My “professional chef” brother decided to deep clean my mixer. It worked quite well when he started but after cleaning it doesn’t work. I found out later he removed the brushes for some reason and upon putting them back in the mixer does not work. I retried the procedure in putting them in with the missing corner fit, small spring plus long spring with brush attached, the cap all assembled per the instructions I found. Still doesn’t work. Removed the back of the motor housing, no burnt wires, no burnt smells, upon checking all the connections with tester, power is present. So, theoretically the mixer should work….. what am I missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated and will get my brother out of the dog house. Thanks,
For model number KSM5
Hi John, thank you for contacting us. Based on the description, the issue is with the motor brushes. We would recommend checking the springs if they are properly aligned with the brush that pushes against the motor rotor itself. The brushes need to be cleaned with electrical contact cleaner and not with soap. If the brushes are aligned properly and still the issue persists, then you may need to replace the motor brush, part number FIX11753983, to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!

Speed Control Lever KNOB BROKEN
Pulled the Knob off of the new Lever then pressed it on the old Lever. I had to order the whole lever because it was the part nearest the knob in the illustrated parts break-down. I RECOMMEND THAT THE KNOB BE ADDED TO THE ILLUSTRATED PARTS BREAK-DOWN.

motor would run but mixer wouldn't operate: broken worm gear
My girlfriends' stand mixer failed when the accessory drive cap fell into the mixing bowl and jambed the beater, spliting the worm gear. The teeth on this gear are made of nylon and are molded to an aluminum center. This part is designed to fail in situations like this, saving the more expensive transmission parts. Following a repair manu

al I found online, I first removed the rear cover and pulled out the cord strain relief out from the base. Next I removed the drip cup from around the base of the planetary drive. I then used a pin punch to drive out the pin holding the planetary to the center shaft and removed the planetary. The unit was then inverted and I removed 4 screws holding the bottom cover to the gear case, and the 5 screws from around the planetary drive. The bottom cover was then lifted off. Three screws holding the worm gear bracket in place were then removed and the worm gear assembly lifted out. A small pin holds the worm gear to the shaft. I drove this out with a small pin punch and the shaft and worm gear were then removed. There is also a thrust washer on this shaft, and it's location is important. Make a note for re-assembly. The new gear was installed and the entire process reversed for re-assembly. A successful repair completed! My girlfriend would have replaced this $200 appliance, but I was able to repair it for less than $30 including shipping.

Mixer was making clunking sounds and shaking
I removed screws in a sequence that I felt wouldn't further damage the mixer until I had it completely unassembled. When I found the broken worm gear, I went online to find a part. I found an exploded view, but the part numbering was old, and the salesperson couldn't tell me what the worm gear and bracket assembly consisted of, as I only

wanted the worm gear. After trying to drive the pin out of the assembly, and failing, I decided to back online and see if anyone else had a photo of the assembly. Luckily (and wisely) PartSelect,com did and that answered any questions I had. The price was better, too. Reassembly of the mixer was a cinch with the exploded view. It's working like new, and we're hoping for another 35 years of service from it! Thanks.
