Hotpoint Range vent hood fan or light not working
When your Hotpoint range vent hood fan or light is not working, the thermal fuse is the most likely cause. A blown thermal fuse interrupts power to the vent hood, so test it for continuity with a multimeter and replace it if continuity is absent. If the fuse is good, check the fan switch, which controls voltage to the fan motor, followed by the on-off switch that supplies power to the fan or light. A defective micro switch, switch kit, or rocker switch can also cause a Hotpoint range hood fan not working or vent hood light not working symptom. Turn off power before testing or replacing any component, and check each switch for continuity. If the fan and light stopped working at the same time, focus first on the thermal fuse or on-off switch. If only the fan or light is affected, its related switch is more likely. Enter your Hotpoint 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 appliance.
