If the light stops turning on, and the kitchen hood is faulty, Electrolux Hood Repair masters carry out repairs in the following ways:

• Checking the light bulb (with frequent use, it could simply burn out).
• Check the operation of the exhaust fan.
• The reason may be insufficient voltage. It can be checked with an indicator screwdriver. If the socket is working, then the cord is checked for integrity.

Weak traction

A malfunction such as weak traction is much easier to fix. For this, the grease filters are checked first. Most often, they are the reason why the kitchen hood is faulty. Repairs can be made independently. To do this, flush the grease trap. If cleaning the filters did not help, you need to check the draft in the ventilation itself. 

To do this, use the old proven method with a lit match or lighter. Bring it to the opening of the ventilation duct and look at the flame. It should be drawn into the grate. If this does not happen, you should contact an Electrolux Hood Repair and Service specialist who will clean the air duct.

Loud noise

The reason for the high noise that the hood makes can be poor-quality assembly at the factory or cheap materials. Then it’s up to the manufacturer and nothing can be done. But when there is no doubt about the firm and quality, the first thing to do is check the fastening of the hood to the wall.

Self repair

If the hood does not turn on, then the first thing to check is the power circuit. With working backlight, most likely a malfunction in the motor or control circuit. A single-phase motor is not difficult to start – for this, the working and starting phase must be different on the windings. 

To do this, connect the windings in parallel (attach a capacitor to one). It is already included in the engine, so to determine the contacts, you need to look at the instructions on the motor itself.

If the matter is in a three-phase motor, then the windings are connected by a triangle. Instructions for the correct connection should also be on the case. When the motor is working properly, you need to check the circuit for voltage. For this you need a tester. When the motor is running at constant speed, the cause of the breakdown should be sought in the control circuit.
