Stove hood fan
A few weeks ago I went out to the Montana and I did something stupid.
I fired up all four stove elements to help the furnace heat up the Montana faster. I know this is not wise but I only was going to do it for 5 minutes. I got working on my entertainment centre renovations and before I knew it, 30 minutes had passed and the stove hood was hot because the fan was off and no heat had been removed.
I shut down the heat and then tried the hood fan. It did not work and I was pretty sure a fuse had been cooked. I was right because today I got around to fix the fan and these hood fans are a cheap throw way little 12 volt motor with a hard wired 4 amp fuse taped to the motor. I bi passed the fuse and the fan worked so I will put an in line fuse holder with a 4 amp fuse and we are good to go.
