Jenn Air Range vent hood fan or blower not working
If your Jenn Air range vent hood fan or blower is not working, start with the exhaust fan motor, fan motor, blower motor, or vent fan motor. A motor that hums but does not turn usually has worn shaft bearings. If the motor has oil spouts, add oil to the bearings and check whether the fan turns freely. If lubrication does not help, or the motor cannot be lubricated, replace the motor. If the motor is quiet, or the blower still will not run, inspect the blower wheel and housing. Turn off power to the range vent hood, then try spinning the blower wheel by hand. Remove any obstruction and check that the wheel is not rubbing against the housing. A blower wheel that remains difficult to turn after clearing debris may need replacement, along with the blower wheel and housing if they are damaged. These checks can help with a Jenn Air range vent hood fan not working, vent hood blower not working, or range hood fan not spinning. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement motor, blower wheel, or housing for your specific Jenn Air range vent hood.

If your motor has oil spouts, try adding oil to the motor bearings to get the fan to turn freely. If lubricating the motor bearings does not solve the problem, or if the motor can’t be lubricated, replace the exhaust fan motor.

One possibility is that something is caught in the blower wheel. It is also possible that the blower wheel is rubbing against the blower housing. To determine if the blower wheel is at fault, try spinning the blower fan by hand. If the blower wheel does not spin freely, check for the blower wheel for obstructions. In addition, ensure that the blower wheel is not rubbing against the blower housing. If the blower wheel is clear of obstructions, but it still doesn’t spin freely, replace the blower wheel and housing.
