KP2671XWH3 KitchenAid Mixer - Instructions

Looked at the schematic for this model on Parts Select. Removed Aluminum band screw, removed the 4 screws that hold the top of the mixer. Lifted the top off. Removed 4 screws and lifted the gear case. Removed snap ring and took off tapered gear. Removed pin and removed worm gear. Picked out the metal, in the grease, from the old worm gear, using a magnet then inserted new worm gear and put it back together in reverse order. There was plenty of grease and didn't need to add any.

Took housing off, removed computer board and disconnected speed control assembly from board. Soaked plastic slide in hot water and freed up mech. Discovered a crack in plastic slide from forcing it. Ordered new assembly and installed. TIP: Keep slide clean of substances that will jam it by cleaning occasionally with water. For a complete cleaning you will have to remove it. Total of 6 easy to reach screws.

Took mixer apart and then the gear compartment. inspected components. Replaced the worn gears and re-greased the new parts. Put the gear compartment back together, tested the operation of the unit and then replaced the rest of mixer, re-tested and declared victory.

remove the cover,take out four screw from gear box,remove the gear box,clean all gears,then you see damage gear,replace it ,install new grease.

I have to thank you at Partselect.com. You happen to help me help other people. Now I have several people bringing me their Kitchenaids to me instead of sending them in. I replaced two worm gears on a Kitchenaid 6 and the Hall sensor on a Kitchenaid 5. Very easy to do. Next week I have another Kitchenaid 5 to replace the motor on. Thankyou again for having the parts I need

Open the case, removed gear cover, removed planetary drive shaft and gear, replaced with new planetary and reassemble.

Following Replacement Part Youtube instructions, I disassembled the mixer and found what caused the sounds and prevented the mixer from operating. The worm follower gear had been ground down by the worm gear. I found that the shaft from the planetary gear had not been adequately greased and siezed preventing the worm follower gear from turning. The worm gear is obviously made of harder material and thus, was able to wear away the follower. I appreciate the your help which saved having to replace a perfectly good/expensive mixer. Thanks.

took off the strap band around mixer, took off the cover (4 screws, took off gear cover (4 screws) took off the retaining ring(used pliers and screwdriver) took off upper gear, took out retaining pin, took off lower gear (becareful to grab the planetary assembly as it will fall out after you take out the retaining pin) cleaned out all of the gear grease (the teeth that were missing were in it. replaced the planetary assembly, lower gear and retaining pin. replaced the upper gear, replaced the retaining ring (used screwdriver and hammer. you have to spread the ring with end of screw driver so it will fit on the shaft then tap lightly with screwdriver and hammer to get it down to the keyway for the ring.) replaced the gear grease with NEW grease, reaplaced the gear cover, replaced the mixer cover, replaced the strap band and plugged it in to test it. IT was quieter than before and works great. i spent less than $30 to repair my 10 year old, out of warranty, Kitchen Aid Mixer. much better than the $32.00 to ship it to factory repair shop and get an estimate to repair. I needed it to make a cake for my nephews wedding. I had my parts in 2 DAYS!!! it was a great experience over all.

the plastic covering the thumb screw cracked almost half way and lost the piece....so the new one is being used to replace this old one...very easy to install

just attached it

Removed one screw to remove deco band around mixer body. Removed four screws under band to remove mixer top. Removed two screws holding switch. Removed wires one at a time putting them in the same position on the new switch. Re-attached switch, mixer top, and deco band. Works perfectly.

removed cover. Removed cover over gears. Used lock washer pliers to remove lock washer. Took out gears. Cleaned metal shavings from old gear and grease. Reassembled using new gear. Took about 15 minutes and saved $$ over sending mixer out for the repair.

I unplugged the mixer, then I removed the Phillips screw holding the beauty ring, then removed the 4 screws that hold the motor housing together. I removed the housing top, and unscrewed the speed control switch. I marked each one of the connectors of the switch (there are 4) 1-4 then disconnected the speed sensor from the switch and the motor. Replaced the new sensor and connected that to the new speed control switch. reconnected the connectors to the terminals I took them from ( 1 - 4 ) screwed it into place. replaced the top motor housing, I screwed that back with the four screws. replaced the beauty ring and screw. plugged it in and tested it and it was like new

I looked on line found the product sent in information and 3 days later was in my mailbox,great service and ease of ordering. thanks marjorie

removed top casing, removed old switch and sensor,and replaced with new ones. It was just a matter of a half dozen screws and unpluging 4 or 5 wires and then reversing the process. Couldn't be easier. thank you
