Maytag Advanced Cooking System Model Parts

This clamp secures the fan blade to its motor shaft, keeping the blade centered and preventing wobble that can cause noise or reduced airflow. Durable metal construction provides a reliable hold for proper fan operation. What it does:

• Secures the fan blade onto the motor shaft so the blade spins true
• Prevents blade slippage that can cause noise, vibration, or uneven cooling
• Helps maintain consistent airflow for efficient appliance performance
• Works with the fan assembly to reduce wear on motor and blade mounting

• One fan blade clamp (retainer) — exact quantity as shown

• Designed for use with the original fan and motor shaft;
• Turn off and unplug the appliance and discharge any stored energy before servicing
• Use the correct tools to compress or seat the clamp evenly; avoid distorting the clamp

This ventilation damper is the exhaust flap assembly that opens and closes to control airflow from the appliance to the outside, helping maintain proper ventilation and prevent backdrafts when the fan runs. What it does:

• Opens to allow exhaust airflow when the ventilation fan operates
• Closes to block outside air, odors, and pests when the fan is off
• Fixes symptoms like weak venting, backdrafts, or a damper that stays stuck open or closed
• Works as the moving flap assembly in the appliance's exhaust path

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electrical or injury risk
• Basic hand tools may be needed; access typically requires removing the vent housing or grille
• Verify damper orientation and secure mounting; avoid forcing the flap to prevent damage
• Test ventilation operation after installation to confirm the damper opens and closes freely
