Krups produce a premium product and it would be surprising if they didn't also have a repair or exchange service. Sometimes such a service is a reasonable cost and it is advisable to at least make the enquiry before proceeding further with your home repair.
Early food mixers used a number of series resistors for speed control and the circuit was fairly straightforward to check with a multimeter and any capacitors found are likely to be radio interference suppressors.
Later mixers use an electronic speed control and the best mixers use feedback to maintain the speed and torque when mixing or beating viscous material that would otherwise slow the speed significantly.
Checking/troubleshooting the electronics are beyond the scope of home repair, however, the circuit can be checked to the speed control fairly simply and then from the speed control to the motor and the motor itself. If everything else checks out then it would be reasonable to assume the electronic speed control has failed.
Early electronic speed control used either a thyristor as the control device or a diac/triac pair mounted on a small circuit board. Later types probably use a speed control module similar in principle to those found in power drills...
The speed selector circuit has been compromised but either an electrical short, or disruption from particles that entered the switching mechanism and covered contacts. Needs technical attention.
HI.Let me jusk ask if yiou also tried to connet to another socket.Let me just clarify that the motor itself did not work /rotate as well.Prior to that situation,have you tried to mix more than what is the capacity of your mixer.If possible motor was overworked/that's why its coil was burnt.There. are possibilities then. First might be that the mixers terminals inside will no longer engaged properly that's why it opens the circuit.Second the motor isn't working because the rotor and armatures coil was burnt because it runs beyond its maximum wattage capacity that's why it draws much current beyond the rotors coil capacity.Did you mixed something heavy.the motor works heavier the last time you used the unit?
Don't know a solution, because I am having the same damn problem.
I am very discouraged with this product.
It is a piece of ****.
I am thinking about taking it out back and shooting it with my 270 I bought.
That is the only solution I know.
1 the tooth belt its nearly broken.
2 Problem in some gears
3 If its model A701/A check the back cover, and the pin in the top. its in good condition
