5KSM195PSABM6 (5KSM195PSABT6-5KSM195PSAMI6) Whirlpool Mixer - Instructions

When I took the back cover off I found two parts that "could" be the problem. The speed control plate was cracked which explained the spotty working. I ordered both parts and installed them very easily. The parts fit perfectly and resulted in the mixer working perfectly. I can't say enough about the excellent parts. They were perfect.

After stalling the mixer while mixing dough I found that the motor still functioned but the blade didn't move. I basically took the mixer into my shop along with a digital camera to record any complicated disassembly procedure I might have to deal with for reassembly and proceeded to disassemble the mixer. Once apart, I cleaned the mixer parts, removed the broken worm gear and bracket, and got online for someone that carried the replacement piece. PartSelect sent the replacement within 3 days and now it works great again.

Really no help from Kitchen Aid sources; but phone call to PartSelect solved the problem. Kitchen Aid repair line didn't even know the part #! Thanks to Part/Select, Christmas cookies are being made.

just inserted the new wire whip

To access the interior of the mixer, I first removed the single screw holding the cup-shaped part at the rear. Then I removed the 4 large screws on the under surface of the mixer head. Next I removed the bright metal ring around the planetary gear area by prying it off. I then pried the dish-shaped part off the shaft using a large-bladed screwdriver. This exposed 5 screws on the circumference of the planetary gear. By removing them, one can pull up the gears and see into the area below. I found the worm gear had fractured. By removing 3 screws at the base I extracted it for closer inspection, checking for any loose pieces. Beware of the jelly-like grease. The replacement part goes into position, and one then follows the steps in reverse.

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 video, I laid out an old towel across two pieces of 2x4 which helped keep the mixer head in a position that was easy to work on and also prevented scratches.

No nstallation required, simply attach.
Your website was the only one that made sense. I am blind and follow the instructions with a screen reader. I had no difficulty. It was much easier than this questionaire.

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

Replaced it with a new part. No installation or repair to maching was necessary

Placed pin in the hole...some wiggling had to be done for a tight fit. Installation complete!

The plastic worm gear was stripped,I took it apart first then cleaned out all the old grease so when the new part came it together like a charm.

Just screwed it in

replace wisk order process very efficient and delivery prompt.

I ordered a new wire whip and attached it just like it was the original. WALLA!!! Done.
