Doug O Rock Hill , SC December 13, 2021 My Kitchenaid blender was leaking oil. For most 20-year-old KitchenAid Blenders the grease packed inside begins to break down into UCK and oil which will drip through the old gaskets. After breaking down the case and removing all of the old grease and oil I cleaned all the gearing and shafts. I replaced the case gasket, the 2 shaft gaskets that the lower orbital gear slides up, and then the o-ring on the main shaft after everything was installed. I did a break-in run on med speed for one hour and then tapped the chrome ring off of the lower unit and flipped the blender over and checked the 9 mounting screws to make sure they were still tight. Reinstall the ring and the blender is ready for the next 20 years. The Kitchen Aid site as well as others will give you the parts diagrams, as do many other parts sites. It's good to have a copy for future reference. Here at Doc' Shop we use APPros parts on many of our jobs and have always had successful job outcomes. They have good pricing and FAST shipping. Good luck with your KitchenAid repairs as this is surely a DIY job. Doug Read More... 1 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes Tools: Screwdrivers

Bryant L St. Cloud , MN October 25, 2022 Appliance: KitchenAid 5 Qt. Stand Mixer Architect Series - Tilt Head KSM150APSCS0 The bowl wouldn’t stay in the stand. The beater shaft moved up and down the beater caught and broken the worm gear. The bowl was defective, the extrusions on the bottom weren’t distinctive enough and would pop out the base. The beater shaft was loose causing the beater to move up and down. There was a fiber spacer missing. I was a Montgomery Ward appliance technician and I knew exactly what the problem was. I fixed it all in about 1 hour with the parts from this site. All the parts are correct OEM and very reasonably priced and quick shipping. It cost 100.00 to repair. Thanks ?? Read More...
