    What’s not working? The knife? 

    Is the chute supposed to be automatic moving back and forth? 

     If the knife doesen’t spin it could be the nylon gear off the motor is shredded and the steel worm gear coming off the blade drive is not doing anything. 

     If it’s the transmission, there’s a latch you pull to get it to switch to automatic, there’s a clutch mechanism inside with a spring on it, if those springs break or wear out, it won’t allow it to switch over. 

     So which one is it?

    Auto has a direct drive DC motor, most likely the board but you can check the brushes and power switch.

    It was working and I try turning on the switch and it didn’t work anymore. So I hook up the switch direct and switch is working. How do I know if the board and brushes are good?

    Test the in coming voltage to board or test voltage to motor.

    Your slicer has 3 interlocks on it to prevent accidental running if not correct.  First make sure the power light is lit.  One is on the cut thickness knob.  If closed it will not run. set the thickness wider to test.  The is another on the blade drive transmission that has to have the blade cover fully locked in to run.  The third in on the bottom plate for the chain protection.  The control board is only for the DC carriage motor.

    What is not working?

    Is the blade not spinning or is the auto driving of the chute not working?
