Default Fan problem
Brand: Maytag
Model Number: MMV5207AA
Age: 1 - 4 years
Unit began making/smelling bad noises/odors. Traced it to the suction housing and fan area. It appears that the housing melted and the fan was actually off the motor shaft, laying loose in the cavity area. Any thoughts as to why this could've happened. I am going to order the parts from your site, but don't want this to happen again. Also, any advise on how to access that area would be of great help. thanks!

You will have to take the microwave down to get at the fan.

Here is a link to your microwave model MMV5207AA.
