I was using meat grinder
I just got the same problem too. There was a little piece of fat in the meat and it stopped the grinder. I removed it but the attachment rotates a full turn and then stops. The same happens with other attachments even under practically no load.
I accidentally touched the beaters of my Oster
Generally the problem is only the beaters. They may no longer be aligned in a perpendicular line and are slightly bent, just enough to make them click. You may have to replace the beaters to get satisfaction.

I am doing a 110V to 220V conversion on my KSM 150 kitchenaid mixer. Do I need a RFI filter too ?
It will run fine without the filter if you choose to bypass it. If your 110 volt filter is not up to handling the 230 volts the filter will only go bang and smoke it won't harm anything else. I have looked at the capacitors on a 230 volt filter and they are 250v - 275v so just read what's on your 110v filter. What you need to change is the armature, the fields and the small phase board under the back cover..
Kitchenaid professional hd mixer does not turn on
Check that the motor brushes are not worn out. Under the black screw caps one each side of the motor. Note that the brushes have one corner shaved off, they only fit properly one way.
Remove the back cover (one screw at the top) and check for a broken or fallen off wire. If that doesn't solve it then you are going to need a multi meter and start testing for a break in the circuit.

Mixer overhaul
Maureen it's probably not a good idea to put to put all that personal information here on a very public forum. Contact Kitchen Aid and ask them for contact information for the longest established authorised repairer in your locality.
I have a KitchenAid KSM90 Stand Mixer and it will only run on Speed 8. Any ideas?
Your description is very incomplete. Does it not start turning until the lever is at position 8 or does it run at high speed from the moment it starts at position 1?
If it's not starting until position 8 then the problem is probably mechanical and will require some parts to be replaced or adjusted.
If it starts on high speed at position 1 then it's likely you need to replace the phase board under the back cover at the top.
Whatever you decide to do check the carbon brushes first as worn out brushes can sometimes create funny speed problems.
I just replaced worm wheel
Check the carbon brushes, look inside the hole, it is keyed, the brushes only go in properly one way. Match the missing corner on the brush to the blocker inside the brush holder.
