4KN15E1XLC0 KitchenAid Mixer - Instructions

Insert and off you go. No real installation.

Unplugged unit. Took top housing off of mixer (half dozen small screws). Disconnected speed control circuit card from five wiring connections. Removed card from mixer chassis (two screws). When new part came (the next day) I reversed the procedure in about 5 minutes and had a working mixer! Thanks.

no instructions necessary

Removed 4 screws on mixer top. Removed 4 screws to gear box cover. Ordered replacement gears from Parts Select. Removed snap ring. Repaced two gears. Applied gear grease, replaced snap ring & screws. Gears at local appliance dealer were $39 each. Total parts from Parts Select + shipping under $20, received in 3 days!

removed cover annd snap ring removed gear and replaced with new,

This is the tightening screw that holds the attachments into the motor unit of the mixer. Found your web site and reordered 2 replacement pieces (in case one breaks!). Very EZ and user friendly. Thank you!

This was easy once Igot all the parts. The mxer wouldn't mix and when I opened it up the drive gear between the motor and the planetary drive was missing some teeth. Turns out the bearing, which was sintered bronze, had broken so I needed a new gear, new bearing, and the jumping gear had broken the housing so I needed a new housing. The new gearing ( really a bushing since there are no rollers or balls in the "bearing") waws now steel and the molded plastic housing is now cast metal. Some new grease ( I had to buy a quart can of grease to get two tablespooons) a new gasket and put the screws in and we're back in business. Total repair time 10 minutes, total time to get all the parts 3 weeks,

Watched several videos on repair. Noted part placement while disassembling. Found problem, ordered and received parts. Cleaned out all old grease. Greased all parts and reassembled per recommendations, paying attention to the bearing race and washer placement. Firmly tensioned all fasteners, cleaned up and tested.

Got the right parts, very quick delivery, will use again.

Researched the internet for a diagram of the mixer and used that to take it apart, clean everything, then install the new gear and new grease. Works great so far.

Remove top of mixer and remove gear housing. Remove old grease and clean gears. Place new grease and install new housing. Replace top of mixer.

Dismantling was a little difficult, because the snap ring was soooo tight. (Our snap ring pliers aren't the best.) We also bought gear grease and a new gearcase housing. Unfortunately, we didn't realize that the housing had broken until we were removing the old gasket. Once we had all the parts, it was basically a plug and play set up, aside from the snap ring, lol. I really appreciated the schematics that this website supplies. It helped us to know what parts to order.

I used it to make bread - it worked like a dream :)

Removed screws holding top, then removed the switch retaining screws. Removed and replaced switch wires and re assembled cover.

None

Replaced the worm gears. Original were ground down as if they were not seated correctly. Ordered the parts and swapped them out. I do not own a retaining clip removal tool. This was the most difficult, trying to open the clip using 2 needle nose pliers. It made the repair time longer.
