I was making peanut butter in mine and it ceased up I put it in reverse and foward several times I learned when it comes to dense or frozen fruits and vegetables smaller amounts are better Not being there I can't say much but take it apart. See if it works if it does good to go... good luck

I have the same problem on two I have. The exception is they only run 4 seconds. I talked to Moultrie CS and they said there is a reset button on the timer. Haven't looked yet because they are in the woods. Give them a call. Maybe they will get after it if there are more calls received.

Yikes. Sorry. I would first contact the manufacturer. See if they have had any history with this problem.

I bought a Chefs Star Juicer, only three times, the last run only three minutes to stop moving, and now it has not been able to use, I suspect it is not good quality, perhaps my bad luck?

The belt may be broken or the motor burned up....both of those happened to me! Get your money back if you still can!!!

Same thing happened to me a few weeks ago. I called Blendtec & they asked to listen to the motor, serial numbers, etc....after about 15 mins. they agreed to send me a new jar. They advised me I should not hold down the jar while the blender is in use as this will put more pressure on the rubber seal. Be careful as I

Google omega juicers, go to their website call their 800 number. They stand behind their products as far as I know.

I also had that problem on both of the ones that I purchased. After trying for hours to repair/operate them, I finally found the solution. The damn things are absolutely worthless junk. Do what I did, walk to the closest body of water and give it a fling. It will make you feel better later.

There is no fluid in there. There was grease packed in the disconnect, that dries out and causes it to fail.

All models are under warranty for up to 10 years. If there are any issues Omega will replace the parts. There is also a standard warranty by Amazon

The water if any isn't a problem. The only issue I have had was when it got really cold this winter, the seeds in the tray portion froze after it got wet. One quick tap and it was fine, the rest of the food was dry. I wish I had gotten the largest one!

The rubber top disconnected from the dropper on mine after a few uses. I threw it out after because It simply didn't work.

Chip, I had the same problem several times. I finally registered my unit on Broan's website and included my disappointment with the issue. I was contacted the next day by their customer service department with the phone # for their service department. I called them immediately, they pulled up my information and explained that they had identified the problem and it could be easily fixed with a replacement heater and fan element. The original unit did not start fast enough and would burn the thermal fuse, the new motor started faster and therefore the thermal fuse would not blow. The fuse is part of the heater element to prevent overheating. I explained to the rep that it was -7 outside and I didn't feel like going into the attic again to replace the unit. he explained that I could replace the part fromt he inside and it was a matter of 2 screws and a wire harness. It literally took me less than 1 minute to replace the part and it has worked better than the original since. My previous ones only lasted less than 2 weeks. I was very satisfied with Broan which is more than I can say about the big box store I bought it from. The # for the technical support department at 800-637-1453. That should solve the problem.

I have had an omega 8005 for 3+years which I use everyday, making about 1.5 qts.. Really liked it until 4 months ago when the juicing screen developed a crack. This crack is progressively getting worse and it's just a matter of time before it fails completely. I have been unable to get a replacement from Omega and they do not respond to emails sent thru their "contact us" option. All the part suppliers have this item on back order and I'm on a waiting list w/ one of them. What i have learned is that the screen has a defect and the redesigned screen also is prone to breaking. I'm changing brands solely because of Omega's lousy customer service.
