John C. for Model Number NuTone, WA6500, revision C I purchased a SOCKET (AP5614006) for my NuTone range hood (WA6500) and installed it. Order #4180584. The connections were OK and it works fine except we get a "fishy" smell from the area where the new socket is! I checked all connections and everything seems fine but we still get a fishy smell which reminds me of overheated wire but the light works fine and is not loose. Is it possible that this could just be a temporary "new part smell"? If not what else can I do?
Answer Hello John, This smell normally dissipates. If you leave the light on for an hour or so, it should hasten the smells' departure. You can also wipe down adjacent areas with a white vinegar solution. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, March 19, 2014
