When your IKEA range vent hood fan or light is not working, start with the thermal fuse, the most likely cause listed for this repair. A blown thermal fuse interrupts power to the fan motor and light, so test it for continuity with a multimeter and replace it if the circuit is open. If the fuse is good, check the fan switch. A defective fan switch can prevent voltage from reaching the fan motor. Next, test the on-off switch, which controls power to the light or fan motor, followed by the micro switch, switch kit, and rocker switch. Each switch should show continuity in the correct position. A failed switch, loose wire connection, or damaged wire harness can leave the IKEA range vent hood fan not working, the light off, or both functions inoperative. Disconnect power before testing or replacing parts, and use the wiring diagram for your model when checking voltage. Enter your IKEA range vent hood model number to find the exact replacement thermal fuse, fan switch, on-off switch, micro switch, switch kit, or rocker switch for your specific vent hood.

A defective fan switch may not allow voltage to reach the fan motor to run it. To determine if the switch is defective, use a multimeter to test the switch for continuity. If the switch does not have continuity, replace it.
A defective on-off switch may not allow voltage to reach a light or fan motor to turn the light or motor on. To determine if the switch is defective, use a multimeter to test the switch for continuity. If the switch does not have continuity, replace it.
To determine if the micro switch is defective, use a multimeter to test the switch for continuity. If the micro switch does not have continuity, replace it.
To determine if the switch kit is defective, use a multimeter to test the switch for continuity. If the switch does not have continuity, replace the switch kit.
To determine if the rocker switch is defective, use a multimeter to test the switch for continuity. If the rocker switch does not have continuity, replace it.
