Hi, My unit does not have a blockage, the motor turns freely, the macerator is all clean etc. When under electric power the motor simply does not turn but the unit does get warm. What could be wrong? How could I fix it?
Thanking you in advance

Capacitor get one from RS or Maplin.

If the motor is humming it could be a winding thats gone,some motors have a capacitor attached which could be faulty but it would have to be tested to find the root cause
