Just finished putting new fan motor on OWB -3 now -22 predicted tonight. Why does it always happen at the worst time?

I think it is a sub rule of Murphy's law. What kind of OWB do you have and how hard is it to change a fan?  The third time I was into mine I rewired the back of the stove so that I could put a cord on the fan and added brackets so it drops on without bolts. Makes changing or maintenance of a fan fairly easy and allows me to take it inside to clean or oil it.
Life is too short or my list is too long, not sure which. Dec 2014

I like that idea.  Very clever.
