-[* icon_note] This old A901D started to heavily smoke while running. In the motor electronics, a failed capacitor was the reason for the smoke. It was replaced, along with other electronic components. It was a triac BTA08-600CW, a block capacitor 150 nF, a blocking capacitor 470nF and a resistor 150 kOhm. All components can be had for a few pennies a piece.
-[* black] Remove all accessories like bowl and mixer
