My wife borrowed our daughter's Oster 5838 bread machine and used it for rolls. She went to use it tonight for more and now the beater paddle won't turn. The shaft in the pan that drives the paddle will not turn. My wife also has an Oster machine and the shaft in the pan of her machine turns by hand.
The timing belt probably broke. I had a similar incident with a bread machine and this is what I did to fix it. Remove the pan and turn machine upside down. Unscrew the 4 rubber feet from the corners and use a screwdriver to remove the bottom screws. Take the metal bottom plate off and take your machine to your local auto parts store and "try on" timing belts until you find one that fits snugly. Put everything back together and you should be good for another 20 years.
How do I repair a Regal Kitchen Pro model K6725 bread machine? It worked fine for years, but now the spindle that is supposed to turn the spatula won't work. The motor sounds fine when turned on and the spatula can be manually turned with no problem, but won't turn with motor running. Is there a belt in the bottom of the unit that may have broken or come loose?

My advice is to try to find someone who fixes small appliances...they may not advertise, but ask at your local thrift store if they know of someone.
When our bread machine spindle broke after a long time of use and I couldn't find a repairman, I put an ad in the local paper wanting an unwanted bread machine and got several calls (mentioned it to my brother who said he had one he got at a garage sale and had never used so I now have one that's a different brand but still can use the previous recipe book). So, ask around. Unless you know how to substitute parts in small appliances you'll probably be frustrated trying to repair your present one.
My Hitachi#HB B201 won't knead. Is it repairable?
I purchased a used older model Welbilt bread maker. The machine only cycles up to kneading. Is there a way to get the machine to cycle through rising, baking, and cooling?

My Hitachi auto home bakery HB B201 stopped working. It stopped working after smelling like hot wires. There could have been a power surge. The control panel seems to work as it counts down the process, but no heat or motor moving. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this?
By Blake
I was given a automatic breadmaker. The machine is new, but never heated and never could make bread. I also failed to make bread and I have much interest in doing so if I can get help with my machine, if they can fix it.
I await your response.
Thanks.

My WelBilt bread machine has stopped working. When I turn it on the paddle moves just a bit and no more. What does it need?

I have a Toast Master bread machine, Model #1197s. When I hit the start button it will not start.

I have a new Hitachi HB-B101 bread machine that has been sitting for 2 years. I tried to use it today, but it will not knead.
By Laura
My bread pan keeps popping out of the cradle during the kneading time. Is there any way to fix this?
By Catherine
I have Philips 9040 bread maker.
It does not start kneading even it is cool and even after delay timing.

My all in one machine turns on and beeps, but does nothing else. I have tried holding the start button in longer.
I also tried pressing button 2x but nothing. No turning sounds either. Any ideas before I pull it apart?My Sunbeam machine doesn't warm up, so it doesn't bake anymore. I used to make french bread with it numerous times. Now when I touch the top of it while going through the french bread cycle, it does not warm up as it used to when it was baking. Does anyone know if this is something repairable or will I need to get a new one?
I just got a used Welbilt bread machine. How do I eject the blade from the machine. The eject button does not eject the blade. Am I not doing something right?
The left hand knead blade does not turn. Is this right? If not, how do I fix it?
I use our Panasonic bread machine to mix and knead the dough. It has only been used on the dough cycle. Twice now it has stopped working before the yeast has been released into the dough.
Can it be repaired or should I junk it?I have an unused Silver Crest bread maker IAN 38170, which I picked up in a charity shop. When I turn it on to do the initial heat up suggested, it trips my RCD. It seems such a shame to bin it, does anyone know if there is a reset button or equivalent? I have been told by Lidl, where I have discovered it was originally sold, it is too old for them to repair and my local electrician says the part which has a minor fault cannot be reached.
Failing that would anyone like a gift of: baking mould; paddles; instruction book; recipe book. I just hate throwing things away and would be pleased if even some parts could be used.
During baking a basic bread, I noticed that my kneading blade keeps on spinning until 20 minutes before completion of the baking and would not stop for the bread to start it's rising cycle. I switched off the machine and turned it on after some minutes.
It still continued spinning. I also observed that the body of the bread maker was warm as if it's baking. Please I need a fast solution.I have a Sunbeam bread machine, and recently it sounds different when mixing. After the process there are bits of black rubber falling out of the bottom of the bread machine. What is this? How do I fix it without buying a new machine?
