Arietta Range vent hood motor is loud or noisy
If your Arietta range vent hood motor is loud or noisy, worn exhaust fan motor bearings are the most likely cause. Turn off power, then gently wiggle the motor shaft. It should not move side to side. Even slight movement indicates worn bearings. On some older, larger Arietta range vent hoods, the motor has oil spouts. Lubricating the bearings may help the fan turn freely, but replace the exhaust fan motor if the noise continues or the motor cannot be lubricated. The fan motor, blower motor, or vent fan motor may also be failing and causing your vent hood fan to make noise. If the motor shaft is steady, inspect the blower wheel next. A worn or loose blower wheel can slip on the shaft and scrape against the fan housing. A loose or damaged fan blade can cause the same loud, noisy operation. Check that the wheel or blade is tight and properly positioned, and replace it if worn. Enter your Arietta range vent hood model number to find the exact replacement motor, blower wheel, or fan blade for your specific appliance.
01 - Arietta Range Vent Hood Exhaust Fan Motor
The exhaust fan motor bearings might be worn out. To determine if the motor bearings are worn out, try wiggling the motor shaft back and forth. The motor shaft should not move at all. If the motor shaft moves even by a slight amount, the motor bearings are worn out. Some older, larger motors have oil spouts. If your motor has oil spouts, try adding oil to the motor bearings to get the fan to turn freely. If lubricating the motor bearings does not solve the problem, or if the motor can’t be lubricated, replace the exhaust fan motor.

The blower wheel might be worn out and loose on the motor shaft causing it scrape on the fan housing.
