I hope those tips will help those trying to install or decide on making a purchase."
"I don't think it came with the nuts that mount it to the metal frame part , but I may have just missed them - they're really small. However, I did put some Marvel's Mystery Oil on the bearing assembly (people say not to use anything that could ever be considered grease - I agree, it gums up terribly). My main reason is the last one I had ended up failing because of water rusting the little tabs that hold the small brass bearings in place for the motor."
"I tried some of the reconditioning tricks that were posted in other reviews, but the original motor just kept shutting down. For what this one cost, and with it being a drop-in replacement, I simply can't knock any stars off."
"Took maybe 15 min to replace the motor (take off cover - unplug old unit - Loosen the 2 screws that hold the fan bracket - Give the assembly a slight turn to remove - and then unbolt the old motor with the new and reinstall)."
"10 minute job to swap out it out (not counting the time to vacuum all the built up dirt and dust from the old parts)."
"The only thing I will say is that for my fan, the motor is barely strong enough to open the 'trap door'."
"The original Nutone fan started making noise after a year or so."
This bathroom fan motor assembly kit includes a bracket, motor and blade. Enter your model number to make sure this fits.

"Original Review 10/2016: The fan motor on a 16-year-old fan had stopped working."
"Not sure what happened to the original fan installed, or the replacement, but both only lasted about 6 months."
"I've done very little electrical type work at all in my own house, and frankly, was a bit intimidated."
"The only thing I found was that the spaces where the plugs come through was different than mine."
"I just had to make sure I order the right model as there are many different model numbers."
"Checked out Lowe's and Home Depot but they only sold whole units (fan, motor, light, and outside light cover) for a lot more than just the motor, fan, and mount cost here."
"I'm in a trailer, and things rarely fit properly when you replace them."

"The little area that is punched out for the plugs to fit into needs to be modified with a pair of tin snips in order for this assembly to fit correctly. Install the new unit, cut if necessary, put in the screw, plug in the plugs, install the reflector, wing nut and bulb. If needed adjust the reflector and bulb to eliminate the noise."
"After unplugging the fan and removing the bulbs, one wing nut and one Phillips head screw are all that need to be removed in order take out the old fan assembly. I simply put the new fan assembly in, put the screw and wing nut back on, reinstall the light bulbs and plug it in."
"This isn't the quietest or most resilient motor, but it's easy to install - you can do it from inside your bathroom or wherever, no need to crawl up into an attic and mess around from above."
"We reduced the internal condensation by painting the inside with a waterproof tile membrane (red guard or hydroban)."
"After a few years, the fan motor itself fails, or goes off balance and the whole thing vibrates loudly. The Broan assembly part number changed from former "B" Assembly 87618-000, to this Power unit assembly (aka Ventilation Fan Motor Assembly) S97017705."
"Save me from having to cut the drywall to install a new fan (fan sizes are not uniform)."
"Super easy to replace and man what a difference after replacing the old motor which finally gave up."
