How to Replace a Push Button Switch on an Over Range Hood
- 1). Locate and shut off the circuit breaker that provides electricity to the range hood.
- 2). Pry around the edges of the old switch until it can be removed. Pull out the switch with the wires still attached.
- 3). Study the switch and make note of where the wires are attached. There should be three wires. One wire is a ground, one is the neutral and the third is the hot wire.
- 4). Disconnect the wires from the old switch using a screwdriver.
- 5). Install the wires onto the new switch in the same location as they were on the old one. The new switch should look just like the old one.
- 6). Press the switch into the hole on the range hood where the old one was removed. The switch should just snap into place. Turn on the circuit breaker.
