Replace a Broan Bathroom Fan Motor
Bathroom fan motors can become noisy, inefficient, or even fail over time. Replacing the motor in a Broan bathroom fan is a relatively simple task that can be completed in about an hour with the right tools and materials.
Tools and Materials
- New Broan bathroom fan motor
- Phillips head screwdriver
- Flathead screwdriver
- Wire cutters
- Electrical tape
Safety Precautions
Before beginning any work, turn off the power to the bathroom fan at the circuit breaker panel. Also, make sure that the fan is completely cool before working on it.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Remove the fan cover. This is usually done by unscrewing the screws that hold it in place.
- Disconnect the wires. Use a flathead screwdriver to disconnect the wires from the motor. Make sure to note which wires go where so that you can reconnect them correctly later.
- Remove the old motor. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the screws that hold the motor in place. Once the screws are removed, the motor can be pulled out of the housing.
- Install the new motor. Insert the new motor into the housing and secure it with the screws. Make sure that the motor is properly aligned before tightening the screws.
- Connect the wires. Reconnect the wires to the motor, making sure to match the colors of the wires to the terminals on the motor. Secure the wires with electrical tape.
- Reinstall the fan cover. Replace the fan cover and secure it with the screws.
- Turn on the power and test the fan. Turn on the power to the bathroom fan at the circuit breaker panel and test the fan to make sure that it is working properly.
Tips
- If you are not comfortable working with electricity, it is best to hire a qualified electrician to replace the motor for you.
- Make sure that the new motor is the same size and type as the old motor.
- If the wires are damaged, they should be replaced before connecting the new motor.
