The Blendtec Total Blender is an all-in-one blender released in late 2004.

What's wrong with my Blendtec Blender?

My blender only runs for about 2-3 seconds. It's supposed to run for 2-3 mins. And it stops after 2 seconds and says "overload". Is it because of the speed sensor or the carbon brush?

Mine also says “overload” and there is smoke coming out of the rotor. Any ideas?

Hi, the problem is in the blenders rotor, it's shorted out. I can fix it for you if you have it.

Francisco Aguila, what a great idea. How about you fix one and make a guide from it. Post it on ifixit, so we can all learn how to fix our blenders.

Try removing the bottom cover. Sometimes the cooling fan blade comes loose and the blender will overheat and shut down (and might display "overload" on the screen).
