My kenwood multipro 910 food processor not working
Check the power supply: Ensure that the food processor is properly plugged into a functioning power outlet. Sometimes, a loose connection or a tripped circuit breaker can cause power issues.
Safety interlock system: The Kenwood Multipro 910 food processor usually has a safety interlock system that ensures all parts are properly assembled before it can start. Check if all the components, such as the bowl, lid, and blade, are correctly locked into place. If any of the parts are not properly assembled, the food processor may not work.
Motor overload protection: If you have been using the food processor for an extended period or with heavy ingredients, the motor may have overheated and triggered the overload protection mechanism. In this case, you will need to allow the motor to cool down for some time before it can restart.
Fuse or circuit breaker: Some food processors have a built-in fuse or circuit breaker that protects the motor from electrical surges. Check if your food processor has a fuse and ensure that it is intact. If it has a circuit breaker, reset it if necessary.
Mechanical issues: If none of the above steps resolve the problem, there might be a mechanical issue with the food processor. It could be a faulty motor, broken wiring, or a malfunctioning switch. In such cases, it is advisable to contact the Kenwood customer support or take the appliance to an authorized service center for repair.
Can't remove steel bowl from
I am having this problem - I know it's a twist and twist off thing of course as I've used it many times. But now twisting it off is not working and I need to wash it!!! Can't believe this of all things has gone wrong, never mind anything electronic!
Kenwood KM300. How to fit new mains cable ?
Having done it the hard way (!) it is dead easy. All you need is a small screwdriver or similar, approx 2mm by 1mm in cross section. Looking from outside the mixer, where the power lead enters the main body, between the rectangular lead casing and the socket it enters, there is a small rectangular cutout (top right). Push your screwdriver in around 15mm, and then withdraw the lead housing with it - the screwdriver pushes the latch aside, hence you need to remove both as one! With luck, and a wiggle or two, that should be it.
Is is worth repairing a Kenwood Prospero stand mixer km24?
If you have a multi meter check the box caps and resistors for KM 2XX series then replace it whenever required. Some may differ in values like 0.15uF 275x2, 0.33uF 275X2 or 0.47uF 275X2 then resistors may also differ with different models but common to have 1.1k ohms 2watts. Also if caps are open it is good to check the 600V triac and replace it when giving out lower output. I also advise to clean the commutator esp when is is sparking a lot, you may use light sanding and clean it after. Check also if the tachometer is good, there is a resistor-like-coil hidden under a plastic tab with 2 wires. This gives feedback and via a magnet attached to the shaft. Check the motor brush if it is good or worn out. Lastly check all the switches because if one of them is not working properly you wont be able to let the motor run.
K-beater is stuck on our Kenwood Chef and we can't remove it
I couldn't remove the K-Beater as when I tried to turn it the whole mechanism turned with it. I couldn't even remove the splashguard! I was going to take it to the Kenwood factory (a few miles from home) but then I thought I'd give it one more go and this is what I did...
- Next to where the K-Beater attaches in the middle of the circular plate is a lug with a pointed-shape bolt on the end. Remove this with a spanner and the beater plus gear cog can be removed.
- Place some mole grips or wide pliers on a worktop and sit the cogged gear in to it and grip so that it won't turn.
- Now you should be able to remove the K-Beater!
Perhaps someone can suggest how to stop it happening again. I haven't attached anything since but will update this post if I have any other helpful tips.
