Mixer changed speeds irregularly. Also, the plastic gear housing was cracked in two places.
I replaced the electronic speed control and the plastic housing with a new metal housing, both fitting perfectly and easily installed. Excellent replacement parts.

Cracked gear housing, Broken Bearing and a couple things I didn't expect.
I am VERY impressed With this site . I am very disappointed with Kitchenaid. I paid more for this mixer than I paid for my first car especially when you ad in the attachments. I was mixing dough when I saw what looked like Small metal shavings in the dough... Then I heard a clacking sound so I turned off the machine and cussed...I got the screw driver and took off the top and was really surprised that on a machine that retails for over $550.00 dollars that the gear housing is PLASTIC...And this one had a crack down the side... So I took my trusty Phillips #2 and removed the housing to see that the front Bearing was broken as well so I got on line to kitchenaid and they are determined to continue the process of Shafting you and I with the prices of thier made to fail (Quickly) parts and lubricants.. Thank God for PartSelect. I got a better housing for half the money as well as a Bearing. Now I wish this were the end but remember I said that there was metal shavings in my dough? Well since I was going to have to replace the lube anyway I took apart the planetary gear as well and found that it had been shaving metal from the underside of the upper main housing .. After cleaning I checked and the lower bushing wasn't seated so it had been doing this since I bought it and I didn't know.. So I got a C Clamp and pressed it to where the thing should have been to begin with. If you are going to be working on the thing I suggest you tear it down completely and clean It thoroughly and inspect EVERYTHING closely... I have been eating metal shavings for who knows how long...

bevel gear, bearings and housing replacement
The parts I received from PartSelect were higher quality than the original parts. The bevel gear and housing were originally plastic. The new ones are solid metal. The machine sounds and runs better than it ever did. The drawings from the website made this really easy. This will be my first choise for parts from now on.
