Customer Questions and Answers for Motor by Whirlpool

The Mixer Motor is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool stand mixers. Located inside the mixer head assembly, it provides the power for mixing, kneading, and whisking various ingredients. Reliable operation is needed for consistent results.

Causes of motor failure can include reduced torque from extended use taxing the windings, loose wiring connections disrupting power flow, or buildup within the gearbox slowing rotation speed.

Symptoms include:

• Mixer failing to blend, knead, or whip as intended
• Reduced motor RPMs seen from the mixing attachment speed
• Unusual noises emerge while mixing

This OEM Whirlpool motor is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, and some Kenmore models.
