KitchenAid K5A wiring
I have opened the motor head assembly and see several frayed wires. I need video help or a repair manual to show how to disassemble and replace wiring. Any ideas on where to get help?
I am familiar with repairing gears as I have done it on newer models.
I also read a suggestion about replacing the controller with the K5SS one.
I have downloaded manuals from this site: http://www.mendingshed.com/kitaidparts.html
It is also a good place to buy parts if you need them. Videos are readily available if you search YouTube.

See if these help. If you can't access the documents, you may have to join the Yahoo group "WACEM".

P.S. I believe these mixers us 18-gauge wire internally.
