    • Place the newly bent paperclip onto plastic lever weaving it through the divots. Make sure that when the main spring comes down it engages the paperclip to push the lever down.

    • When the plastic lever is pushed down, the magnet engages and the timer on the toaster starts. As long as the paperclip stays glued on, the toaster will function fine because the magnet actually holds the toast down. The plastic lever just engages the magnet. The paperclip's main purpose is to extend the lever so it will be able to engage.

    • Use an adhesive to bond the paperclip to the plastic lever. A plastic welding adhesive such as JB weld will work best but super glue or even a hot glue gun will work as well. As long as the paperclip stays glued on, the toaster will function fine. Make sure to fully cover the paperclip with the adhesive.

Hello Jake Williams,

I'm very glad to find this article because I'm trying to repair my Kitchen Aid kmt422cu1... but my model looks very different from the one in your tutorial.

If I can just open my toaster I think I can clean it out and use the paperclip fix...

Will you please help me?

My email address is:

I hope to hear from you soon and I appreciate your consideration to help me.

Best wishes for the holidays.
