Watched utube
video how to repair and ordered part, easy

I simply inserted the new beater into the mixer to see if it scraped the sides of the bowl. It fit perfectly and didn't scrape the bowl like the old one did.

Removed old housing, pulled spring clip, slide on new gear and replaced clip. Put on new gasket and housing. Replaced outer cover. Done.

The shield works sufficiently. Note that the shield is not a continuous circle as shown in the picture. This actually can be an asset because it can be installed or disassembled without stopping the mixer of having to lift the head while running.

so easy to remove the switch. I first marked the wires, 1-2-3-4 and then removed them from the old switch. removed the old switch and replaced with the new one and plugged in the wires as per markings. tried it out before replacing the top and it works perfectly. no longer timid about effecting repairs on my own. the diagrams on the website were a great help. this is a great company to do business with. part was here in 3 days.

Unplugged wires from old switch, plugged them into the new switch. The new Switch have the mounting brackets in different places from the old one. Be sure to match up the numbers by the posts with the correct wires

Thank goodness for YouTube. Pretty much followed the process of taking it out. Was easy, but having a video made it a bit simpler.

Found a kitchen aid repair video. Found your site for the part I needed. The connections were not like what the video showed but there were enough connector symbols that I was able to understand where they needed to connect. Marking the connections helped for making the new connections when the new circuit board came.

1. Removed the decorative band then the upper motor cover.
2. Removed the upper gear case cover. Found one of the two alignment pins broken.
3. Inspected gears.
4. Cleaned out old grease.
5. Repacked with new food grade grease.
6. Reassembled.

Taking apart the machine is really easy. I was worried the grease would have spilled all over the places, but when the machine is cool, the grease is solid, so no spill. Replace the parts is quite straightforward, and there are plenty of tutorials on line. The only tip is that the grease used by KitchenAid is dark, and it is not easy to see all the small parts when you take the gearbox apart, so pay attention at what you do and at what you throw away... when I got to put it back together I missed a special concave washer which must have been trapped in the grease. Other than that... it has been an easy repair, the mixer is back up and running and I saved a ton on $$$

Could not get it properly installed. Had to take to a repair center for completion.

I replaced the electronic speed control and the plastic housing with a new metal housing, both fitting perfectly and easily installed. Excellent replacement parts.
