My motor works well but the paddle shaft on the pan doesn't turn, it's stuck, I applied some oil and let it sit overnight but still not turning, I tried to with a tool and it turns but very hard that way the motor doesn't turn it.
Any idea how to fix it ?
I would appreciate.
Thank you

Dawn dish soap and water mix in bread pot to top of shaft and paddle.
Put bread pot in larger pot with water,don’t let bread pot float.
Gentle boil large pot to heat soap water in bread pot.
While boiling try turning paddle,use wood tongs or no scratch tool so coating is not scratched.
Keep working shaft,should free up.
Repeat process with clean water to rinse, repeat till clean of soap.
Hope this helps. BE SAFE!!

It’s the rubber seal that allows bread mixture to get onto the shaft and bearing which then cooks and hardens. Soak it with hot water and gently agitate until it frees up. I managed to push shaft out by pushing from top and pulling from below allowing it to be properly cleaned. Now I do this after each loaf lubricating the shaft with cooking oil. I dont think there is a ball race, just a sleeve type bearing.
This worked on my Morphy Richards. I immersed the seized shaft in boiling water and forced it to rotate. After a few minutes, it was free of grease and rotating like a dream. Thank you.
Thanks, I was about ready to junk my bread maker until I read your solution.
I tried everything else. Nothing else worked, but this did. Thanks.
I'm amazed. The shaft on our 30 year old bread mechine was getting really hard to turn. I started to take it apart, then I read this and thought "what the heck, I'll try this first". I soaked it in hot water with dawn dish detergent and now it spins like new. Thank you!!

Please give us the exact make and model.
Could be a timing belt. Could you have it on a setting (like for whole wheat) that has a delay for thirty minutes before starting the kneeling. Once we know your model we can give better advice.

5891 Sunbeam machine comes on but blade doesn't move.
Same here sunbeam it turns but the blade doesnt move
We had a similar problem. Use olive oil as a lubricant and set in your chair with just the bread pan, and work it back an forth for a long time. Over time it will loosen up. Be patient, it may take a while. Maybe a half hour. Also test the turning of the motor side for free spinning. On mine which is a Calmdo brand, I can turn the motor side with my hand. The fraction must be low or the motor will burn up. Test this each time you make bread. Very important.

Easy peasy method: Use Dawn Power Wash on the bottom side of the stuck shaft. Let sit for 2-3 mins then run hot water over it. Done!

The motor is just fine in mine. The axis the paddle is attached to, though, is hard stuck. It's like it hits something hard. Definitely not food.
Greetings
-Heat the pan
-300⁰F ish
-With the pan upside-down
-apply food safe mineral oil
-not vegetable oil
-I used sowing machine oil
-to the bottom of the paddle posts
-spin the shafts
-Repeat a few times
Not a permanent fix but works for 6 to 10 loaves. Then repeat as necessary

This didn't fully work for me. I tried it twice and I spun it in the soapy water for a long time. It seemed to be free, but when it started cooling down during the second rinse, both times it slowed in spots. So I took did what windsors recommended and got a short piece of 1" x 1" wood and turn the pan upside down on the counter and pushed the shaft out the bottom. I didn't have to push hard at all and the shaft popped out. I'm in South America so we get a lot of strange brands of appliances here, many of which are from China. So it turns out the inside of my pan was not stainless steel and had rusted. I cut a 1/4" -3/8" strip of the colored (usually dark green) plastic scrubbing pads and got it wet and put 2-3 drops of dish soap on it and shoved it up through the other end of the hole. Holding both ends I twisted and pulled it up and down to clean off as much rust as I could. My shaft was stainless steel, but it had a bit of rust stuck to it so I cleaned it with the same piece of scrubbing pad as well. ThenI took a small piece of paper towel and shoved it into the hole to dry it fairly wall, and I also used it to dry the shaft. Then I used my hair dryer to blow hot air trough the hole and on the shaft to make sure everything was completely dry. Next I cut another small piece of paper towel and folded it over several times until it was about 1/4' wide and several layers thick. I put a few drops of 3 in 1 oil (it lubricates, cleans and prevents rust) all over this strip of paper towel (but not so much that it was dripping) and pushed into the hole from the bottom and twisted it around to coat the inside of the shaft. This is a very light machine oil and it's hardly greasy at all. But I was careful not to push it past the end of the hole and into the pan so as not to contaminate my bread dough. I easily pushed the shaft back in and put the paddle on. It spins as so freely now with just the lightest touch of my finger and I'm so happy! I've been dealing with this issue for almost 2 years. I didn't want to give up this machine because it has a 4.5 hour cycle for sourdough and they no longer sell this brand or any other brand that has a 4.5 cycle so I couldn't replace it. So for anyone else who doesn't want to give up on your machine, don't be afraid to push out the shaft from inside the pan, it's pretty easy. And doing this was a lot easier and faster than the boiling and spinning method. I hope this helps other.... :-)

The paddle does not turn when the pan is not in the machine so it is not a drive belt problem. The paddle spindle does not move. There does not seem to be an oil access point to lubricate the spindle. There does not seem to a way to disassemble the spindle to clean or lubricate it. My machine is a BM07.
