Your mixer is leaking grease not oil. It is a simple fix. First you have to open the machine and regrease it. Once you have done that try replacing the gasket. Also, this particular mixer cannot be left on its side (some people store it sideways in a cabinet or under the sink) doing so will cause the machine to leak as well.

There could be one of two things wrong (or both). You might need a new seal or you might just need the machine to be regressed. Also, never keep your mixer stored on its side as this will automatically allow the machine to leak grease.

The speed on your KSM90 is controlled by three pieces: a Governor Assembly (35), a Control Plate Assembly (36), and a Phase Board Control (39/40 depending on the voltage of your machine). You just need to determine which one of those parts is bad and replace it. I have attached a schematic to this post so you can easily see where these parts are located within the machine. Once you locate the bad part you can either bring it to an authorized repair center (or you can bring it to them to fix it before you open it up) or you can purchase the items direct from us and we will be more than happy to send them to you.

If you remove the meat grinder, does the mixer still work? It could be that the meat grinder is jammed.

You might have also blown a breaker. Have you tried plugging a lamp or something else into the outlet to make sure it's still working?

Look for a reputable dealer that repairs KitchenAid mixers. It is worth the little extra money to keep it going well. I had a much needed repair 15 years ago...... it was 8 years old then, and it is still in great shape and working superbly!!

Try some oil... ...or liquid dish detergent on a wet rag and rub around that area..

YES..... It's a KitchenAid... it's worth putting a little money into, and you want to guarantee that everything is in tip, top shape. I had mine fixed 15 years ago.... it was 8 years old then, it is still working great!! It is worth it and will last..... who knows? I'll probably pass this down to my daughter!

You need a reputable repairman. My gears were stripped after trying to mix a very thick dough. It would only work on high speed. After it was repaired.... I still use it, all the speeds work, and that has been 15 years ago. My mixer was at least 8 years old at the time of the "stripping".

Sounds like a problem we had years ago. We put too much pressure on the motor by mixing a very thick dough for cookies. It stripped the "gears" and couldn't be used on slow.... it would instantly go to the fastest speed. We had to take it to a reputable appliance store that does repairs on KitchenAid products. I'm still using mine and that has been 15 years ago. It still works great!!

Hi,

As the weather is getting warmer for many people their freezer and/or refrigerator do not work right because of a dirty condenser coil...there are also many other things that can go wrong. If you are hearing a clicking or buzzing then check out the last two tips.

Check out this tip that I wrote about that... it is a great place to start trouble shooting your unit...and something that you can do rather then calling a repair person to do a simple thing for you...

The brushes need to be seated onto the armature. Try going from off to high quickly and tapping the motor housing. Once the motor starts, let it run for 15 min plus to seat the brushes. Keep clear of or remove beaters whille trying to get the moror running. In brief, the brushesaren't making good contact with armature. Good Luck

Hola EBANY780, veo tu pregunta es acerca de su licuadora, pero le fue anunciado en la mezcladores KitchenAid. Mi solución puede funcionar, pero posiblemente no.
Usted ha dicho, "Yo pongo [en] mi pincel" - Supongo cepillo de la licuadora de motor eléctrico(s), así que recomiendo que pruebe lo siguiente. Sólo hay una manera de volver a instalar los pinceles y eso es lo que tanto el asiento correctamente en colector del inducido o no se va a cualquier jugo "al motor. Véase la ilustración de abajo: Si te has vuelto un cepillo de 90 grados demasiado, no encaja correctamente y tendrás el poder para el motor.
En esta ilustración se debe permitir volver a instalar los pinceles con confianza. Buena suerte, espero que esta ayuda. Howard, Burke, VA, EE.UU.

Hi,
I just took a look at my wife's... all you do is line up the pin and the slot in the attachment. Then push the attachment up over the pin and give it a twist... this will hold it on....just that easy!!
