What to do if my Ninja BL642 Blender motor doesn’t start?

  Timothy SnyderSep 12, 2025
  If your Ninja Blender motor isn’t starting, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the container and lid are securely in place and properly aligned. Next, verify that the blender is turned 'On' by pressing the power button and that the plug is firmly inserted into the electrical outlet. Also, check the fuse or circuit breaker. If the unit has overloaded or overheated, unplug it and wait approximately 15 minutes before attempting to use it again. Finally, ensure that the unit is not overloaded.

  Julie Carey DVMAug 28, 2025
  If you cannot achieve snow from solid ice in your Ninja Blender, avoid using ice that has been sitting out or has started to melt; use ice straight from the freezer. Start with a few pulses and then switch to a continuous blending cycle.

Why does my Ninja BL642 Blender show an 'Err' message?
- K
  Kim OrtegaAug 30, 2025
  Your Ninja Blender shows an 'Err' message because it can detect which jar is on the base. You may be trying to use a program that isn't designed for the installed jar. The programs will light up, indicating which ones are available for each jar.

How to make my Ninja Blender motor base stick to the counter?
- R
  Rachel BeardSep 1, 2025
  To ensure your Ninja Blender motor base sticks to the counter, wipe the surface and suction feet clean. Note that suction feet only adhere to smooth surfaces and will not stick to wood, tile, or non-polished finishes. Do not use the appliance if the motor base is stuck to an unsecured surface like a cutting board.
