Default Circulation Fan (Three voltages?)
Brand: KitchenAid
Model Number: KSSC48FKS00
Age: 1 - 4 years

The 12 volt dc circulation fan stopped running. There are four contacts in the connector and all are "open resistance" to each other. With a voltmeter I measure the open circuit voltage at the disconnected plug to be 11, 12, and 13 dc volts respectively.

I know the motor is bad but my question is why are there three voltages being sent to this motor. (will send the part number in next message).

I live in Mexico and have no choice but to jury rig a solution until I can travel to the states to get the correct fan motor.
