The Fan is an OEM component specifically designed for select Bosch built-in ovens. As a critical convection element, it circulates internal air currents for optimal heat distribution throughout baking and broiling cycles.
Powerful yet precisely balanced centrifugal motion agitates spacious oven cavities with homogeneous warmth. Aerodynamic fan blades expedite even cooking without hot or cold spots.
Causes requiring replacement relate to bearing seizure or broken blade attachments disrupting designed circulation. Prolonged heat exposure may cause premature motor failure or cracked housings to no longer sustain needed speeds.
Symptoms signaling the need for a new fan include:
- Inability to effectively circulate air for simultaneous multi-rack cooking
- Louder than average operation noise accompanied by vibration
- Erratic or ineffective temperature management within cycles
This OEM Bosch replacement fan is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore built-in ovens employing convection methods. Proper reinstallation restores designed air transfer capabilities for perfect results.
