Amana Range vent hood fan or light not working

An Amana range vent hood fan or light is not working, a blown thermal fuse is the most likely cause, especially if both functions stopped at the same time. Test the thermal fuse for continuity with a multimeter and replace it if it is open. If the fuse is good, check the fan switch, which may prevent voltage from reaching the fan motor. A defective on-off switch can also stop power from reaching the light or fan motor. Next, test the micro switch, switch kit, and rocker switch for continuity. Replace any switch that does not provide a continuous electrical path when activated. Before testing or replacing parts, disconnect power to the Amana range vent hood and follow proper electrical safety procedures. These checks can help pinpoint why the vent hood fan is not working, why the vent hood light is out, or why neither function operates. Enter your model number to find the exact thermal fuse, fan switch, on-off switch, micro switch, switch kit, or rocker switch that fits your specific Amana range vent hood.
