Kenwood KM800 Major Classic Stand Mixer - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
Kenwood prospero km262 stopped working
In my case, capacitor C1: 470nF (on the circuit board) proved to be the cause. It measured only half its normal value. It's part of a voltage divider used in place of a transformer. Replacing it solved the problem.
Came already across the same problem in another circuit.
Smoking Kenwood Chef A901
I have just had the exact sme problem.
It is caused by a 1 watt resistor on the board.
You will also find that very possibly the large capacitor, a 0.1uF, has aso burnt out. This capacitor would have cracked open down the side and that is where the smoke came from.
parts can be replaced by a repair man and possibly a better solution is to have the board replaced, They are availiable still.

Have an A901E model and
My chef A901 started to smell and leak oil. I started to dismantle it but found that a service manual is needed. Kenwood will not supply this for "Health an safety" reasons. can anyone help please.
Hook stuck in kenwood major;
Force it out carefully. One person wrap tea towel over hook and turn forcefully, anticlockwise. Secnd person use a long handle screwdriver to hold the Kenwood still - wedge between the housing where the hook inserts. Hold Kenwood still whilst twisting the hook. When it comes apart, clean 'hole' and hook shaft thoroughly with WD40 / oil. Might need new hook if too damaged. Ours is ok seemingly.
