first excuse my poor english. I bought Cuisinart ICE-21 and i totally forgot about the US plug and i needed the the UK plug. I know i needed a plug extension but my husband CUT the plug OFF and plugged it in and it got electric shocked. The inside parts are completely broken and it smelled like smoke. I’m so heartbroken cause i spent last night making the custard base what angers me is I bought the icecream maker in installments. I went to an rapairman and he told me without the original parts (from cuisinart) he cant fix it
I searched but i cant find any replacement parts from the brand i only got the tools like the mixing paddle. I know this is a long post but Is there any way to fix it? Can i find the inside parts? And can i still make anything with freezer bowl please?

Why would your husband cut the cord off?
I think your best bet is probably to buy a secondhand base – [Here’s one on eBay,](https://ebay.us/m/PFnelJ) you can see if they ship to your country.
It’s a 120v device and hubby plugged it into 220v? If so, you fried the motor plus other circuitry. Found this which might help.

The US runs on 120v and Europe is 220v so you’ll need a transformer to change the voltage otherwise you’re going to run eventually kill the motor. I don’t know how common they are to buy, we had one living in Europe but my husband was in the military and the base gave gives them out to everyone for their homes.
Buy a replacement motor base because yours is fried, then don’t use the new one without a step-down transformer rated for at least 150W. Something like https://amzn.eu/d/7MbZiHi
