There is a small plastic piece on the lids 1-196 that slides into a slot in theback of the processer and is s safety interlock. unless your new lid will fit into that it will nto work. I know because i bought the wrong lid after the exact plastic piece broke on my original and I could not get the new one to work... right now my "work around" is to put both lids on.. the newer one does have the piece but its it the wrong place and I have to hold them while I use the processor.. sorry

I can't get the damn thing to start and I tested it in the store. No manual. What do you suggest?

Don't switch off using the lid interlock or that will be next to go. It is to stop you from running it without the lid. Turn it off at the wall socket. Cuisinart Spares https://www.google.com/search?q=Cuisinart+Class+Pro+parts ..

Try giving Cuisinart a call, parts suppliers I'vr looked say part is no longer available... https://www.cuisinart.com/shopping/parts-and-accessories/details/AFP-7BKGCLR-MP

You don't say what model, but all Cuisinarts have a safety interlock built in to the bowl assembly. The cover must be removed from the bowl to release this interlock before you can remove the bowl from the motor base.

It sounds like the safety interlock system on your Cuisinart 14 cup food processor is engaged, preventing the bowl from fitting securely onto the base. Here are some steps you can try to resolve the issue:

1. Unplug the unit from the electrical outlet.
2. Use a small, pointed object such as a toothpick to gently push the white safety pin up and out of its locked position. This may take some effort.
3. Check the base of the food processor for any obstructions or debris that may be preventing the bowl from fitting correctly. Clean any debris you find.
4. Reinsert the bowl onto the base, ensuring that it is properly aligned and twisted into place.
5. Press the bowl down firmly onto the base until you hear and feel it click into place.
6. Plug the unit back in and test it to see if the safety interlock system has been disengaged and the food processor is working normally.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, it may be necessary to take the unit to a professional repair technician or contact Cuisinart customer service for further assistance.

That is a sort of clutch to protect the motor. Try Cuisinart direct and be sure to include the model number, '13 cup' is just a size to all the 13 cup models they have made over the years. https://www.google.com/search?q=cuisinart+elemental+13-cup+food+processor+replacement+parts You may be able to repair those hooks with J-B Weld Liquid Metal or epoxy putty. If you can clean it well, it is extremely strong. https://www.google.com/search?q=J-B+Weld ..

eReplacement Parts states that is the right part. https://www.ereplacementparts.com/cuisinart-dlc8s-pro-custom-food-processor-parts-c-147322_147329_147425.html How about direct from Cuisinart Kathleen? Although strangely, they quote part DLC-839ATX-1 as the correct one. Could your processor NOT be a DLC-8S I wonder? https://www.cuisinart.com/shopping/parts-and-accessories/details/dlc-839atx-1 ..

try WD40, then heat it with a hair dryer

For cuisinart food processors that won't shut off: with bowl off - not attached - hold OFF button down while plugging in. With a screwdriver or other implement, press the button that gets depressed on motor base when bowl is attached and snapped into place ( small flat rectangular piece that clicks the bowl into place. While still pressing OFF button, press this a few times times, unplug then release the OFF button. I tried several suggested combinations of button pushing and unplugging, and this seems to have fixed it!

Yes it does. It is a snug fit on the blade shaft, if you mean the tall shaft that powers the shredder discs? The short one that holds the cutting blade is not removable.The tall stem is shown hereCuisinart DLC-8 Detachable StemItem # 943070https://www.kitchenworksinc.com/cuisinart-food-processor-parts/cuisinart-dlc-8-parts/..

The control board (AKA PCB) will need to be replaced.

THEN IT NEEDS REPLACED WITH A NEW MODEL

The DLC-8F bowl will not work for the DLC-8M, as I understand the parts list for the 11 cup food processors. However, this site, https://www.kitchenworksinc.com/cuisinart-dlc-8-4-piece-tritan-bowl-kit/ , has a work bowl for the DLC-8 food processor. The bowl fits all models of DLC-8 except the DLC-8E and DLC-8F. The link for the work bowl alone is https://www.kitchenworksinc.com/cuisinart-dlc-8-tritan-workbowl/ . I hope this helps. Cindy Wells
