Original Blender Jar fell apart
I didn't realize there was a spoon in the blender and it made a total racket as the blades and housing were falling apart. The blender jar, blades and housing are all one piece so my less than 2 month old blender was completely trashed. Rather than spend $100 on a new blender, I spent $24 on a new jar... popped it on the blender in place of the old one and it's better than new! And I'm much more careful using it!

teeth worn out from high speed ice crush
Put masking tape around the coupling and put the coupling in a vise upside down. took the bottom apart and unscrewed the main shaft screw. ITS LEFT HAND THREAD!!! Screw on new coupling and put the bottom back on.The masking tape is just to protect the finish.

The blender jar was leaking...due to chopping ice. Replacement ordering was the easiest!
New jar, and the top fit perfectly...throw out the old. Happy wife!

The washer of the spindle in the center of the jar is worn out and fluid leaks from jar.
No repair work is needed. The replacement jar is 100% identical to the original. It performs as expected. We are 100% satisfied.

The driver (coupling) on my Kitchenaid Blender disintegrated.
I decided to see if I could dislodge the faulty coupling. I placed a screw driver under the coupling and pushed up. It dislodged. Subsequently I found a youtube video that indicated that was exactly what I should do.
I ordered the part from parts select and placed the coupling on my blender. It screws in counterclockwise. It works fine. I am very satisfied.

The old coupling was not removable to replace with new one.
Simply not possible ! I read reviews from other who have tried to remove the old coupling and not one seems to have succeeded. Unfortunately, you have to buy the coupling , 7$, and also the jar which has the incorporated blade, 87$ in order to complete the repair.
Seeing that the coupling can’t be replaced, you are stuck with an expensive jar that you can’t return for refund !
My recommendation, when the blender stops working, don’t waste your money buying these replacement parts, throw the old blender away. I ended buying a Ninja bender for 100$ that works a lot better than the old Kitchenaid.

coupling got chewed up
to replace the coupling you take the bottom off the blender and loosen the screws that hold the bracket and fan -then comes the hard part-the shaft screw is bolted through every bit of the guts then into the coupling. It is a lefthand thread. I ended up having to fabricate a piece of metal that slipped into the top of the coupling (in the teeth.) Then I secured the metal piece-it was just a twi inch piece of steel- in the vise, I held the blender and I got a big guy to attack the shaft bolt with a bunch of pressure and a straight screwdriver. It finally popped and I was able to unscrew the old coupling and replace it with the new. Reminds of when guys put on lug nuts and I have to try and get them off. But I saved at least $100.

the gear on the jar that meshes to the drive motor broke
There wasn't any repair,just placed the new jar unto the drive motor( the jar comes with the gear ) and it was good as new. The comments that I found on some other repairs and parts on the model helped me decide the problem and what part to order. Great experience !

recessed coupling removal
I tried the method of removing the base, putting the coupling in a vise and turning the shaft(reverse thread). I managed to spread the slot with the screw driver to the point it was no longer an option. I looked on You Tube for ideas and found one. With the base completely assembled, take a flat edged screw driver placed against the coupling (clockwise) strike the end of the screwdriver until the coupling loosens, turn coupling off by hand. I had to beat it, but it worked and now so does the blender.

stripped blender coupling
The screw embedded in the polymer coupling had broken free so that it was not rotating on the threads; I had to destroy the old one by breaking it to small pieces, starting with the rim to get it out of the housing. Once off, the re-assembly was simple.

plugged into transformer at 220 when it was 120
I turned the blender over and pulled off the 4 rubber feet exposing the screws. I then took out the four foot screws. The bottom cover comes off exposing the control panel. I undid the three connections and just pushed (gently) the control panel out--might have to exert a little pressure on the two opposing clips that hold the control panel in. Then I popped the new control panel in and reconnected the three connectors. Put the bottom cover back on and put back the four screws and popped the rubber feet back in. WaLa---it worked!
