Margaret R Murrells Inlet , SC April 30, 2017 Appliance: General Electric Range Hood JV348L2SS Plastic fan blade broke while being cleaned Removed the brackets that sheltered the fan blade, removed the fan clip (was a little difficult but a needle nose plier was helpful), removed broken fan blade collar. Attached new fan blade and clip. Getting the new fan blade seated on the stem was difficult.
