Maytag Range vent hood fan or light not working
If your Maytag range vent hood fan or light is not working, start with the thermal fuse, the most likely cause. A blown thermal fuse can interrupt power to the fan motor or light, so disconnect power and test the fuse for continuity with a multimeter. If it has no continuity, replace it. If the fuse is good, test the fan switch, which may prevent voltage from reaching the fan motor. Next, check the on-off switch, micro switch, switch kit, and rocker switch in that order. Any switch that fails a continuity test can keep the Maytag range vent hood fan from running or the light from turning on. Inspect the wiring and connectors for damage or loose connections while testing these components. The correct repair depends on whether the fan, light, or both have stopped working, but these switches and the thermal fuse are common failure points. Enter your Maytag range vent hood model number to find the exact replacement part for your specific appliance, including the right thermal fuse, fan switch, on-off switch, micro switch, switch kit, or rocker switch.
