The Fan Motor is an OEM part for Whirlpool microwaves. This fan motor is responsible for circulating air through the venting system. It works to evacuate fumes, smoke, and odors from the cooking area and direct them outside through the vent hood.
Causes of a bad fan motor can include excess dust or debris buildup hindering performance, bearing wear over time, or failure of electronic motor components.
Symptoms of a bad fan motor include:
- Inadequate or no air flow from the vent hood
- Strange noises coming from the vent system
- Reduced hood lighting levels
- Overheating or burning smells detected from the cooking surface or vent hood
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
