NOOTO S97012038 Bathroom Vent Fan Motor Replacement Kit for Broan 659–688 – 120V, 3000RPM

Refresh your bathroom ventilation with a direct motor replacement

The NOOTO S97012038 Motor Replacement Kit is designed to revive worn-out exhaust fans by swapping in a reliable motor and blower wheel assembly. This direct-fit kit targets Broan models in the 659 through 688 family, offering a practical path to restore airflow without a full fan replacement. Expect a quieter, steadier performance as the new motor cycles air through the bath and helps your vent do its job more consistently.

Whether you’re tackling a noisy unit, uneven airflow, or a fan that simply runs but never quite clears the room, this replacement kit provides a thoughtful balance of compatibility and ease of install. The components are crafted to integrate with existing brackets and mounting layouts, making it a feasible DIY update for many homes and rental spaces.
