Brandt Convection Fan Mechanical Noise

Oven makes a loud rattling or scraping noise when the fan is running.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Loose fan blade, debris caught in the fan, worn fan motor bearings, loose fan mounting screws.

Safety first: Turn off the power and allow the oven to cool before removing the fan cover.

Inspect fan blade: Remove the fan cover inside the cavity. Check that the fan blade is tight on the shaft. Tighten the retaining nut if it is loose.
Remove debris: Clear any foil, food particles, or screws that may have fallen into the fan area.
Check for wobble: Spin the fan by hand. If it wobbles or grinds, the motor bearings may be worn. Replace the convection fan motor assembly.
Secure mounts: Tighten any loose screws holding the motor bracket to the rear panel.
