4000153 Genuine Square Single Shaft Motor for Blanco Rangehoods, Rangehood Fan Motor With One Shaft for a Single Blower

Number 4000153 is a genuine Blanco motor with a square body and a single shaft, the style used to drive a rangehood blower. A single shaft motor turns one fan wheel, unlike twin shaft motors that run a wheel on each end. We have no rangehood models on file for 4000153, so compare the label on your old motor and its shaft layout, or send your hood's model number for a fit check.

Rangehood fan not running or noisy?

The motor spins the fan that pulls steam, smoke and cooking smells up through the filters. When it starts to fail, the hood may hum without turning, run slowly on every speed, cut out once it warms up, or grind and rattle as the bearings wear. A burning smell or a fan that needs a push to start are also common signs. Before replacing the motor, check that the fan wheel isn't clogged with grease and that the speed switch and capacitor, if fitted, are working.

Swapping the motor

Isolate the power before you start, and use a licensed electrician if the hood is hard-wired. Take the filters out, then photograph the wiring and note how the motor mounts sit. Transfer the fan wheel to the new shaft at the same depth, refit the mounts and check the wheel spins freely before switching back on.

Questions about this part

How do I know mine is a single shaft motor?

Look at the old motor. A single shaft type has the shaft coming out of one side only and drives one fan wheel. If your motor has a shaft on both ends with two fan wheels, it is a twin shaft type and this one won't suit.
