Magic Chef Range vent hood fan or light not working
When your Magic Chef range vent hood fan or light is not working, start with the thermal fuse, the most likely cause listed for this symptom. A blown thermal fuse interrupts power to the fan motor and light, so test it for continuity with a multimeter and replace it if continuity is absent. If the fuse is good, check the fan switch, on-off switch, micro switch, switch kit, and rocker switch in that order. Any of these switches can fail to send voltage to the fan motor or light. This troubleshooting applies whether the vent hood fan is not working, the range hood light is not working, or both functions have stopped. Disconnect power before testing electrical parts, and use the wiring diagram for your Magic Chef range vent hood when needed. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement thermal fuse, fan switch, on-off switch, micro switch, switch kit, or rocker switch for your specific hood. Repair Clinic carries the parts and testing guidance you need to make the repair safely and correctly.
