I replaced the motor in our KP50. No issues, until I got the motor control in. The contactor arm will not close, or slide off the plastic slide attached to the adjust lever. Can anyone give me a simple process for adjusting this thing so it is off at off, and has all its speeds back...do I need to simply replace the control board too, or has anyone been able to get that contactor arm to ramp up and down the plastic slide the way it's supposed to? As far as I can see, that is the only issue. The governer is good, the motor and brushes are new...just this controller. Thanks for any and all help!

KitchenAid KP50 Professional 5 mixer will not come on at all. When it was put away several years ago, it was reported to turn slowly, making odd noises, so i assumed a gear problem. I pulled the lower gear assembly, cleaned out the tons of packed grease, and looked the gears over, everything turns smoothly, and the gears appeared nearly new. Re-assembling, I tries the mixer, and nothing happened at all. All the wiring appears ok, with good connections. Bad motor?

Was using the the grinder option on my heavy duty kitchen aid mixer and it suddenly stopped grinding and wouldnt turn on again. Is this something i can repair myself or is it better to bring it to the service center. I've had this mixer for a while so the warranty has run out

The lever to lift and lower the bowl is not opperating smooth, it is VERY hard to move. Is there something I need to do? How do I get to it to see what the problem is. Or is the an adjusting screw?

This kind of unit are lubricated with grease paste. If the unit stays
inactive for a long time, or if the motor and gears are overheating the
grease...
