- goo.gl/S6ZGZ - Amazon is a great place to pick up your Nutribullet, Nutribullet Pro 900 Series, as well as awesome smoothie ingredients and recipe books! They work hard to give customers a great experience and their success speaks for itself.
Well here I am busting the crap out of my fingers on this Nutribullet Pro 900 Series. I am not wure why the activators locked up on this thing but I do not believe it was from liquid being spilled inside it. Anyway I took the tech support agents advice and used some warm water and a spoon. Presto and what do ya know it worked. I wish it was that easy to fix my vehicle lol.

Thanks for your help. Instead of a spoon, I used a flathead screwdriver and hammered it gently. Saved my finger and the Nutribullet now works again.
Anneliese Ellerton best solution! Thanks!
This sounds so stupid but I'm autistic and I get REALLY abnormally frustrated/anxious/scared/stressed when things don't work when I need them to. My Nutribullet stopped working suddenly tonight and I was trying so hard not to melt down. I Googled what to do and after watching a few videos, eventually came across yours. I tried what you suggested and it worked almost instantly. I cannot put into words how grateful I am. Thank you SO much!
Same girly & im not autistic. I wanted to scream! After buying the blendjet & it working for 2x and having to throw it away after spending $50.00 on it.
But yes this fixed my nutribullet balance thank you! ❤
THANK YOU !!! I used a syringe with alcohol.... and after releasing the Activators I sprayed W40. Thank you for taking the time to post your tutorial. You saved us $80b on buying a new one...
Love love love you right now!!! It's been sitting for 6 months without doing anything and I thought it was a lost hope. Works awesome!

Who's watching this now 2020! I had mine 900 for a little over 5 years and panic when I couldn't make my favorites smoothie this morning lol! Awesome video thanks we're back in business!!!
A spoon and some warm water did the trick! I was actually on Amazon getting ready to order a new unit when I googled "how to fix nutribullet" and saw your video! Saved me $70! Thank you for this helpful video!
My Nutribullet had been wrapped up in a packing box for over a year as I was homeless for a while after being bit by a Brown Recluse spider on the side of my left foot and not being found for 6 days while I layed on my kitchen floor. Before watching your video I had sprayed coconut cooking oil on the 3 activators but they were seriously stuck! I left everything for the night then used hot water after scrubbing the activators with soapy water. I ended up using a Phillips screwdriver and a can of soup as a hammer and it finally worked! Thanks so much! Also because I used the hot water a bunch of brownish liquid came through the bottom of the bullet so obviously there is yuckiness going on inside of mine but I am not going to take it apart, it's working and that is all that I care about right now. 😊👍
I can NOT BELIEVE that I've been sitting up here...with this machine, for two years, not working. Was getting ready to send it to a repair shop and clicked on your channel. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH. Screwdriver and hot vinegar.
I was seriously upset with my mother I thought she broke my machine 😣 Thanks a million for your video!
For the 1st time in 4 years, my Nutribullet would not work this morning. Watched your video, used a flat head screwdriver on each of the tabs and voila, it worked again so THANKS FOR THE GREAT AND USEFUL TIP !
I just tried this. Hurrah! It worked. I was ready to junk it after only 3 months of average use. You can just use a cloth soaked in not water, wring it out, put on white clip, then press down with small flat head screw driver, till it releases up and down again. Easy.
Had same problem of Nutribullet suddenly not working. In my case I had had a bit of spillage sometime ago but no problem afterwards. I checked the activators and, sure enough, one was stuck! I followed your advice of using a black tip screwdriver after carefully putting a few drops of boiling hot water and...Bingo! It worked! The activator got unstuck, I didn't damage any finger, so, Thanks a lot for the tip... Keep on the good work!
Gosh! Got up this morning and the nutribullet would not work. I realised that the tabs could not be depressed. I found this fantastic video and I had to use boiling water instead of warm water. I had to use more than just a few drops and, PRESTO!! As you showed us, a little pressure, not too much and it gave in. Brilliant! Thank you soooo much. All my stuff was cut up and ready to go and then I felt so stuck. God bless you!
Wow, this actually worked for me too. I thought I was going to have to buy another! Thanks!
This worked on my 600 series. Thanks !
Bro u just saved my life!!!!!! Just fixdd my magic bullet. U know im such a millenial i was leanin towards just buyin a new one then i thought hmmm lemme youtube it . And boom u the first video i watched and i used water and a flathead screwdriver and painlessly fixed it. U r amazing! Thanks sso much
ha! for sure man! Blend on brother!
I saw this video and at the time my nutribullet 900 series stopped working. I actually did what you said and it worked!!!☺☺😆 So excited thought I would have to buy another one.
+L Brooks awesome job L Brooks!
Hazel Renee ::)7
Your method worked wonderfully for me. Took 30 seconds and my Nutribullet was working again. thank you.
First of all....the time it took to be able to even comment almost made me give up. But I really wanted to be able to comment on your video so I did all the sign up...password...double secret probation crap so that I could add my comments. I found your video after I had cleaned and boxed up my Nutribullet 900. I was ready to return it to the store but after seeing your video I thought, "What the heck". I did what you said...with the hot water and BAM! It worked!!!!! My Nutribullet is up an running and I thank you for the simple solution so that I did not have to deal with taking it back to the store....Thank You. People, this really works!
lol Leslie I understand your frustration with the sign up process. It's too bad that google feels like they need to force an entire social network on people just to let them use ANOTHER social network taht they were already using before. It's kinda dumb and arrogant. Anyways, Appreciate your viewership and AWESOME feedback! Thanks a million!
Your Solution worked like a Charm!!! Few drops of warm water, flathead screw driver, little persistence and no bloody fingers :) Thank you so much for posting the video.
Thanks for this - when I called my husband that my Nutribullet was stuck, he said I should dump it and buy a new one. Then I found your video and fixed mine. Thank you!
Thank You so much for making this video!! I was ready to throw my NutriBullet in the trash I was so frustrated! I cleaned out the areas where the top screws into the base but I didn’t know that those white plastic tabs needed to be able to move. So I did exactly what you said and now my bullet works like new!!!
I am very grateful to you for taking the time to post your video!! ❤
Woohoo! So happy I found this video. Mine got stuck tonight. I just put a bit of hot water and VOILA! I had to use a flathead screwdriver. The spoon wasn’t working. THANK YOU!!!!
Lifesaver! This was my exact issue I was having and this worked like a charm! I used a butter knife to push down the activators and that seemed to work without injury. I also had just one activator that was stubborn. Hmmmm. I've had my 900 series for a few years and this is the first time I've had any issues. Thanks again!
Thank you so much it has made my day, I even set up a gmail account specifically to comment how much I appreciate it!
Lol! It actually work but you use a fork to push down not a spoon.
Damn! Thank you! I've only had the nutrbullet balance since February and two days ago, the buttons froze! I was pissed! And I still haven't heard from customer service! I'm so glad I found you! It worked!
This worked so well!! Thank you so much for sharing!! I wish i had done it MONTHS ago!!
oh and I did Chip my nail a little bit in the process but well worth it!! :)
Linda, Bearsden.Your explanation worked perfectly. I used a small teaspoon and a small flat headed screwdriver.Wonderful. Thank you.
What can I say, but thank you, I was very close to pitching my nutribullet in the garbage until i found this video. I have the classic and the activators were seized beyond belief your info worked like a charm. I used a spoon and spend a good 15 minutes with water and then applying pressure but its all good now.
Thanks man.
nice! awesome job man.
Thank You Very Much, my Nutribullet hast been down for 4 - 5 months and now it's back in use!!! This was a lifesaver!!!!
I saw your video since I had the same model which stopped operating. Your solution was very helpful in fixing the problem. Many thanks.
I had the same problem. Using the flathead screwdriver is a great choice. Instead of "spooning" water into the actuators, I put about 1 cm of warm water in a pan, and out the nutribullet upside down in the water for a few minutes. Then, pick it straight up, and let all the water drain out, don't turn it upright for a while. The stuck actuator loosened up, and it was good to go. Before plugging it in, I let the nutribullet stand upside down for a few hours near a heater just to make sure all the water had drained out....
Thanks a million!! My nutribullet 900 series stopped working. I found your utube and was relieved I did not have to buy a new one. Doing the "happy" dance here!
Cool, I saw my wife had this in the garbage pile and I watched your video and brought our baby back to life!...Thanks...I modified and used a small paint brush to brush on water and a flat head screw driver to push on the activators.
Thank you! First video I watched to troubleshoot my Nutribullet 900 series. I had no idea what an activator was but it worked! I used a butter knife instead and didn't hurt my fingers
I used a butter knife and it worked like a charm, thanks to this video I don't have to buy a new Nutribullet. Thanks!
OMG! Thank goodness I found your video on what to do when the Nutribullet 900 STOPPED working. It was the activators that needed to be cleaned out!! You really have to learn to work with your Nutribullet 900 Series. Do Not over fill - have the lid on tight - Thanks so much for the tip on the "activators." Esther Bingaman
Thanks for your help.
I would agree.... My 900 had issues early in the beginning after purchased. Didn't have any issues with my 600... I did need to replace the blades.
I tried putting some drops of Dawn liquid soap and followed it by spraying some grapeseed oil (one of the videos mentioned using WD40 & I didn't have WD on hand) on it and letting it sit for a few minutes.
It think the oil really made more if a difference in getting the Activators to go up and down.
This also gave me a closer look at inside and saw it could use a could use a good cleaning to remove residue build up.
I Googled "NutriBullet Problems." This lead me to UA-cam videos.
Yep, love the UA-cam videos... Great for answers and for me spiritual and uplifting or inspirational videos.
your a life saver, I had my nutribullet for almost 2 years then this happen thought I was going to have to get a new one then I found this thank you
Omg this totally fixed my bullet 900!!! Thanks a billion!!! I too wish they made more improvements like a super sized jar for making large party quantities or sharper blade to go along with fancy motor. Glad I kept my old faithful too it never gets stuck
lol nice!
Excellent! Many thanks. I stood the Nutribullet upside down in an inch of warm water with baking soda, then Iused the flat blade of a traditional screwdriver to loosen the activators - much easier than a spoon!!
I enjoyed this video. Didn't use any warm water. Just the spoon, and came unjammed right away. Fixed in seconds, and I'm a 62 year old grandmama.
Thank you! I was having problems with my original NutriBULLET. Your solution worked great! Solved the problem easily. I did use a small flathead screwdriver just padded the end to prevent damaging my machine. Thanks Again!
(Update). A few days after successfully releasing the activators using warm water, the pesky things locked-up on me again REAL good; and this time I was 1,000% sure that there'd been no leaks or spillage in the meantime.
And so, moving to plan B, I tried squirting a small amount of WD40 into the 3 activator slots, as some have suggested -- though with the Bullet on its side so no oil ended up in the electric motor, where.... please note based on personal and scary experience!..... it could catch fire -- and pushed down gently on each nylon switch in turn using a wooden chopstick (less likely to slip than a spoon or screwdriver) until all 3 were totally free again. And they've remained so for almost a month now.
So it turns out that if the problem was caused by leakage/spillage you should use warm water, but if it's purely mechanical you should some some kind of penetrating oil (WD40, Liquid Wrench, 3 in 1, etc) to lubricate the 3 sprung-loaded switches. And sometimes, like me, you'll need to do both!
Thanks for staying on the case, NBT!
hey thanks a million for the awesome feedback man. Very good to know!
Use oil the use a butter knife to push down on the white buttons
YOU are a genius!!!!! Warm water, spoon and a flathead screwdriver and I'm back in business! Thank you so much!
Your video helped repair my Nutribullet 900 without taking it apart like another video on UA-cam. Thanks so much!!!!
Worked well with a teaspoon warm water, wet small towel, screwdriver n back of teaspoon. Saved my NutriBullet! Legend
Thanks for your help !
Just fixed my nutribullet , no need to buy new one 😍🙏🏻
Regards from Indonesia 🇮🇩
wow it works. thanks. and I have no idea what makes it get stuck either, I've never spilled any liquid or anything to get inside. but customer service wasn't getting back to me and your video just saved me.
yaaaaay! I was so upset I couldn't get my nutribullet to turn. it would get stuck and had to have my husband come do it for me! very frustrating! glad I decided to check out UA-cam for a solution. first video I saw and went and tried it right away. It's working again! Thanks for saving me money on a new one!
Perfect ! I used a tiny hammer and flathead screwdriver. soft taps with the warm water. Back to it's original working condition. Thank You!
Dude. That totally worked. I used the narrow side of the plug to push it down. Worked perfectly. No injuries here 😎 Thank you!
Thank you so much! Water and a flathead screwdriver! Appreciate your figuring this out for me!
Nice one mate, nearly threw it in the bin until the mrs said just UA-cam the solution. Worked spot on.
I was about to throw out my Nutribullet and then watched this. It's fixed! Thank you!!!
Thank you SO much, I have only had mine a few months and it totally quit working..thank goodness I was able to make my husbands this morning. It's people like you, making these videos, that help us stressing out on what to do :) I did use a screw driver and it was perfect. A big thumbs up!!
Both my wife and I where having the same problem and thanks to you we fixed it. My own fault for leaking fluid! I laid mine on its side on paper towels and added hot water then used the end of closed scissors. Did not wrap my knuckles once. Easy fix.
Worked for me!! I used a flat head screw driver and laid the tip across the activators in the horizontal position. Using this method will save your fingers from getting banged up (like you did in your video).
turn to the side, use very warm side. pour water over using a spoon, push activator using a object such as a phillips screwdriver, or pliers. Have a paper towel or cloth nearby. You can use the cloth over the activator while you use object that your using to push the activator to absorb the water and food particles.
The activators can get stuck because of juice/particles getting clogged. Took 5 minutes. Mine is working. We use our Nutribullet 900 series 1-2x a day for the last 2, maybe 3 years.
Bro just fixed my old faithful w a flathead. Was about to pitch it & upgrade but watched your video & fixed it. Thank you.
I want to thank you, and let you know, that I used your video to fix my practically brand new 600 nutribullet. I know you said you never had a problem with yours, which is why I felt it was important to let you know that I had that exact problem with mine. Like I said, it's practically brand new and there was nothing sticky in there. But your water method fixed it. Thank you.
see Lori, WE are right. They lying to US!!!! Thanks for your awesome feedback! Appreciate your viewership!
WOO HOO it works! I was actually thinking of buying a new Nutribullet 900 but then I thought Id check UA-cam and viola! Thank you so much for sharing this it worked it minutes -- but don't use a spoon, a screw driver is much easier and won't hurt your fingers!
Worked like a charm. Definitely recommend using a dull knife or flathead screwdriver to do the work of the spoon in this vid. Thanks so much, my girlfriend and I are grateful.
Thanks so Much! My husband purchased the Ninja Professional model for Christmas and I started making smoothies the last few weeks. Today I couldn't get my cup to lock into the base. I used your method with the warm water and it worked. I guess smoothies drip into the based and basically glue the the little latch shut.
Thanks!! I about started to cry when mine was not working!! Checked the activators and one was stuck....worked like a charm after I did your trick!!
lol yeah I know what you mean, it's frustrating when things stop working. Glad we could help a little!
Had the same problem. Just watched the video above and I had one sticky activator. Cleared it and it works fine now. Instead of pouring water in just wet a wash cloth with warm water and press it against the activator.
From Wiltshire England. Your solution worked a treat here this morning. Many thanks indeed.
Thanks for the video. I actually have a Nutri Ninja BL450 but had the same issue that you did. I used a screwdriver as you later suggested and it worked perfectly.
Thank you for this video. I know it is a few years old but it is still very relevant to my situation today. I too am having the same exact issue with my Nutri-bullet pro. Although, I had a very helpful customer service rep so I was lucky there. I did try to clean these previously but I was afraid to put to much pressure on the activators because I wasn't even sure that was the problem - now I know. Oh, and I absolutely agree with you that it can't always be due to juice or whatever causing those to stick. My Nutri-bullet hasn't worked since the day I took it out of the box and it was due to the activators not depressing when placing the canister on the base. Thank you again for this helpful video.
Thanks. That worked for my Pro 900. The machine was not activating, & I was wondering what was wrong. Thanks, this worked like a charm!
On my nutribullet it was just a matter of cleaning the one tab that triggers the motor and not the other two which don't seem to do anything other than help seat the cup. Warm vinegar worked better than water. Held it over the edge of the sink. Use an eye dropper to squirt the warm vinegar.
Joanne Logan Had the same problem and noticed the tab had some dried juice on white tab and vala with warm vinegar it came unstuck!! Thanks for your help!!!!!
this was perfect!!!! thank you! it isn't any juice in mine i just bought it and it never worked until these videos.... mine is the 600 and again i just bought it. so, it is definitely something else.
I can't thank you enough. Warn vinegar and a flathead screwdriver fixed the problem.
warm
it worked. thanks alot
Thank You....my bullet stopped and I was so disappointed.....Thank you Jesus it worked!...
Thank you SO much!!! I had 1 activator stuck, your video has sorted it. Warm water and end if a teaspoon, took a few attempts but it SO worked! Thank you again x
Thank you! Mine had stopped working. I checked, and one of my activators was stuck. I did what you said, and now it's working again.
I have to say, I did exactly what this guy did, and it worked! I was leary, but it worked perfectly. Thank you!!!!
Many Thanks. Just did exactly as you showed and it worked perfectly. My mum can stop blaming me now for breaking it.
aww man you are a money saver right now. I have the first series Bullet and it stopped working on me. I did this and now it works. Thanks.
OMG YESS!! THIS WORKED! It took a couple of tries pushing down on the little white tabs with the back of a spoon and hot water but it worked! Thank you
It definitely worked for me submerging the top end in a bowl of hot water. No troubles afterwards.
Thanks it worked. I substituted spoon for a screwdriver and used a dropper to add hot water. It worked!
dude! you just saved my machine! I was so mad when it wasn't working I was gonna toss it!! thanks so much!!
Thanks so much. I went to fix a smoothie and it wouldn’t work. Watched your video and I’m now enjoying my smoothie. Great video.
Wow, I was about to trash mine since it was jammed and not working. After doing this simple steps my mixer works like new. THANK YOU
That worked! Was getting ready to search for a fuse to try the plug before buying a new one! Good old UA-cam!!
Woah. One of the few youtube tutorials that actually worked. Thanks buddy
I generally take apart my classic every 6 months to check for any spillage into the motor area. Those activators are the trickiest part to reassemble the base. They are on springs. I clean them, and put white lithium grease on them so they slide effortlessly and will repel any liquid from binding them.
nice feedback man. Will definitely have to do a video on this. Thanks!
Thanks for posting this!! One of the activators was stuck on my sister's Nutribullet when she went to use it tonight. Some cooking oil, a flat head screwdriver got it loose after a few minutes. Now enjoying the smoothie my sis atarted to make!
Holy s#!t it worked!!!! 😂😂😂 I used an eyedropper to get the water into the grooves, and used boiling hot water... Applied the water and used the tip of a screwdriver to press the points down. And 1 was REALLY stuck! I had no idea!!!! Took a couple applications of water, and finally, I was able to unstick it and press it down! Genius!!!!!! Thank u for making this video!
Hey! Thanks for the info. Mine actually got stuck ON yesterday when I tried to remove the container after making a smoothie, and it almost destroyed the rubber 'gear' that is propelled by the round plastic impeller that didn't stop until I unplugged it.
Tried the few drops of water thing, didn't work. So I took a small flat Rubbermaid container wide enough to fit the top of the 900 mechanism, filled it with about a quarter inch of hot water, turned the motor housing upside and put it in the hot water to soak for five minutes. Still had to use a spoon edge to push the activators down, but now it works again!
It worked great! Thanks. You should perhaps redo the video and suggest two things: Fill a bowl with warm water and turn the bullet upside down, while turning it through the bowl of water. Also, stick a wash clothe inside so you don't hurt your fingers while you're using the spoon. Thanks again!
Thanks for the fix, hoss! My original Nutribullet stopped working like this almost a year ago while still under warranty. They sent me a replacement and told me to throw the old one away. Couldn't bring myself to do that, so it's been sitting on the counter with a bag over it ever since, waiting for me to get around to taking it apart. After checking out your video, I tried the warm water and spoon bit and viola, I now have two working units! Guess I can leave one at the office now... :-)
lol
It worked, thank you! I have the 600 watts one and this solution worked great, and thanks to your video i did not hurt my fingers.
+Paz Bernal ps, mine did have apple juice in there, which made it stick.
Enjoying smoothies at 3 in the morning because of this video. Thanks!
I only used mine for about 10 days. This morning I made my drink and then towards the end it stopped. Man I was freaking because I couldn't find my receipt lol. Anyways I just pushed down on the activators with my finger. It works!! Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video. I had no clue what was wrong with my 900. It was so hard to press the cup down to get it started that I just went back to my 600. Then I gave my 600 to a friend and was resigned to having problems with the 900. After watching your video, I put the base down in a shallow bowl of warm water and used a flathead screwdriver and viola, it worked like a champ! I could not be happier!! It was stress free making my shake this morning! You rock.
Thank you, like you I thought putting water into an electrical appliance was not good! Well hey presto! It works! Thank you so much!
Thanks for this, NBT -- worked like a charm!
Though, since I didn't like the idea of water running down into the motor either, I turned it over and rested the top lip on a towel as I lightly spritzed the tabs with warm water from our plant mister before gently pushing down on each one in turn with the heftiest allen wrench on my hex set (the spoon suggestion made no sense to me!!!).
And, lo and behold, after a couple of go-rounds of spritzing and pushing, all 3 started moving freely again, so I was able to pat down the area with the towel and allow everything to dry out completely in its spot on the counter. Now 'good as new', just as promised!
awesome. Great job man!
This worked for me, I had two stuck activators. I used a dropper for the water and the handle of a butter knife instead of a spoon and gave it a couple good whacks after the warm water and it worked. Now I'm having my pineapple smoothie. :)
This actually fixed my problem i just put some warm water i never believed this would fix it ! Thanks so much !
YOU'RE FANTASTIC. I COPIED WHAT YOU DID EXCEPT FOR NOT USING SPOON. I USED BUTTER KNIFE. THANKS YOUR THE BEST.
This video was, also, helpful for me! I used a few spoonfuls of the warm water like you mentioned, a flathead screwdriver, and a bit of strength. Was worried I'd slip while applying pressure and hurt myself. But alas! Smoothies! Thank you for this informative video!!
