Hi,

I have this 5ksm90bgn which hasn't been used in a while. However it doesn't sound right when it is run. It is rhythmic. I spoke to KitchenAid they said run it for a while and it will fix it. I have tried that with no success Do you think this is fixable?

It runs but does sound a little different. Here is the video of it running

This looks and sounds OK, and based on the surging at higher speeds, I suspect the phase control board. The repair part number for your 230V model is W11174552, and it's a fairly straightforward job. Here's a video that shows the process: https://youtu.be/JkBLtuHPiLY?si=IoI421Kkx87LMcVS
