This is the replacement fan switch for your range hood. When you turn the knob to turn the range fan on, the fan switch is actuated. If your fan will not turn on when the knob is turned, you most likely have an issue with the fan switch. The fan has a main square portion with a red center that connects to the fan control knob. The main portion is approximately 1 inch in diameter. This part is sold individually. Be sure to disconnect the power source from your range before you begin this repair.

Installation Instructions

Morgan from College Station, TX

FR Burner out and range hood switches broken

pulled oven out in the open, unplugged from outlet, removed two white front side panels, removed four screws on sides, unplugged range from harness, removed top, unscrewed two metal clips that hold element in place, gently removed wires from element using a small screwdriver and needle nose pliers and attached each one to the new element as it was removed. Reinstalled as I took apart. For the range hood, I unplugged the hood, removed the covers to the switch box and used a small screw driver to open/destroy the old switch and to save the tinned wires. I then pushed in the wires into the new switch as I removed them from the old one. Should be careful to only snug up the hex nuts as the plastic switch stem will probably break easily with a little force. Read more...

This is the replacement light switch for your range. It comes with the actual switch, and the hex nut that goes with it. The switch is approximately 1 ¼ inches by 1 ¼ inches, and the hex nut is approximately ½ an inch in diameter. When you press the switch, it allows you to turn the range light on and off.

Installation Instructions

Joseph from FLORENCE, NJ

The plastic part of the switch that screws into the hex nut broke off.

First, unplug the range hood, then remove the switch cover plate, held by two Phillips screws. Remove the switch knob and the hex nut on the front of the hood.(In my case, the hex nut had snapped off with the threaded part of the switch in it.) Then gently pull the switch away from the hood and write down which color wire (black, yellow, white) connects to which receptacle on the switch. The receptacles on the rear of the switch are marked L,1,2 and 3. 3 is left blank. Snip the wires from the switch, getting as close to the body of the switch as possible. Pulling them from the push-in receptacles doesn't work. Using a wire stripper, strip off about 1/2 inch of the wire insulation. Twist the exposed wires tightly and insert into the appropriate receptacles so that no bare wire shows. Insert the face of the switch into the hole on the hood so that the threaded portion protrudes. Using the hex nut provided, tighten snugly with an adjustable wrench. Do not over-tighten. Reattach the knob. Most of this repair went quickly and smoothly, but, despite repeated efforts, the threaded portion of the new switch did not fit through the original hole in the hood. As a result, I used a drill to enlarge the hole. The result was satisfactory but the new switch is not seated as well as the original. The knob does not line up exactly in the On, Off, Nite Light positions. Read more...
