I have to thank you at Partselect.com. You happen to help me help other people. Now I have several people bringing me their Kitchenaids to me instead of sending them in. I replaced two worm gears on a Kitchenaid 6 and the Hall sensor on a Kitchenaid 5. Very easy to do. Next week I have another Kitchenaid 5 to replace the motor on. Thankyou again for having the parts I need

Took housing off, removed computer board and disconnected speed control assembly from board. Soaked plastic slide in hot water and freed up mech. Discovered a crack in plastic slide from forcing it. Ordered new assembly and installed. TIP: Keep slide clean of substances that will jam it by cleaning occasionally with water. For a complete cleaning you will have to remove it. Total of 6 easy to reach screws.

I had previously ordered several other gears after I found one of the worm gears stripped. After putting it all back together, the one major gear in the unit that I had not replaced because it looked fine, the bevel gear, also stripped. Learning experience: this is a unit worth several hundred dollars, so don't skimp on a $4 part. Once you work on this thing, you might as well spend a few bucks more and replace ALL the gears - even if they look like they are okay. Furthermore, if you only take 15 minutes to do this repair, as some on this site suggest, you are probably not cleaning the old grease carefully enough. Make sure you properly clean out the old grease to remove any metal from stripped gears, and use a good quality grease to re-pack the gear case.

First and foremost, I am not mechanical at all. I typically refer to parts as thing-a-ma-jigs, and whatca-ma-call-its. When it froze up and started to make a loud grinding noise, I guessed it was a gear problem. I decided to try to take it apart, What did I have to lose? If I couldn't figure it out, I would be down a mixer. I was already down one as it was. It was very easy to take apart and I could immediately see what gears needed to be replaced. Parts Select made it very easy to see what parts I needed. And delivery was lightning fast; the next day after it shipped! I found a PDF on line on how to dis-assemble and re-assemble the mixer. I got it together and it mixed for a few minutes and froze again. I took it apart and realized that I didn't have the whatcha-ma-call-it (worm gear) seated properly. Fixed it and put it back together and put it to the test. Working just fine now! Thank you Parts Select for making this very easy!

took mixer apart down to removal of gear case cover.upon removal of this cover found the bevel gear and hub bevel gear chewed up .removed them both then replaced them both.and also had to solve a clearence problem between the 2 gears they were too loosely meshing. so had to push the hub retainer closer to take up the meshing slack.not sure my repair will hold but i have another set of gears and another solution that will surely fix it.

Removed shroud and gear case top. No snap-ring pliers, so I used two small vice grips, one on each lobe, and spread and "worried" the ring up the shaft. Changed out all ghe grease in case of metal chips. Put it back tegether. Works fine.

Removing the cover of the mixers "guts", it was immediate evident the a major gear had lost a few of its "teeth". Parts Select clearly offered the required part of this $300 mixer for a favorable price. I was fully impressed that it arrived within 4 days or my ordering the part. I simply exchanged the damaged gear and restored the mixer to service and I'm fully impressed with the Parts Select Company for their swift response to my needs.

opened the mixer.. all screws in kitchaid are the same so not to worry... opened up and replaced the gears... and put it back together... diagram helped in that front and rear bearings of connecting gear are the same # on diagram it is easy to confuse when you put it back together, but the item number and description of each helped make sure it was in the right place. Otherwise... time to fix would have been less....

took mixer cover off, took gear box cover off, removed gears, replaced gears, replaced covers, made cookies, no problem!!

Easy repair that replaced the variable speed switch. The broken switch only ran at high speed. To replace the mixer would cost at least $500. The new switch was $45 and was an easy install. I marked the four electrical leads with a Sharpie and loosened the two screws holding the switch. The repair was super easy. It was like heling an old friend recover from an illness.

Remove screw and nut from back of mixer head to release the silver name band. Remove the exposed four cross head screws, (two each side), and lift off the motor and gear cover. Wipe excess grease from gear wheels to expose the retaining ring clip at top of vertical gear shaft. Using small nose circlip pliers, remove retaining ring and bevel gear wheel to expose shaft pin and worm gear. Support the shaft from below and remove pin. Lift off worn worm gear wheel allowing shaft to drop down. The horizontal worm gear shaft can now be lifted out taking care to keep assembled. Carefully clean old grease from all gears and from the gear housing, (note that broken pieces of the old worm gear are in the old grease. Repack housing with fresh high performance grease recommended for worm drives. Cover new and reuseable gears with grease. Reverse the process to reassemble the unit.

We are a pretty handy bunch here. However, the diagrams provided with the part numbers did assist in the disassembly. It went smooth and easy.

I replaced the switch component twice and I still have the same problem. I will purchase a new motor now see if that works? I'll post what happens thanks
