I must assume that you confirmed power at the outlet by plugging in a hair dryer or some other type of appliance. If the outlet works the failure in your Kitchen Aid mixer could be a failed speed switch, motor or a loose wiring connection. In order to diagnose the failure will require dis-assembly and checking voltage, the wiring and switch operation using a volt/ohm meter.

After mixing bread dough the mixer head will not tilt up to get the dough out of the bowl

Push the head down before pressing the button on the mystery mixer. There is probably dough under the hook with it pressing the head up and is locking the catch.

You can pull out the dough around the dough hook to make it easier.

Kitchenaid 525 stopped working while mixing cookie dough

Let it completely cool and then start again. It overheated because your speed was set too low for the heaviness of the dough. I have burned up three kitchenaid stand mixers so far making bread. go up one setting at least; if it is straining, go up another.

You have broken the intermediate gear in the head. This gear can be a bit of a problem to change. Here is the parts manual for the KSM150PS.
The part is probably #6, worm gear.
Check with Kitchenaid on where to buy parts.

Hi Janis.

You have likely burnt the motor. That is the most common fault when the mixer is used for a prolonged time on a compact dough.

The best thing to do is ringing Sunbeam at the number listed on the owners manual, and checking what conditions for repair are offered.

If you have misplaced the manual, then track the number using Sunbeam website: Sunbeam.

Regards.
