Morrison's Morphy Richards Soup Maker, Model 2164012

Why has my Morphy Richards soup makers motor stopped working?

I'm not one for discarding items but after 9 months this product stopped blending. However, I'm sure it still manages to heat the temperature .

Model Number: 501015

Serial Number: 15018445

I have held on to this product in the hope I can fix it + bring it back to life. The signal is working when I plug it in at the mains. It appears the motor just won't operate as it should. I've looked inside the lid but it seems impossible to get beyond its exterior. Can you suggest if it's worth keeping hold of or not?

Thank you in advance

Ours stopped working and the shaft would not spin at all. Opened it up and it had leaked through the seal: the bearings at the bottom below the motor had seized as they had become contaminated (and wet). Pretty poor given it's less than two years old.

Ours is just under 3 years old - works other than blender part maybe Jim Purcells resolution is the way forward. Pretty shoddy for a machine costing over £100.00. Will avoid Morphy Richards in future.

This is our second machine and both motors packed up. Threw away the original and purchased another, after casual use and about 24 months the second one packed in. After reading some of the comments on this site I decided to strip it down. Nothing to loose and just this minute stripped ours down bearing fully rusted, managed to use some emery paper, wd40 and elbow grease, refitted back together and presto it runs a treat.

Hi @makedomend ,

According to this link, there is a 1 year (possibly 2 year) guarantee on the product.

Follow the directions as to what to do to make a claim for a manufacturer’s guarantee repair or replacement.

That’s what guarantees or warranties are for.

Hello,

I tried this a couple of years ago as the product was a gift + came with no receipt. MRs advised me to purchase a new product, which I will not + could not help me further.

Thank you anyhow

@makedomend ,

As best as I can find out there are no spare parts available for the soup maker. So even if you managed to open it and find the cause of the problem, unless it were something as simple as a loose or broken connection you may not be able to repair it anyway.

Perhaps you are right to avoid manufacturers whose products are made this way i.e irreparable due to design and a lack of spare parts - planned obsolescence?

The landfill mountains continue to grow unfortunately as recycling efforts are being overwhelmed

The evidence of product waste I guess. Thank you

I’ve had 2 Morphy Richards soup makers, & both failed after only 2-3 years of occasional use. MR recommends buying a new one as they don't carry out repairs, which I find shocking in this day & age of being ‘greener’. If they could be repaired, it would save a lot of unwanted waste, but I guess its down to profits for the manufacturer being more important, by selling more products.

The same issue, obviously a design fault, read the above and binned it. Won't buy MR again.

Hi. I also had this problem and noted the chopping spindle was extremely hard to turn.

I took the machine apart carefully and the bearing was extremely tight and with a clean re-grease and high-speed spin with a drill, mine has got back to normal working order.

Hmm mine is the same. Hard to turn the blades by hand. Now it blends again but it sounds ropey. I’ll do some surgery on the guts as above, and report back!

さんによる

After some serious surgery, I took mine all apart. The bottom shaft seal is ( I’ll be kind) less than perfect. After a while, moisture works its way into the shaft bearing and it seizes up.

I threw lots of WD40 and other lubricantants at it, tried two soups and it made two very noisy attempts and died.

Solotion(!). Bin man and buy a new one😤 Got the one with the sauté option. So far, it’s ok.

My 3rd one has stopped working…one day made soup…next day won’t turn on…I hate not been able to fix these things….I have reverted to my pressure cooker and hand held blender ( which I’ve had for 11 yrs)

さんによる

Ours stopped, it definitely all to do with heat, water steam combo getting to places past seals etc, that cause these things to cease up. For us we got a towel and wrapped around the spindle/blade , use the towel to stop injury whilst holding the blade. And try to ease free the blade by turning it. It was hard at first but eventually freed up. We then connecting the motor /lid to the main metal pot and powered up, selected the BLEND mode and pressed the power button. At first it span slowly and eventually span faster. This has fixed the problem. Moving forward I guess the best thing to do is allow the lid/motor part to air dry with lid off. For a several hours after use, to allow all the possible trapped steam dry out? Also to check the blade spinning visually shine a torch thru the spout , when pressing the blend button you should be able to see it spinning.

Ours failed to spin during cooking program (after we had it about 2~3yrs).

To check if the motor worked at all, switching the appliance to standby, and the spin control set to position “1”, with a bit of wriggling of the canister slightly pitching it to a forward tilt (be very careful), it sprang to life! Slight rocking of the canister around this position would result in interruptions to the motor operation. This confirms that the main problem is the contacts between the canister and the base.

I have had my my mr soup maker for 6 years and I works well. When I have made a soup I clean the jug and blade straight away and leave to dry properly without the lid on. A day later I add a few little drops of olive oil to the blade so it doesn't sneeze up and I'm all set for tge next use. I think users should not leave the soup maker soaking in water and encouraging condensation. I hope to get a few more years out of mine x

Hi Ian

I stripped mine down and found the bearing at the top was rusted up cleaned off the rust and repollished the bearing, apparently the steam rises up into the housing. Now after use we leave it on the draining board for 24 hrs after washing it.

Hope this helps.

Hi All

I have just repaired our MR soup maker model 501015. Same issue as above with the bearing seized to the motor shaft.

It's easy to think that the bearing is just tight when in fact the movement is just the bearing moving in its sprung mounting. The top bearing mounting assembly will unscrew very easily (2 long screws either side of the motor) This allows the armature assembly to be removed. If you then support the mounting assembly it's possible to drift the bearing out of its mount. A few drops of WD40 and a pair of pliers generally frees the seized bearing. Keep working back and forth applying a little WD40 all the time. Eventually it'll slip right up the spindle. Inspect the area where the bearing normally sits and clean any residue off (don't go mad with emery paper or anything, you still need a a good fit on the bearing) Once free, reassemble (not forgetting the washers top and bottom) The bearing will drift back into its mounting with a block of wood and a small hammer. Replace the 2 long screws tightly and check rotation of the motor, it won't be as free as before as the friction of the motor brushes will be in effect. Re assemble the whole thing and you should be good to go.

I concur with the practice of cleaning and drying the motor head after every use, that little drop of olive oil is a good idea too but wipe any surplace off.

Thought I'd just share this experience for any of you repair shop guys.

Regards
