I’m do this every few months and it is so worth it! Can whip up Ethiopian food for a quick and easy dinner. My house smelled amazing today!

Broke my mixer on a particularly hard piece of brown sugar. Looking for repair and parts help.

A few weeks ago I was making some cookies and didn’t realize that the chunk of brown sugar was as hard as it was. Mixer got stuck and then I heard a kind of snap.

It still turns around, but stops at any kind of resistance. Even while creaming room temp butter. After some research, I’m thinking it’s the worm gear and am planning to learn how to replace that.

Any other thoughts or advice on where to look for repair instructions?

Model number is kp26m1xwh

Thank you!

ETA: I was worried that I had the older worn gear, but it seems like according to my serial number it was built in 2020, so I should be good with the available parts, right?

Also, does anyone agree that it’s probably the worn gear? Or what else could it be. Want to make sure I get all the parts I’ll need.
