blender. Fuse is Fast Blow 10A, metric 5mmx20mm. The fuse blew because the bearing in the bse of the jar froze. Bearing # 608-RS. The beraring froze because the seal in the base of the jar was leaking. Solution: Clean seak surfaces, replace bearing and fuse. Total cost of $6 with my labor.

need to resolder the triac located on the Printed circuit board this part is on an aluminum heat sink, and the third leg is most of the times the one with a broken or poor soldering joint due to the vibration of blender
