Cant take apart ice crusher portion of unit - Margaritaville Frozen Concoction (DM1000) Blender

It would be the height of good luck if the device is worth repairing.

Replacement motor components like many other replacements, are prohibitively expensive and can be difficult to locate. Usually it is much cheaper to replace the appliance.

First it must be dismantled and thoroughly examined. If there are any electronics involved that happened to survive, they are unlikely to be reliable over the long-term as it is inevtable they have been over-stressed and probably seriously weakened.

The motor is likely to have run at a greater speed than it was designed for...

If the device or appliance is a premium quality unit and the repair is simple and cheap, such as a repairable circuit board, it would be worth taking a chance. Your first task is to gather the information you need to make a decision - list of parts, prices, availability, time factor...

can you hear the motor working.

The seals, bushings or bearings in the attachment are bad. Especially if you have run it through the dishwasher.

Is the black plastic part, seal, and glass portion snugly fitted together? If so, it's likely that the black plastic part isn't making contact with the pin. On mine I have to turn it about a quarter turn to lock it to the motor/ drive pin.

If I have a hard object such as ice cubes too firmed placed in the blender against the blade and the glass, I shake the container to loosen the materials and reseat it onto the drive pin as mentioned above.
