The solution will probably be under the back cover. Are the switch contacts touching at speed 1? Are all the wires secure on the black control plate? Has anyone been fiddling about with the speed control adjustments? Possibly the small 4 wire PCB above the black control plate is unwell although normally it would give completely dead or every speed high speed.
Have an electrician test the socket that the mixer plugs in to and see if there is electricity there. You might also plug in something else to test it yourself. If the socket its good, your mixer is "broken".
If the socket is dead, you need to reset the breaker, or replace it.
God bless your efforts.
If this is being used in a commercial setting (I presume it is as it's a D300) the first things I would check is
1 outlet / breaker box /main electric panel 2 Cable from outlet to mixer if the outlet is hot 3 Timer Start Stop switch 4 Motor capacitor 5 Motor (this is ugly as it has a number of electric parts that could have gone bad)
That's the best I can do without further clarification. How did you find it was dead? Did it die while it was in use? Did it make any strange noises? Did it smoke? Do you get any response at all when you turn it on? My first reaction if the cord and outlet are good then I would be looking to the On/Off Timer control switch. It is the most logical if the mixer has not had any other instances of smoking lagging struggling with mixes or advance warning of a problem. It is the most likely answer that a contact is not working. Press all switches and buttons to see if any feel stuck in place. It may be that you only need to open the switch panel and clean out the flour and other gunk. I hope this helps, if so let us know we love hearing from you about a good solution.
Yes could be ..check the fuse in the plug first , then see if a Thermal cut off has taken place if so reset this ,if still dead then chance is the motor has gone , which is quite expensive to fix, you may be better with new machine....Good luck...
You need to remove the motor and find the heat protection fuse on the side of the windings. The fuse is rated at 140 and has a red tip. You might be able to get one from Radio Shack but Viking sells them for $3. Solder into place and take care not to overheat while doing so.
I had the same problem the first time I tried to make a small batch of bagel dough (very small!) I had to send it back for repair and wait.....sorry that the news is not better.
