Range / Cooktop / Oven Motor

The Motor-Fan is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool kitchen ranges. Located within the back wall of the oven cavity, the motor fan works to circulate air and remove excess moisture and smoke during the cooking process. Proper motor-fan functioning helps ensure efficient oven ventilation and performance.

Symptoms of a bad motor fan include:

• Excessive smoke or moisture left in the oven after cooking  
• Oven taking longer to preheat and cook due to poor air circulation
• Loud buzzing or grinding noises emanating from the fan

Causes of failure are normally wear and tear of motor windings or fan blade bearings from years of continuous use. Overheating can potentially reduce lifespan as well. 

This OEM Whirlpool part is compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Fixes loud grinding or coffee grinder noise from microwave. Simple DIY repair with 2 screws and wire connectors. Located on top, typically takes under 30 minutes.

Convection fan won't run or makes noise? This motor powers the fan that circulates hot air for even cooking. Moderate DIY repair restores airflow.

Fix a microwave that won't run with this motor AC drive replacement. Controls fan and turntable operation. Direct fit for multiple models. DIY repair.

Fix a microwave clock or timer that won't advance with this AC synchronous motor. Restores gear-driven timing functions. Straightforward repair.

This replacement fan restores proper airflow inside your appliance, circulating air for cooling and overall performance. Replacing a worn or damaged fan helps keep temperatures in check and reduces noise from rubbing or imbalanced blades.

• Circulates air as designed to cool components and move heat/moisture where intended
• Common symptoms of a failing fan include loud scraping or rattling, weak or no airflow, wobble, or the fan not turning
• Heat buildup around the control area or repeated thermal shutdowns can point to a fan issue
• Physical cracks, broken fins, or warping indicate the fan should be replaced

• Disconnect power at the breaker; allow the unit to cool completely
• Access the fan per your model; remove panels/guards carefully and note orientation
• Transfer any retaining nut/clip or gasket from the original as required; seat the fan fully and secure
• Spin by hand to verify free movement; ensure no contact with shrouds before restoring power

Convection fan not working or oven heating unevenly? This motor drives the rear fan to circulate hot air. Moderate difficulty, requires rear access.

Fix convection fan noise, grinding sounds, or fan failure in your electric range. This AC synchronous motor assembly restores proper airflow. DIY repair.

Fixes poor ventilation and smoke removal issues in downdraft ranges. This blower motor removes heat, smoke, and odors from your kitchen by drawing air.

Fixes oven convection fan not working or uneven baking. This single-speed motor circulates hot air for consistent temperatures. DIY-friendly repair.

A replacement fan (blower) that restores airflow in compatible Bosch appliances to support proper cooling and ventilation. Installs in the appliance's air path to help maintain temperature balance and reduce strain on other components. What it does:

• Circulates air through the appliance to support cooling and ventilation.
• Helps cool motors, heating elements, or evaporator areas depending on the model.
• Common symptom relief: reduces overheating, improves cooling performance, and can stop abnormal fan noise when the original fan fails.
• Prevents related faults caused by insufficient airflow when installed correctly.

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair.
• Handle the fan blades and motor carefully to avoid damage; avoid forcing connectors or mounting points.
• After installation, test the appliance functions and listen for normal fan operation; if unusual noise persists, re-check mounting and clearance.

Fix a microwave turntable that won't rotate with this motor replacement. Solves spinning issues when motor receives power but fails to turn the tray.

Fix a range cooling fan that won't shut off or makes howling noises with this motor. Requires removing oven from cabinet and back panel access.

Convection fan motor that circulates hot air inside the oven cavity for even cooking temperatures. Replace if fan stops spinning or makes excessive noise during convection baking.

Tangential blower that moves air through the oven's ventilation and control areas to help keep components cool and vent heat. Replacing a failed blower restores airflow for quieter operation and more consistent cooling around electronics. What it does:

• Circulates air across the oven vent and control area to dissipate heat; symptoms of failure include little or no airflow.
• Helps cool control electronics and nearby components; failure can cause high temperatures or thermal-related shutdowns.
• Reduces noisy or rough fan operation when bearings or motor wear.
• Supports proper venting after use to help the appliance cool down safely.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing or replacing the blower.
• Allow the appliance to cool fully; remove access panels to reach the blower.
• Handle the blower and connector gently to avoid damaging the motor shaft or wiring; ensure correct orientation when reinstalling.

This blower motor moves air through the dryer to help vent heat and moisture so clothes dry efficiently. Replaces a worn or failed blower motor to restore proper airflow and drying performance. What it does:

• Spins the blower wheel to force air through the drum and exhaust vent
• Restores normal airflow when the dryer has little or no air movement
• Helps stop rattling, squealing, or grinding noises caused by a failing motor
• Helps reduce long dry times and overheating caused by restricted or weak airflow

• One blower motor

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repairs
• Installation typically requires removing the dryer front or rear panel and accessing the blower housing
• Inspect the blower wheel and housing for lint or damage while replacing the motor
