If your KitchenAid food chopper has stopped working, don’t despair. In most cases, you can troubleshoot the problem yourself and get it back up and running in no time. Here are some of the most common reasons why a KitchenAid food chopper might not be working, along with instructions on how to fix each issue:
1. The power cord is not plugged in.
This may seem like an obvious one, but it’s worth checking to make sure that the power cord is securely plugged into both the chopper and the outlet. If the cord is loose, the chopper will not receive any power and will not be able to operate.
2. The chopper bowl is not properly attached.
The chopper bowl must be properly attached to the base in order for the chopper to work. If the bowl is not attached correctly, the chopper will not be able to rotate and will not be able to chop food. To attach the bowl, simply align the bowl with the base and twist it clockwise until it clicks into place.
3. The blade is dull.
A dull blade will not be able to chop food effectively. If you find that your chopper is not chopping food as well as it used to, it may be time to replace the blade. To replace the blade, simply unscrew the old blade and screw on the new blade.
4. The motor is burned out.
If the motor is burned out, the chopper will not be able to operate. A burned-out motor is usually caused by overloading the chopper or by using it for too long without giving it a chance to cool down. If you think that the motor may be burned out, you will need to replace the chopper.
5. The chopper is overloaded.
If the chopper is overloaded, it will not be able to chop food effectively. To avoid overloading the chopper, do not put too much food in the bowl at once. If you need to chop a large amount of food, do it in batches.
6. The chopper is not clean.
If the chopper is not clean, food particles can build up and prevent the chopper from working properly. To clean the chopper, simply disassemble it and wash all of the parts in warm soapy water.
7. The chopper is defective.
In some cases, a KitchenAid food chopper may not be working because it is defective. If you have tried all of the troubleshooting tips above and your chopper is still not working, you may need to contact KitchenAid for assistance.
