It's an easy job but can be a bit messy since you need to open the grease-filled gear box. The following Service Manual shows all you need to know:

SOURCE: KitchenAid 325 Heavy Duty Stand Mixer runs with low power & clicking noise

well there is a couple of things to try
1. see if kitchenaid sells the motor or
2. if a local appliance parts store can get the motor
this is the only thing you can do about the motor , the wires in the motor are shot and it will need reconstructing in the wireing, that is why it won't run fast and strong , because the wires have been heated up to much and now they can't create a strong enough magnetic field
but to replace the motor shouldn't be to hard just a little patience
if you need any more help just let me know!

SOURCE: mixer will not start

The motor slides in from the rear, which in held on by just a couple of screws. I would check the brushed first to be sure they are not worn. They are the two big plastic slotted screws to either side. I have seen them actually melt from the heat as they get worn. You may need to clean the armature with a glass brush when cleaning them.

How to remove stuck bevel gear off planetary shaft in KitchenAid 6qt professional mixer

That should just lift off, I'm not familiar with your particular model but all the bevel gears I have seen just drop onto a pin that is just a push fit through a hole in the shaft.

Mixer noisey and not going round freely

Your mixer most likely has a stripped gears, or a combination of stripped gears. The 5kpm5ewh is an international model similar to the ksm5. The gearing inside the mixer will be the same, some of the electrical parts may differ.
Your mixer has a nylon worm gear inside, this is the most common gear to strip inside the mixer. I would recommend opening the mixer and inspecting all of the gears before you place an order.

Most likely you will need the worm gear, which is available by itself (http://www.mendingshed.com/kawormgear.html) or you can get it in the whole worm drive pinion gear assembly (http://www.mendingshed.com/kitchenaidgearassy.html) the whole assembly is a lot easier to replace, and will save you a lot of time. You may also need to replace the grease inside your mixer, KitchenAid recommends the Benalene 930-2 food grade grease, it is only available in a 30oz can (http://www.mendingshed.com/kagrease.html) And you will also need to replace the gearbox gasket (http://www.mendingshed.com/mixergasket.html).
To aid you in your repair, here is a link to the KitchenAid service manual (http://lib.store.yahoo.net/lib/mendingshed/kitchenaidservicemanual.pdf) This will walk you through how to take apart the mixer, replace the gear, grease and gasket, and reassemble the mixer.
Thank you,

I have a burning smell when i turn the mixer on and the gears dont change fast enough.

Get a copy of the Repair Part List for your model from Kitchenaid.com
Remove the motor housing, lift the main motor away from the transmission housing and
test run it at different speeds. If it is fully functional, then all your problems are inside
the transmission housing, most likely the Worm Gear Follower ( you may have to remove
all the gear grease to clearly see it). The Bevel Gear sits on top of the Gear Follower.
Inspect the teeth of the Worm Gear Follower (and also all other gears) for signs of damages.

When turned on gear 1 mixer lately slipped to gear 2 immediately. I took back cover off and cleaned everything out by lifting the electrical element (?) and after mounting everything back on the mixer does...

You need to adjust the mixer speeds. Obtain a copy of the KSM5 Repair Part List from Kitchenaid.com. Remove the screw holding the End Cover and locate the three screws from the Control Plate. All three (2 top left and right, and 1 bottom) must all be adjusted. 1. Loosen the lock nuts enough & Turn the 2 top screws clockwise until they cannot be turned
anymore. Leave the bottom screw alone for now.
2. Use a dab of white paint or paper whiteout to mark the positions of the Phillips screws.
3. Plug in your mixer and Set the speed selector to "Stir".
4. Turn each top screw One full turn couterclockwise (alternating between Left and Right)
Keep making one full turn at the time (for both left and right) until the motor starts running.
5. Put your hand near the Agitator shaft and allow it to brush your finger slightly. Use your
watch or clock and start counting the number of times the shaft touches your finger in
60 seconds. The correct count should be 60 RPM (Rounds Per Minute). If it is less
or more than 60, give each screw 1/4 turn counterclockwise or clockwise and start counting
again. Now tighten both lock nuts.
6. Set the speed selector to "6" and turn the bottom screw either clockwise or counterclockwise
to achieve a speed of 180 RPM.

For your reference, the planetary RPM's for the 5-qt. tilt-head Artisan Stand Mixer are as follows:
Stir speed - 60
Speed 2 - 95
Speed 4 - 135
Speed 6 - 180
Speed 8 - 225
Speed 10 - 2

Obtain a copy of the Repair Part List for your model from Kitchenaid.com
Download the Service Manual :
http://www.kitchenaidparts.be/centers/servicemanual/mixer.pdf

It is not exactly for your model but you can learn a lot from it.
Open up your mixer. Get rid of all the grease. Replace the Worm Gear.
Use fresh Kitchenaid Food Grade Grease on all gears.

Caution: Do not use a screwdriver to pry out the Planetary Assembly.

How do you install brushes for the motor? I removed them and cannot remember which direction they go in. I have tried every way but the motor will not run. It ran before I removed the brushes.

With the head of the mixer upside down. Back end toward you. The right side brush should be with bevel or narrow side up. The left brush should be with bevel or narrow side down.
