Kitchenaid Blender 5KSB52SOB4 Touchpad does not respond

The Kitchen Aid Blender Drive Coupler is an OEM part for Whirlpool blenders, specifically designed to connect the motor to the blender's blade assembly. This small but crucial component is responsible for transmitting the rotational force necessary for blending operations. Made from durable materials, it is engineered to withstand the stresses of frequent use.

Symptoms of a bad Blender Drive Coupler include:

• The blender’s blades not rotating despite the motor running
• Unusual noises during blender operation
• Visible wear or stripping on the coupler

Causes of a bad drive coupler can stem from overloading the blender, misalignment of the blade assembly, or simply natural wear and tear from repeated use.

This OEM part is also compatible with KitchenAid and certain models of Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, and Kenmore blenders.

The Foot is an OEM part for Whirlpool stand mixers. This component is designed to provide stability and support to the mixer, ensuring it remains steady during operation. Positioned at the base of the mixer, the foot helps to prevent movement and vibration, which can enhance the efficiency of mixing and protect your countertop from scratches.

Symptoms of a failing Foot include:

• The mixer wobbling or moving excessively during use
• Increased noise or vibration when the mixer is running
• Visible wear, cracks, or deformation of the foot pad
• Scratches or damage to the countertop surface beneath the mixer

Causes of a bad foot can include prolonged use that wears down the material, exposure to heat or kitchen chemicals that degrade the foot, or physical damage from moving or storing the mixer.

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with KitchenAid stand mixers.
