Nicholas W Mc Cormick , SC August 06, 2016 Appliance: Model OLDER WHIRLPOOL MODEL Bad hood light and fan switches Replaced Note: new 2-stage fan switch had to be wired differently...check with ohm meter before installing. Also had to ream out mounting hole...new switch mounting shaft was larger than old one. This work should be done by a qualified electrician. Glad I was one. 2 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes
