Magic Chef Range vent hood fan or blower not working
If your Magic Chef range vent hood fan or blower is not working, start with the exhaust fan motor, fan motor, or blower motor. When the motor hums but the fan does not turn, worn motor shaft bearings are the most likely cause. Some older, larger motors have oil spouts, so adding oil to the motor bearings may help the shaft turn freely. If lubrication does not fix the problem, or the motor cannot be lubricated, replace the exhaust fan motor. If the motor is not the issue, inspect the blower wheel and housing. Turn off power to the range vent hood, then try spinning the blower wheel by hand. The wheel should move freely. Grease or another obstruction may be preventing movement, or the blower wheel may be rubbing against the housing. Clear any obstruction and check for misalignment. If the wheel still binds, replace the blower wheel and housing assembly. Enter your Magic Chef range vent hood model number to find the exact replacement motor, blower wheel, or other part that fits your appliance.

In addition, ensure that the blower wheel is not rubbing against the blower housing.
