Sample Model Number Tags
Model numbers can be made up of numbers (1005400, for example) or a combination of letters and numbers (LAT1000AAE). The model number will most likely appear on either a paper sticker or a metal plate. Your appliance's model number tag may look similar to the sample model number tags shown here (model number highlighted in yellow):
OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. Simply put, this means that the company who made your appliance is also supplying the replacement part for it.

Quick KitchenAid Repair
Good on KitchenAid for making this part so easy to replace! It's designed to break first to protect the heavier gears and motor, and is a cheap and easy part to switch out. If that's all I have to do every 14 years to keep the mixer running, great!

The smallest gear was broken, so we got the worm gear and bracket as well as a new gasket and some lube to grease the gears
We disassembled it with the help of a YouTube video from partselect. We saw the damaged gear, removed the 4 screws to remove it, cleaned all the old grease out with rags so it wouldn't be contaminated by metal shavings. We reassembled it per the YouTube video and it works better than ever!! Make sure you remove the roll
... Read morepin before trying to pry off the planetary plate, because I watched a different video first, which didnt tell me that and i bent it a bit.
The mixer would not operate so I took out the brushes. Work afterwards but was a little noisy so, considering the advanced age of the machine and after doing research, I decided to replace the worm gear and bracket.
I followed the instructional video linked to my email order confirmation. Partselect provided one of the best how-to videos I've ever seen. With the right tools, a little patience and the video, I had an outstanding repair experience.
We simply replaced the gear with the new one. It was very easy to install.

Mixer would slip gears under load, finally would not mix under any load
Rather than duplicate previous repair works, I recommend going to this user site and follow their instructions: http://www.neilcrockett.com/mixer1.htm. Once you have done this repair, taking the unit apart is easier to perform this tasks. Order replacement Grease "Benalene 930-2" in the 3.3 oz container and be sure to use the full cont
... Read moreainer to lather all around all the gear components so grease will be available to units for years to come due to heat build up under load. Too, the 3.5 oz container is made for one unit repair job and is available through Amazon. This grease is available on larger quantities if needed / desired. I did order both, a Worm Gear and the Worm Gear and Bracket as I wasn't sure of my mechanical ability to make this repair until I got inside the unit but the worm gear is easily replaced once you clean out all the old grease. The worm gear is a neoprene type gear with all other gears being metal. I assume neoprene is used as sacrificial to save other gears from breaking under loads and years of use.
I watched a YouTube video all the way through, then watched each segment and followed along with the video. It was messier than the professional repair guy, but it worked out fine. This is not a difficult repair when you can watch a video and follow along. It saved me about $130.

Mixer still ran, but seemed to be getting very loose as if gears or a shaft were wearing out.
I followed the video provided online. The model shown was not exactly the same as mine, but very close. The step-wise progression demonstrated on the video helped a lot. I had to double check the video a couple of times which added to the work time....I could probably do it again without the video in under 1 hour. As shown in the vide

Simply removed damaged gears. Very simple to do. Ordered gears. Replaced gears. Both working well ( so far. ) Machines are easy to dismantle.

Hi, our KitchenAid mixer is about 25 years old. It's a 115 volt machine, but we've used it overseas for 17 years, with transformers. So, it's probably received uneven current at times. The motor works but does not operate at slower speeds. When we move the speed control from the "off" position to "stir" or one of the lower speeds, it automatically moves to a fast speed, maybe 6 or 7 out of ten. At the higher end, between 6 and 10, the speed control can be used to regulate speed. Could you recommend what parts I should replace to fix this? Thank you, Steve
For model number K5SS
Hi Steve, Thank you for the question. I suggest replacing the Speed Control Plate,PartSelect Number: PS11748567/ Hope this helps!

Our mixer makes an extremely loud squeaking noise when it's mixing anything. It makes the usual "gear" noises when it's running without any resistance against the blade, but as soon as the blade meets any resistance it begins making the squeaking noise. I took it apart tonight and inspected all the gears, but none of them looked like they're worn or damaged in any way, and there was more than enough grease to lubricate them. The mixer works fine. It never locks up or hesitates to mix.Do you have any idea what might be the problem? the noise is very annoying.
For model number KSM150PSWW
Hello Les, thank you for your question. Since the gears are not broken or worn, and are properly lubricated, we would recommend checking the planetary housing for any scratch marks from screws that have worked their way out a bit. Gently remove the blank collar around the planetary gear housing and check the five flat head straight screws — they may have loosened to varying degrees, and may be touching the planetary housing. If the screws are in tight and not worked out, you will want to check the center shaft and pin Part Number: PS354304 and the agitator shaft Part Number: PS11740538. I hope this helps!
