how to replace the power cord on a KitchenAid K5-A ?

I can take it apart, but the cord goes in through the bottom middle, into a space I cannot see. The wires in the back don't seem to be attached to the power cord. Any ideas?

Here is a link to the KitchenAid service manual: http://lib.store.yahoo.net/lib/mendingshed/kitchenaidservicemanual.pdf

You will notice that your cord is a 2 wire cord, the new cords are 3 wire cords. You will just need to ground out the third prong, and you may need to alter the cord sleeve to get the cord to fit.

Here is a link to the replacement cord: http://www.mendingshed.com/mixercord2.html

The trick is to follow the wires to discover where they attach to. There's a guy on YouTube changing a Ktchenaid power cord but it may be on a different model.
