Repairing Ventilation Fans
A fan is essentially an electric motor with a propeller or drum-like blades. With bath and range-hood fans, the easiest fix for a motor that has burned out or stopped running is often to shut off the power, open up the fan, and replace the fan motor. A project like this usually doesn’t involve doing any electrical wiring—most fan motors simply plug into a receptacle mounted inside the housing.
