Magimix 3500 motor or switch problem?

Hi, my 1980 Magimix 3500 has a problem. It works fine in the 'on' position, but the pulse function is running longer than should. Is this a fault that might cost a lot to repair, or could I just live with it, as it's not a big problem? Thanks

My MagiMix food processor is running but there is not much power and the spindle is turning very slowly. Does anyone have any repair suggestions?

It could be two things.

The carbon brushes to the motor need replacing.
or
The motor capacitor is failing.

If your motor is running Slow or just Humming and not going round, it could be the capacitor, this can be caused by running in a damp atmosphere or continuous use ie commercial.

My magimix 5200 won’t Turn on, I have checked the fuse and changed it and it is dead. Do you you think it is the motor ? And is it expensive to fix.

Hi, if it is the motor, (sounds like) then yes it is expensive to fix. You may be better off getting a refurbished one. :-)

Hi my magimix 320xl won’t turn on the Handel clicks in ok so I’m not sure what the problem is it’s only been used a couple of times hope you can help me thank you Christine

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.

The Magimix makes a terrible (loud and harsh but short) clicking sound when turned on, either regular or pulse. It sounds ok when running and performs its functions as usual. This is happening ever since I...

you might have damaged the gear-train, Depending on what you payed for this unit it might be best to put up with it for as long as you can and purchase a new one when it brakes down

Dead motor in Magimix Cuisine 5100

Remove and check if there is any fault of a brush contact or switch contact or if the load trip switch had reset.
If the power is coming to the motor and is not running you need to confirm fully if the windings are open , if so replace motor.
if not remove and reset the setting of the brush/commutator.

I have a small Cuisinart food processor and I cannot figure out how to turn it on. It has two levers low and high. I have it plugged in and the lid on? Please help. Fiona Slattery 858-752-8591

Hi,

Your PowerBlend Duet™ comes with a food processor button. This button is the perfect speed for all your food processing tasks. Always use this speed when using the food processor. You may also use the Pulse button with this function for pulse-chopping.
To use your food processor, make sure that the bowl is assembled properly and the blade or slicing/shredding disc and the cover are locked into place.
When you use the control panel, the LED will light next to each button you press.
Press the On button. For continuous operation, press the Food Processor button. Motor will start if you have followed assembly instructions.
To turn motor off, press the Food Processor button again or the Off button.
For on/off operation, called pulse-chopping or pulsing, press the On button, press the Pulse button, and then press and release the
Food Processor button the desired number of times. Motor runs as long as you hold the Food Processor button down. The motor stops when you release control switch. Try it a few times.
You control the duration and frequency of pulses by the length of time you hold the Food Processor button down and the rate at which you press it. Pulses should be short bursts. Allow enough time between pulses to let food in work bowl fall to bottom.
Always use the Food Processor button for pulse/chopping. Never turn cover back and forth to start and stop processor.
