Stove vent and light

Our light stopped working couple of weeks ago then the other day the vent wouldn't work at all. Any suggestions?

The fan motor also has a fuseable link... The mount for mine instructed the air flow for the motor, so the motor overheated, breaking the fuseable link.

Check for a wall switch that may have been flipped. Our Cherokee has a wall switch that will turn the lights and fan off also.

X2... my bulb had a short life too. Fan is still going. Can't say the same for the bathroom fan. Good luck.

Just a suggestion, but if you need a bulb, go LED. Good light and a lot less heat. Found a match at Wall Mart. Eventually I'm taking the whole TT LED.

Like others posted, bulb has a very short life, LED replacement is much brighter. Fan is not exactly high quality. Ours quit once but it was just a loose wire on the switch. (Switch on hood.)
