SPEED WENT CRAZY, VERY VERY FAST. NO CONTROL AT ALL EXCEPT OFF
INSTALLED PHASE CONTROL BOARD AND SPEED CONTROL PLATE, BOTH AT SAME TIME
Your DYI video was helpful, especially holding the spring with a cloth. Also good for fine tuning to get the speed exact

short in the wiring had blown the ground plug out,,,contact with a mounting screw head
had to replace the outlet strip and relocate the mounting screw,,,,wiring cord to the mixer was super correct and had to simply follow basic wiring (black to black,,,silver to silver,,,green to ground) ,,, the cord came with the correct mounting bushing already on the cord. Thx a bunch!

Damaged gears in both machines. Been setting around for a few years broken. Gears broke way too soon.
Simply removed damaged gears. Very simple to do. Ordered gears. Replaced gears. Both working well ( so far. ) Machines are easy to dismantle. Just be sure to put the screws back in the holes you took them out of when dismantling...no lost screws. On the smaller model, took pictures of the wire positions to be sure they were replaced in the proper order. Larger model had no wires to remove.

Spring latch snapped off making bowl unstable and unless hand stabilized wobbled too much to use.
SO SIMPLE!!!!! Using a regular screwdriver, remove the remains of the Spring Latch. Place new one over holes and screw new one in place using the currently used screws. May wash off screws first if caked with gunk. OMG!!! TOOOO easy and saved me from throwing out a very terrific 40 year old PRO LINE KITCHEN AID MIXER!! To replace it would have been hundreds of dollars.

Splash from K45 KitchenAid Mixer Bowl
The shield works sufficiently. Note that the shield is not a continuous circle as shown in the picture. This actually can be an asset because it can be installed or disassembled without stopping the mixer of having to lift the head while running.

Control stuck in high gear.
With the mixer being over 30 years old we believed it has going to have to be replaced. However, my husband jumped on uTube and looked at reviews for the problem. Motor was only running on high speed. Reviews said to replace the phase control board. Repair was very quick by just taking off the cover. Removing the old board and connecting the new. Mixer is working awesome once again. In such a disposable society it is great to be able to fix vs trash. Happy Baker.
