worm gear replacement
watched instruction video (from Part Select), the demonstration was close enough to enable me to repair the mixer. Newer mixers are disassembled differently.

machine not running-broken worm gear?
After I dropped a part of the shield into my mixer the motor screamed and I unplugged the mixer. I found out I had a broken worm gear. I then order the part and per the helpful video I did the repair and I also changed the brushes my mixer is up and running waiting for the holiday baking season thanks to Part select.com Very easy Instructions to follow I am very happy with the results. Thanks Barbara

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

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.

The head of my machine was sagging
and I thought replacing the hinge pin would fix it, I used an awl to push out the old pin then used the new pin to push the old one all the way out. That did not fix the problem. Went to a store to look over a new one and saw that the screw under the head at the hinge point on the new machines was not screwed in tight. Turns out that screw is the "bumper" for the head against the neck, so the head is held back by the screw. FIXED
