791747 Genuine Rangehood Motor Complete for Fisher & Paykel Rangehoods, Extraction Fan Motor

791747 is the genuine Fisher & Paykel complete rangehood motor. It drives the extraction fan, pulling steam, smoke and cooking smells up through the filters. Because it's supplied complete, you get the whole motor unit rather than a single part off it. There's no model list on file, so check 791747 against your rangehood's parts list, or compare the old motor's label and mounting, before ordering.

Fisher & Paykel rangehood noisy or not extracting?

The motor spins the fan or blower that moves air through the rangehood. When it starts to fail, the hood may hum without the fan turning, sound rough or grind, cut out after a few minutes, or barely clear steam from the cooktop. A motor with worn bearings often gets louder over weeks or months before it stops altogether. Before replacing it, clean or replace the grease filters and check the ducting isn't blocked, because restricted airflow can make a healthy motor sound and perform poorly.

Fitting the rangehood motor

Switch the rangehood off and unplug it. If it's hard-wired, the circuit must be isolated and a licensed electrician should do the job. Remove the filters and support the motor while you undo its fixings, as it can be heavier than it looks. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting it. Once fitted, check the fan spins freely and test every speed setting.
