Kitchen Basics 101 3.3 Inch Diameter Vent Fan Motor Direct Replacement for Nutone Broan for 40933, 86933, 8693000, JA2B104N

This was a perfect replacement for my fan. I replaced a 60 year old REDMOND motor that was very loud using the detailed drawing. Except for the straight plug on the new motor vs the angled plug on the old one (minor issue for me) it went smooth. I reused the existing mounting hardware. Just take note of which direction the plug faces on the mounting bracket. The new motor is much quieter and works perfectly.

I purchased as a replacement for a very old ceiling Nutone exhaust fan motor of the 50s and 60s. While it fit and bolted up and plugged in great it was the wrong rotation, my mistake. I installed this motor so I did not return it. There was nothing wrong with the motor, it ran quiet with no issues. It was just wrong for my application.

works fine for us. Used on an old kitchen fan. The motor is really quiet, especially compared to the old one (from the 1960s) It has some quirks. The biggest one being it turns in a different direction than the original one. Which means the fan blows smell in instead of sucking it out. Thankfully I married a MacGyver and he was able to bend the fan blades the way they needed to be so it worked. Keep in mind the direction of revolution when you purchase this.

Attempting to replace my 50-year old kitchen exhaust fan resulting in a PERFECT FIT!! Certainly lowered fear of purchasing online with this supplier!!

I was excited to receive the replacement motor for my ceiling fan, but unfortunately, it arrived defective. When I spun it manually, it made a clanking sound, which became even worse when I powered it on. You can see what I mean in the attached video. Based on the reviews, this motor seemed reliable, and it probably is for most people. However, my experience was different, as I ended up with a defective unit, so I’m giving it 1 star. I tried contacting the vendor for a replacement, but the process through Amazon was so confusing that I gave up and decided to return it instead.

the fan works great. It was a perfect replacement and deivered quickly with no issues.

Direct replacement for my kitchen exhaust fan. Much cheaper than replacing the entire fan unit. Few screws and it was in place of the old one, and fixed. Much quieter than previous failed unit.

Too small for bathroom.

It turns off more often than not which resulted to fire fighters coming in to our apartment because it caused smoke detectors to alarm. I can’t find other option though.
