Part W11713858 Wall Oven Cooling Blower Motor Assembly
Purpose
Circulates cooling air around external oven controls.
Details
The wall oven cooling blower motor assembly is a vital dual-speed safety mechanism positioned within the chassis of built-in ovens and microwave combo units. It functions independently from the internal convection fan, running quietly to circulate room air around the exterior cabinet walls, control boards, and door latches to prevent internal electrical components from overheating. Over time, bearings within the motor housing can dry out or seize up completely due to continuous high-temperature exposure. Common failure symptoms include a loud squealing, rattling, or whining noise while the oven cycles, a failure to hold target temperatures, or the appliance throwing thermal cutoff error codes and shutting down entirely mid-cycle.
Included Items
Includes one genuine OEM dual-speed blower motor assembly. Standard hand tools such as a nut driver and screwdrivers are required for installation.
