Braun KM32B dough mixer - Braun Food Mixers

SOURCE: My braun mixer seems to be powering out when I am

This sounds to me like the brushes in the motor need to be replaced. You may want to call an area shop which rebuilds electric motors and see if they have a replacement for you. They're not very expensive and fairly easy to replace.

I hope this helps and I hope you have a wonderful holiday season!

SOURCE: when making bread dough the mixer dough hook jammed. now the mixer makes a terrible racket when used and will not mix heavy loads, ie dough.

In the mixer there is a worm drive gear, it is a fail safe so that you don't burn up your motor in just this insatance. the gear is nylon and when the machine is torqued too much the gear is designed to give out or strip. It is making a terrilble racket because all those chewed up teeth are now being milled and ground up while you are trying to use your mixer. STOP!!! the part costs about $8.00 USD and takes about two hours to fix. You should put a new gasget in but a lot of people dont want to spend the extra $6.00 buck because you have to buy new grease for this fix also, about $25.00 more. You must clean out all the old gear grease to make sure all the chewed up gear teeth atre out of the machine, then repair with new worm gear part and then re-pack with grease and add the new gasket and close up the machine all fixed. about 3 hours time $50.00 and a roll or two of paper towels. (The grease is real messy)
