The fan motor is located at the top rear of the microwave and exhausts the air into the duct system or re circulates into the room through the charcoal filter depending on the installation. If the exhaust fan on your over the range microwave does not appear to be working the problem may be with the fan motor.

If you are cooking on the cooktop it can sense the heat and the fan won t turn off until the thermostat cools. Microwave automatic fan feature all over the range microwaves have an automatic fan feature to help protect the electronic components and also helps the cooking area get rid of excess heat.
