Parts for Maytag JGD3536BB00: 02 - Blower Unit Parts

This plenum air piece channels and directs airflow inside the appliance to help maintain proper ventilation and heating performance. It replaces a damaged or cracked plenum to restore correct air routing and reduce airflow restriction. What it does:

• Directs and channels airflow between components to support proper heating and exhaust
• Helps prevent hotspots and uneven heating by keeping airflow pathways intact
• Restores normal venting when a cracked or broken plenum causes air leaks
• Reduces unusual air noises or vibrations caused by a damaged plenum

• One plenum-air

• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) before beginning any service
• Remove exterior panels carefully; watch for sharp sheet-metal edges
• Verify correct orientation and fit before securing; use original fasteners where provided
• If any seals, gaskets, or mounting clips are damaged, replace them to ensure a proper seal

This replacement blower motor restores airflow in the appliance so it can vent properly and dry or heat effectively. Designed to match the OEM function for reliable, long-term performance. What it does:

• Spins the blower wheel to move air through the appliance for proper drying and venting
• Restores airflow when a failed motor causes reduced airflow or longer cycle times
• Helps prevent overheating and poor heating performance due to restricted ventilation
• Reduces abnormal noise caused by a failing or worn motor

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any work
• Basic hand tools required; follow OEM service manual or diagram for correct removal and placement
• Handle the motor and wiring harness carefully; avoid pulling on wires and connectors

This grease filter traps airborne grease and cooking residue from the vent airstream. Replacing a worn or clogged filter helps restore airflow, protects the blower and ducting, and reduces greasy buildup on surrounding surfaces.

• Captures grease particles before they reach the fan and ductwork
• Helps maintain proper ventilation performance
• Common symptoms of a bad filter: lingering odors, poor venting, visible saturation or damage, rattling or loose fit
• Regular replacement supports cleaner operation and effective exhaust

• Disconnect power to the hood or microwave before servicing
• Access the filter from the underside; release the latch or fastener and remove the old filter
• Install the new filter in the same orientation as the original; ensure it is fully seated and secured
• Do not operate the vent without a grease filter in place
