So when you remove the bottom plate and completely remove the motor, does the new motor come with the electrical cord already attached, and if so, how do you get the bottom plate off and on with the motor on one side of the cord and the plug on the other. Or does it come without the cord and you need to do some soldering?

Step 3

Using a the standard Phillips head screwdriver bit, remove the slotted black plastic covering and then unscrew the one 11mm screw holding the power cord in place.
Unscrew the four 14 mm screws that are in the deep slots. This will release the motor from the base.

Step 4

CAUTION: the silver blade attached to the motor is very sharp. Use a towel or thick cloth to protect your hands for the next step.
Using a towel, hold the silver fan still. Twist the small black rubber wheel that is attached to the top of the blender base to the right. This will remove the wheel for replacement.

Step 5

Use the standard Phillips head screw bit to unscrew the screws in the black plastic with the silver circular discs.
Using the T9 screw bit, unscrew the four sets of two 11 mm screws located on each of the four sides of the motor.
