DLC10 Cuisinart 7-cup food processor . . . only three years old. . . will not start. It has NOT been used excessively. . . on average 2x per month. I have cleaned it thoroughly and checked the cleanliness of the contact rod. All seems in order, yet it won't go on.
Help Help.

Your comment "if fuse is ok then switch may be faulty" doesn't indicate where the fuse is located. Must I remove the casing? Could you please be more specific. How do I find out if the fuse is ok or not ok? Thank you so much for any advice that would be helpful in fixing the problem.Your comment "if fuse is ok then switch may be faulty" doesn't indicate where the fuse is located.

There is no "mains wire" and no "fuse". We are talking about a food processor which doesn't have fuses or wires . . . .check for continuity? What are you talking about?
A woman in a kitchen preparing lunch does not have a "multimeter you can connect to the wires (to) check for continuity at both, switch on and off . . . . . cheers".

Removing a Cuisinart Food Processor Work Bowl You have to remove the pusher first by twisting it off. Then press the sides of the pusher sleeve inward and slide the sleeve up and out of place. Then twist off the lid - all twisting on these food processors works either clockwise or counterlcokwise - not both. Then twist the work bowl to the left (clockwise). Voila! -Tha Mp3 Doctor
Those older Cuisinart food processors have motors that generally last forever. But a replacement bowl can cost $118.00 or more. The newer processors like the DLC-8S do have a 3-year general warranty and a 5-year motor warranty. The new DLC-2011, 2007, 2014 series etc. have 10-year motor warranties. I like the collect the oldies, but the new ones have few problems even though they are made in China. If an old processor's plastic breaks, you have to buy a completely new bowl set - if a new processor's plastic breaks, then you can buy a single component piece to solve the problem. Hope this helps.
Remove the work bowl from the base of the food processor, and separate the bowl, lid, and pusher sleeve. Plug the base into the wall outlet, turn the food processor ON, and then use a pen to press in the dark grey or black button on top of the base of the food processor - if you hear some kind of noise, then your motor is still good. Put the work bowl on first, with the handle facing the front of the food processor. Put the lid on, with the lid lined up with the handle of the work bowl. Put the pusher sleeve in the lid, with the metal piece facing the front of the processor. Your processor should now turn on.
If it doesn't call Cuisinart and see if you are still in-warranty (3-year warranty).
