Chosen Solution
The convection fan isn’t turning when trying to use the convection setting on the Breville toaster oven. Motor hums (60 Hz I believe) when trying to turn. Everything else works fine. Heating elements, display, etc. Convection fan turns freely by blowing pressurized air across blades with power off or convection setting off. The fan will continue to spin for 30 seconds or more. If the fan is spun initially and the convection function is then turned on, the fan quickly slows and stops.
Hi @cbhuffman, For what it’s worth the fan motor part number is Breville part # SP0010500. I’ve searched online without success as all suppliers state that it is no longer available from the manufacturer. You may have better luck. There is always trying the donor parts option perhaps, i,e, search online for a faulty oven but having a different problem, if you consider it’s worth taking the risk on the fan working OK and the price suits. Just a thought
the YJ58 is an oven fan rated at 220/110v with the exact same specs! you are welcome people!!!LONG LIVE THE 800XL!!!
From your efforts, it sounds like the fan was hanging up on that “crud”. Just do a good cleaning to totally eliminate that “dull knocking sound”. The fan runs fine outside the unit - so it has to be interference making the noise. Update (12/24/2022) That fan doesn’t have a starter capacitor on it, does it?
I had the same problem. I completely removed the motor and took out the 2 screws holding the motor together. I found that the bushings were not worn at all, but the oven side bushing was loose. There’s ring “clip” holding the busing in place. The clip looks like an inside out flower (pedals facing inward instead of outward). I applied some pressure on opposing pedals with a pair of needle nose pliers to reseat the busing and tighten it up. That removed all play in the shaft. After reassembling everything the noise was gone and the motor no longer stalled.
Same here. This is my second, and there will be no third for me. It’s time to move on. There are better companies out there.
