Einleitung

This guide will outline how to replace the fan inside the heating component.

    • Unplug the popper.

    • Remove the plastic lid by lifting the lid up.

  2. Sk2mLMGtX3BFyIag

    • Lay the popper on its side.

    • Remove the five 12mm Philips #2 screws around the perimeter of the base with the Phillips #2 phillips head screwdriver.

    • Remove the two 15mm Philips #2 screws in the center of the base with the Phillips #2 phillips head screwdriver.

    • Save the screws you remove from the base in a safe place. They will be needed to reattach the housing to the base.

    • Flip the base to view the interior surface of the base.

    • Unscrew the two screws (10 mm Philips #2 screws) from the base.

    • Carefully pinch the sides of the power switch.

    • Push the power button up and out of the housing.

    • Now that the power switch is removed from the housing, you must remove the wires connected to the power switch.

    • Now that the power switch is disconnected from the popper, you will need to remove the white top.

    • Gently remove the heating component from the popper.

    • Unscrew the four screws (11mm Philips #2 screws) that connect the white top to the housing.

  8. PV1Kn1gIVoOLEJV4

    • Remove the white top from the housing.

    • Save the screws from previous step. You will need them to connect the new housing to the white top.

    • Locate the fan.

    • Pull the fan off the motor firmly but gently.

    • When you pull the fan off the motor, be careful. Do not pull to hard or you will break the motor.

    • You can now replace the fan.

    • If there is debris stuck in the fan, you can easily clean it out from the fan in this step.

    The fan sounded funny, so I have taken my popcorn popper apart, and removed the fan. The center hole in the plastic fan where it attaches to the motor shaft is cracked and the fan needs to be replaced. Do you have any idea where I can get a new one? This seems to be a special part made of a high heat resistant plastic.
