This mixer was found, in apparent brand-new shape, discarded at our trash transfer. It had a stripped worm gear.

I disassembled the mixer head, removed old grease and cleaned interior completely. I noticed the worm gear was broken and concluded some lazy person hadn't bothered to find out why this otherwise pristine machine didn't work. I ordered the parts from you, installed a new worm gear, repacked with food grade grease, put on the new gasket, reassembled and turned it on. TA DA!!! Since I have a 50 year old KitchenAid in fantastic condition, I gave this one to my neighbor. She cooks for about 15 people on Sundays and has never had a stand mixer until today.

No rotation

I was very happy with the customer services department and the support I received in identifying the part I needed for the repair. I received an email confirming my order with all details. I do wish you had a more cost effective shipping alternative, like Priority mail.
The repair went well and the mixer is back in business, for making those Chocolate Chip Cookie and brownies if you know what I mean.

Thank you
Ron Ashby

My wife was complaining of a loud grinding noise.

I replaced the brushes. I didn't realize that I've put one of them wrong. Reminder for next time the brushes have to touch the rotor of the motor. It took me a little bit to understand but the brushes can go in and not touch the rotor. It works very quietly now. Thank you PartSelect for your infos and knowledge.

Broken worm gear

Knob fell out of the front of the mixer into the bowl and jammed the beater. This caused the motor to strip the plastic worm gear. Open unit to investigate and found about 4 teeth missing out of the worm gear. Ordered a replacement. Installed the new gear once received in about 30 minutes. Wife is now happy again. Just need to make sure you pack enough gease into the new gear before reassembling the unit.
